Picnic-Kitting Caddy Hacks with Plastic Jugs and Cut-off Bottles

With gettogethers indoors or in yards or other outdoor venues, use plastic milk and water jugs to create caddy containers. The scope is narrow, pretty much light organizing of plasticware and containers to hold them. Additional items in the video include napkins and some condiments.

Use cut-off bottles for holding smaller bunches of same-type plasticware, which can fit into gallon jugs. BTW, milk/water jug handles are handy for tethering other jugs together using a shoestring and a cord lock. View usages in the video.

In various reuse/repurpose blog topics, I've shown jugs and bottles in other household uses. You might be surprised at how many second lives the jugs and bottles can have. Amusingly, my own use of many jugs and cut-off bottles include containing refrigerated produce, produce in pantry, draining the most of shampoos and lotions, and props for my slide shows.
