Yes, you can find the matching lid to your Tupperwear!

December 19, 2011 by respaced

Storing Tupperwear and Gladware containers in just one drawer — and finding the matching lid — universally enrages us all. Place an old CD holder sideways in the drawer to make finding the matching lid infinitely easier. Find old CD holders for pennies at Goodwill. Then group your Tupperwear containers so all of the square containers are nested, all of the circular ones are nested and all of the rectangular ones are nested. Group lids of the same size together on the CD holder. Now putting the Christmas dinner leftovers into Tupperwear won’t cause hysterical weeping.

    This is brilliant! I’ve gotten rid of several of those CD organizers over the past year that might have been reporposed.

    thanks for the idea!

      Hi Moreen, wish I could take credit for it, but Better Homes and Garden beat me to it. 🙂 I love finding ways to repurpose old throwaway objects. Now if someone could just find a super cool use for all of the old CDs that were stored in that holder ….
