Shiny Happy

I don't know what I was thinking. We go to the thrift shop about once a week, and for two weeks in a row, I saw this stack of shiny, colorful cups, all lashed together with tape and hanging in the mug section. Maybe that's it--they were in the mug section, and I definitely don't need any mugs. I passed them by. But by the third time I saw them, they'd transformed themselves. Now I wasn't seeing mugs, I was seeing scoops for our flour and sugar canisters or cups to hold paperclips or sugar bowls or pincushion bottoms.


They came home with me. What would you do with these happy, happy cups?

They are lovely shiny happy cups - especially the handles - and you've come up with some wonderful ideas to use them.

I would eat ice cream out of them, of course I'll eat ice cream out of practically anything. :)

What happy cups! Wouldn't it be wonderful if they held EXACTLY one cup? Then you could even measure with your scoops.
