Default Looking for cute container ideas for holding kitchen utensils

We are in the process of redoing our kitchen and instead of the usual rack on the wall for holding all your utensils, I just wondered if anyone had some cute ideas for containers on the counters. I have a few but you never know what someone else might come up with!

I've used some old Tin Canisters. You can find all sizes and shapes plus different colors. Just look in some of the Flea Markets or yard sales for good deals.

There are some clear jars you can find at any dollar store that would be beautiful to hold utensils. You could also use a mason jar or something similar to hold them. You may have to add weight to the bottom of the jars though, to hold them upright.

How about those tall clear vases they use for roses and other tall flowers? You could also use a stoneware crock if you have one. I had one given to me for a birthday present one year and I use it to hold mine.

Right now I have a plastic bottle cut in half with utensils in it. I think I am going to switch it out, so keep these ideas coming. I want something different, interesting but frugal.

I have never seen any for utensils but I have for all types of foods. We have ones that are tupperware with four snap lids on the top, so you push down each 4 sides until it locks.
