spiceye Posted February 24, 2011 Author Share Posted February 24, 2011 thanks - really need plastic thou, can't see glass ones lasting very long - and not very child friendly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narnia Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 (edited) I got mine, free of charge, from a local toy shop.They come full of small toys, such as wind ups, or bouncy balls. The shop was really pleased to have someone take them away for them.You could also try newsagents................all those sweet jars, usually free of charge. Also, some shops, such as Wilkinsons, or Sainsburys, have them, as the mini sharpies pens come in those jars.Good luck!

mps09 Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 as with most of these fab ideas..... they come from TTS! http://www.tts-group.co.uk/shops/tts/Produ...l-Storage-Jars/ They also do a lovely trolley to store them on.... Of course, free ones from a toy shop are always better Our children love these - I have recently put them onto an old bookcase so that the children can freely access the craft contents... and the results have been amazing! although they do need checking how many pom poms they want to stick on a piece of paper!!
