Eye-pods - new uses for disposable lens pods?

Tricky_Vicky

I use daily disposable contact lenses and each one comes in its own little plastic pod. Although the plastic itself is recyclable, I was wondering if anyone has a bright idea for re-using them?

(I know it is an extravagance, but its my one little indulgence and a girl needs some treats.);)

are they big enough to mix paints in for kids

I was just thinking the very same thing! Spooky! Mind you I wasnt thinking about kids I was thinking about my dad who's taken up painting recently

If I'm thinking of the ones Tricky Vicky's talking about, they're tiny. Thinking of mixing paints in them made me chuckle :rotfl:

They're only just bigger than the contact lens (which if you've not seen them before is just bigger than your iris)

Can't think what they could be used for though...

Think my dad uses these as pill boxes.... if they're the ones I'm thinking of.

Stick them to a margarine tub lid or similar and use them for keeping earrings or buttons in.

I don't know if they would be suitable (ie if they have snap shut lids) but I saw a suggestions somewhere for putting dabs of make-up in them, to carry in your handbag.
