I have sugar and flour in 2 others I have. I frankly much prefer glass containers for storage, in the microwave and for carry-ins at my church. They seem cleaner to me. The smaller ones are great for organizing smaller things.

Now adays I just use them for saving up loose change. When I first started work 40+ years ago we used empty Jam Jars to drink out of.

I freeze food in them, use them for cotton balls in the bathroom, etc. And I recently went to the Container Store, where they were literally selling clean jars for storage. So I think it's the right path! It also feels very chic, in my opinion. I just started using jars in the past 4 months or so for storage of everything.

I decided to soak and de-label some glass jars yesterdays for the first time ever, and I didn't really have a reason... just seemed like I might come up with something. Creepy.

Because I run across so many items I hate to throw out and for which I later find a use. And no, I'm not officially a hoarder, yet; however, Depression-Era folks kept every little piece of tin foil they could scrounge and were considered wise. I think I'll follow their lead.
