    I've been making iced tea instead of purchasing it in a plastic cup this month and I just finished off this tin! Any ideas of how I can repurpose it? I'm thinking a mini-planter 😄

    straws are my weak point only because I always forget to bring my steel straws from home, but I've managed to skip the straw on my daily iced tea run for 7 days in a row! going for a full month plus, woo!
