I just finished a 32 oz can of coffee.  This sounds stupid, but I took the label off and it looks so nice and shiny I don't want to throw it out.  I was thinking of making a planter out of it with moss and fake foliage.  Any other ideas????

I'm sure it will get all rusty soon.

I used to put charcoal bricketts in one and put it in a closet to absorb dampest and scents.

Long ago, far before the Internet, I saw an ad in a magazine for can covers. I ordered them and made beautiful cans! They really were exquisite! I've never seen this cute kit again. I must have gotten 10 multi-size covers.

I drain grease in Folger container and keep under the sink.

@Chicagoan  So funny...  I use an empty detergent bottle to do that, and keep it in my garage.

@CelticCrafter OH NO!!!!!!!!!!   Thankfully my husband and I are well aware of what is in the bottle, and, it's on the floor of the garage away from everything.

@CelticCrafter  lol... too funny! 

I keep it under the sink, it is amazing that it doesn't smell and is very handy for draining grease.  I also put my used coffee grounds in it, so it cerainly isn't pretty to look at... lol  I buy the big club size Folger's at Costco/Sam and use another empty one for my tall cooking utensils that I rarely use and keep those under the sink also.
