Ingredients

Directions

1. Do you have some wide canister jars say 3 or 5 inches wide? Do you still spill oatmeal, flour or sugar, or macaroni when you fill them?
2. Try this: save one of those 1 gal. cranberry jugs.
3. Cut off the bottom starting just above the 6 square windowy looking things - that's right, you know what I mean.
4. You can use a sharp knife but follow up with scissors to create a smooth rim on both projects.
5. Ok, the top is your funnel.
6. And the bottom (well, it's great for those 6 inch flowerpots to sit in, as the middle holds it up and it will drain off the excess water).
7. It also works for outdoor picnic goodie bowls in the summer so you don't break or lose anything spendy. Who cares if the dog runs off with it.
