Coffee Can and Baby Food Jar Storage

Karen from Sew Many Ways has a pretty clever way of storing her spray paint:


She actually has a pretty clever way of carrying it around too:


I love the first one because you can nail that board over your work area horizontally too, and your spray paint would always be at your fingertips.  It reminds me of my Grandpa's shop.  He had baby food jars above his work area that held screws and nails.  He screwed the lids to the shelf above him like in this picture from Re Nest:


And while I was looking for a picture to describe the baby food jars storage, I found this from Crafty Nest:


Which really doesn't have anything to do with the coffee can storage, but I love how cute the little baby food jars look with their painted blue lids.  And you could use your spray paint for that!

After seeing this...I asked all my friends with babies for baby food jars! If I would have seen this about 4 years ago, I would have had plenty lol. I'm so excited to paint the lids and line up buttons and other random craft items.
PS...I turned one of those square plastic milk crates on it's side, and store my spray paint in it. I can see all the colors at a glance.
