Pill bottles may seem like a small item to keep around the house, but they can actually be incredibly useful in a variety of ways. Instead of tossing them out, consider repurposing them with these 12 creative ideas.

One of the simplest ways to reuse a pill bottle is as a jewelry holder. The small size and secure lid make it perfect for storing small earrings, rings, or other accessories. You can also use pill bottles in the shower to hold small amounts of shampoo, conditioner, or body wash for travel or gym trips.

For those who enjoy sewing, a pill bottle can be transformed into a portable sewing kit by storing needles, thread, and small scissors inside. Similarly, you can use a pill bottle to hide a spare key outside your home or create a survival kit with essential items like matches, safety pins, and bandages.

If you’re a crafter, consider using a pill bottle as a center pull for your yarn to keep it from getting tangled. You can also repurpose pill bottles as makeup holders, purse trash cans, or containers for earbuds to keep them from getting tangled in your bag.

For a more sentimental touch, consider creating a “love Rx” by filling a pill bottle with small notes, trinkets, or tokens of affection for a loved one. Alternatively, you can repurpose a pill bottle as a matchbox or coin holder for easy access to these small items.

With so many creative ways to reuse pill bottles, there’s no need to let them pile up or end up in the trash. Give these ideas a try and see how these small containers can make a big impact on your organization and daily life. Let us know which idea is your favorite!
