Re-purpose Folgers canisters for Halloween

Folgers® Coffee is good and its canisters can be crafted and recycled into storage containers.

If you're like me and find the best part of waking up, is Folgers in your cup, then you probably have Folgers canisters at your home. We drink a lot of Folgers at our house. And, I have many canisters.


After you select a design, you can personalize it, too.

I use to throw them in the recycle bin, but they come in handy to re-purpose them. They can be used for so many things.

Cookie canister
Filling bird houses
Pouring salt on ice
Holding puzzle pieces
Holding hair supplies
Holding make-up/nail polish
Holding small toys
Holding nuts and bolts
Holding small tools
Holding office supplies
Holding some leftovers
Used to water plants
Used for First Aid supplies
Holds snacks
Holds candy

You get the idea. There's so many things, the list could be endless. But, the canisters are red and green. So they need to be decorated. Folgers helps with this by providing templates and ideas. There are two sizes of canisters and they have that covered, too. Plus, you can personalize the canisters.

I hope you can find a canister to do this project. But, if you miss Halloween, try to find one for Christmas. They have plenty of templates for other holidays, too.
