Shoutout to those little plastic plant pots for organizing small hardware

Honestly, I was digging through a pile of loose screws and washers last weekend and got so annoyed I almost gave up. Then I remembered I had a bunch of those tiny 4-inch plastic plant pots from Dollar Tree sitting in my shed. I grabbed three of them, labeled them with a sharpie for screws, nuts, and bolts, and now my workbench is actually clean. Found out from a YouTube video that those pots have drainage holes that work perfect for sifting out dust too. Cost me like $1.25 total instead of dropping $20 on a plastic organizer. Anyone else repurpose dollar store garden stuff for workshop messes?

So now my workbench smells like wet soil and metal shavings.
