This is a little set I place together that has the Stanley Cup therein and the Ozark path mug. I like it matches the oven for canisters inside i am jumping the …
Chief Michael Schulson discusses the 8 necessary spices for your kitchen area, along with an unique holiday diced prawn dish.
That’s a good idea thanks
How could you throw all the glitter out? D:
How the heck did you get the tops off of those shakers without breaking
them? I got them but they won’t pop off without cracking the plastic. I
love the idea….thanks for all the tips!
I break off those green handles and put on split ring key rings so you can
grab or use a stick to lift them off. Not my idea, got it off a Youtube
video.
Great idea on the spices. Better then tic tac containers. When ever I go to
a fast food place and walkin, I take a few of the salts, pepper, and sugar
packets.
Have you tried the esbit type solid fuel wafers, It will keep your pack
weight down? Then, you could supplement your pack with either more food
and/or better, more comfortable sleeping gear. Also, sometimes the noise
from the stove drowns out the beautiful sounds of nightfall. I liked your
spice kit. Some places sell a medicine/vitamin pouch that you can
substitute with spices. That is my rig and it works well. The Stanley pot
is good, but sometimes I’ve used a nesting kit that has 3 pans, 2 lids and
a small cup(about the same weight as the Stanley). I put small tongs,
cheese grater with them. Okay, so I am a chef out in the wild. If the Mrs
goes, she’ll carry the Stanley with the 2 cups. Good vid– keep
experimenting. Jb.
The containers is the key. Good job!
WARNING! Regarding the re-purposed glitter spice containers:
It’s best to *AVOID the Crafter’s Square® brand* when you’re roaming the
aisles of the local Dollar Store looking for components for this kit. The
plastic containers themselves are fine, but the lids are *unbelievably*
shoddy. Contrary to what some folks have said in the comments about the
tops being impossible to remove, I’ve found that:
1.) The lids are practically impossible to open, as the prongs that plug
the holes in the lid are seated too tightly to facilitate easy opening.
This would be a mixed blessing; as such an arrangement would help prevent
the tops from popping open and spilling spices all over. However …
2.) The entire lid assembly just barely stays on the containers anyway,
which means that when you try to open them, the entire lid assembly comes
loose before you’ll ever succeed in getting the actual lid open to reveal
the shaker holes. These things look like they’d pop off with little more
than a stern glance.
These Crafter Square® glitter sets are indeed running five for a dollar at
the local Dollar General and (assuming that the shoddy quality is
consistent) simply not worth the buck you’ll throw away. The items showing
in this clip look identical to the ones I bought today and deemed unusable.
I think the ideas in this clip are worthy, which is why I threw down a buck
for the glitter kit. However, I’d just recommend spending a bit more to
get something usable. You get what you pay for, and based on my
experience, the *Crafter’s Square® brand is useless*.
FYI. Thanks.
lol I feel kinda embarrased to go buy women nailglitter :-)
Awesome container tip. Look like Ill be looking a lil fruity tomorrow
buying glitter. Thanks!
love the idea with the glitter bottles for holding spice… I usually use
the old plastic camera film cannisters. but find they may hold more spice,
but you have to pour into the palm so as not to waste to much. Enjoyed this
vid..Wondering if your gonna be showing some of your outdoor meals you make
using this kit ?? Cheers ;-)) have a great day
If you don’t really want to many spices use clear straws and just fold it
over about half inch at the end use plier to hold it shut and use a lighter
to seal it and fill up and repeat on the other end be sure to leave about
and inch empty tho
pretty nice kit
That is a nice cheap way to get lightweight containers that take up almost
no space. They look better than the fancy plastic jars from REI. Nice job,
John.
Always looking for small containers. Thanks for another great source for
the use indicated. Have several (empty) of those first aid boxes. Been
wondering what to do with them. That’s a good use hadn’t considered. Thanks!
