    It's to hold sugar but I like your idea. I love seeing things used for different reasons then they are meant to be used.

    Hi Kathi!

    I think it used for nuts. I know that sounds crazy, but just yesterday I saw a cute ceramic version of this at Nell Hill's. As I was checking out the price, the tag said it was a nut server. I personally would go with M&M's!
