SeekingSimplicity Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I saw an idea on pinterest where someone glued plastic cups into a muffin tin ot organize pencils and crayons and stuff. So I tried it this afternoon and fixed up all our school supplies nice and neat. 3 hours later all the cups have been broken off. :glare: Back to the drawing board Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LibraryLover Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 We use canning jars for that. You can see everything in them *and* they look pretty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcnlvr Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Yeah, I can relate. I would not have even attempted the cup thing. My termites....er, sons would have them destroyed in no time. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeekingSimplicity Posted August 11, 2011 Author Share Posted August 11, 2011 What kind of glue did you use? I used hot glue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm... that's an idea. have you had any of them break, or do they hold up pretty well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarcyB Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 yeah - hot glue and metal don't always like each other, and can come a part pretty easily. Gorilla glue might work well, too. I have used cans before..and glued them together so they were a little group. Moveable while not seperatable (that's so not a word). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
