Hide a key

A pill bottle is the perfect shape and size for hiding a spare key. To help it blend a little more, glue a rock on top of the bottle. Bury the bottle in a hidden spot with the rock showing to help you find the bottle when you need to retrieve it.

Waterproof money holder

This is a great idea for keeping small items dry. Add nylon cord to the top of the lid by drilling a small hole, then insert the nylon cord, tie a knot and add some E-6000 glue to seal the top and hold the cord in place.

Keep it fresh with your favorite perfume

To avoid traveling with a large container of perfume, add a small amount to a cotton ball or cotton swab and place in a pill bottle. The cotton balls should stay moist all day. Just swipe a little on your skin for a midday freshen up!
