This is the fourth (alphabetically) of a 20 volume set. I give the set as a whole very high marks, and this particular volume is a solid addition to the set.  There are lots of articles in gardening magazines about container plantings, but this is a nice collection of general informationThis volume, Container Gardening, begins with a look at the versatility of containers.  This includ...

Over the years, I've bought several different brands of containers.  A few years ago, I stumbled upon one of the best brands called Lock & Lock.  Lock & Lock Containers do just what they say, the sides lock into place to create an air tight and spill proof container.  Of course, the silicone seal inside each lid helps as well.  I love these containers for s...

I always get tired of trying to keep my nice plastic containers and lids together.  As soon as Ziploc started selling disposable containers I was immediately sold.  Recently, I purchased Ziploc's 2 Pack of Large Rectangle Disposable Containers.  My son was having a party at school and I was in charge of making cupcakes for the whole class.  I did not want to use my nice ...

Plastic containers never last long in my home.  Either the lids get lost or the bottoms get stained and warped.  This led me to look for plastic containers that were affordable.  That way, if a few pieces got lost, it wouldn’t be a big deal.  So, when I stumbled upon Rubbermaid Durable Containers at Walmart I grabbed a box without thinking twice. I love Rubbermaid...

This is a great book that I use to help me get ideas on putting together plants in containers, including window boxes, hanging baskets, and many different large and small containers.  I have used this many times to help me put together a great display for around my yard and garden. Not only does it show how to put the containers together, it shows how to use them in the landscape and how y...

 I wanted to purchase different size storage containers for my closets. I also needed storage containers for my bathrooms. I went shopping at Walmart because they had a large selection of sizes and the prices were very reasonable. I was able to find all the sizes that I needed. I bought them all in the sterilite brand. They have solved my storage problems. They have made it easier to organ...

What I am reviewing is actually sold as a gardening item, but I strongly recommend this item as camping equipment. We use it with a 33 gallon garbage bag. What makes it so perfect for camping is the fact that it folds up practically flat for easy storage. We keep it in the storage compartment of our camping trailer. Ideally, it would be great to have one for garbage, and one for soda cans. They...

Yes, I know, I love Tupperware also but how many of us can afford their prices for kitchen containers when we can buy reusable ones at a fraction of the cost? I do have some Tupperware pieces which I bought some years ago but when I discovered these reusable containers, I stocked up my kitchen with them. I was initially drawn to them because of their price but I have grown to soley use these fo...

For any homemaker or crafter, Rubbermaid has to be our best friend.  I have used this particular brand of storage containers for well over 25 years.  There is not a size or color that I cannot find, the price is affordable and the durability is unchallenged in our household.  I use this to store all of my seasonal decorations, Green for Christmas, Orange/Black for Halloween, Red ...

I bought this container about a year ago. It’s made by Green Leaf, a brand that specializes in plastic container. I think the product quality of this brand is better than the other brands that produce similar products. The container I bought is model 7340, with 1.9L capacity and square shape. The dimension is 21 cm x 15 cm x 5.5 cm. It’s made of transparent thick plastic, and it has...

I bought this Zebra stainless steel water container for my daughter two (2) years ago. She practically spent 7 to 8 hours in school including her travel time back and forth. I preferred a water container for her that can hold the coldness of her water for several hours. Ordinary students' water containers or tumblers usually do not keep the water for long so I decided to check the home and ...

We bought this container before we got married. The brand is Lion Star, a famous brand for plastic container in our country. The model of this container S-301 and it can hold 3.8 L capacity. The color is orange, and it’s a round model. The diameter is approximately 25 cm, pretty large to store any kinds of food. The plastic material, however, doesn’t look that solid, I mean it&rsquo...

Although I breastfed the majority of the time, we invested in this container for the few times we needed formula while out and about.  It came in handy because I could have formula premeasured and could make a bottle whenever needed instead of worrying that it would go back before we could use it. As a bonus, this container can be used again and again as they get older.  We now use it...

Ziploc's new Twist and Lock Containers are unlike any of the others.  Their lids actually lock into place.   This is a great way to store food, especially on the go.  They are also dishwasher safe, which makes for an easy clean up. Ziploc Twist and Locks are great for packing lunches.  No more spilled, leaky lunches in the school bag or brief case.  You don...

I made a vow to try to save money and be more ecologically minded this year for my New Years Resolution.  One of the first things I did was get a bunch of plastic containers that I could freeze leftovers in and move straight to the microwave for cooking.  This helps me save money by allowing me to cook more at once (saves money to do things in bulk), keep leftovers longer (freezing th...

This is the unit I use to store my dog's food in. It has a 30 quart capacity. It can hold 25+ pounds of cat kibble, 30+ pounds of dog food and 40+ pounds of bird seed. It is a generous size.
