My baby girl is growing so fast…she started eating cheerios today! And she loves them!
And that reminded me of a clever Cheerio-storage method I’ve seen at the church nursery.
The lid of the creamer bottle is the PERFECT size for dispensing cheerios a few at a time. No need to worry about little hands spilling an entire container of cheerios onto the floor…or dirty little fingers digging into an entire bag of them…or little feet stepping on the baggie and crushing them all!
This is a Coffee-mate creamer bottle, but I think any brand would probably work.
“Upcycling” a creamer bottle is a great way to store any small snack for on-the-go snacking: small pretzel rods, goldfish crackers, etc.
This will be a staple in my diaper bag from now on!
Do you have any other uses for upcycled creamer bottles?

What a great idea! I imagine manipulating the lid and tipping the container are both great helps in learning motor skills. Clever!

I can’t believe our little ones are ready for cheerios already! I’m so going to try your creamer idea. Now… to track down someone who drinks it, lol!
Now this is a fantastic idea! I don’t drink coffee, but I’m tempted to get some creamer just so I can reuse the container. I’m going to have to look through our containers to see if there’s an alternative I can use.

What a clever idea! Using a creamer bottle lid for Cheerios is genius. I’ll definitely try this with other snacks. Thanks for sharing!
Just found your channel today. Love your excitement about your projects. I am the same way, my sister says you are such a nerd lol. I like that your projects look great but are simple to do.
Love these upcycled creamer bottle ideas, so creative and eco-friendly!
I discovered your channel today. I appreciate your enthusiasm for your endeavors. I share the same sentiment; my sister refers to you as quite the nerd, amusingly. I appreciate that your projects are visually appealing yet straightforward to execute.
Such a clever way to give empty creamer bottles a second life! I love the practical DIY ideas here—it’s a good reminder that everyday items can become useful again with a little creativity. That same “what can I make from this?” mindset made me enjoy Fruit Merge too, since combining simple fruits into bigger ones is oddly satisfying. If you like quick puzzles that give your brain something fun to work on, give it a try.
