35+ Uses for Used Plastic Milk Jugs

by on Sep 6, 2007

There are more plastic milk jugs.

Marion Owen has amassed a list of clever uses for used plastic milk jugs in an effort to keep them out of landfills. Here are some of her suggestions:

  • Bird Feeders
  • Scoops (½ gallon jugs work particularly well for these)
  • Swimming Floaters
  • Weights
  • Potted Plant Bases
  • Luminaries
  • Organizers
  • Funnels
  • Poor Man’s Blenders
  • Toilet Brush Holders
  • Jack-o-Lanterns
  • Piggy Banks

For detailed instructions on making these and other projects, check out this page.
