We have lots of old Bertolli jars for rice/lentils etc but they don't make them like they used to - they're rather small now.
We've also got lots of Roses and Quality Street tins for stuff in the kitchen. I tend to take home nice tins from work if no-one else wants them.
Also, our Important Bits of Paper are all in plastic pockets in a big folder in the kitchen so they are to hand if needed
Lastly, our pending box is also an old shoebox covered in wallpaper. I got a nice roll of Laura Ashley wallpaper very cheap about five years ago and it's still got some on0
