Trees, houses decorated in multicolored lights and even a fresh sheet of white snow on the ground can’t take the place of those sweet melodic sounds. Carols are iconic, classic songs known throughout the world. But just as modern music is being remixed and remade, it only seems fitting to give renowned carols a container spin. These songs may not have hit the radio waves just yet, but luckily you get an exclusive sneak peek. Feast your eyes on a countdown of the most notable Christmas tunes from the container industry. "Jingle Bottles" “Jingle Bottles” is an industry favorite spin on the Christmas classic, “Jingle Bells”. Picture it, what do you get when you throw a couple bells into a bottle style container and shake it up? Jingle bottles. This Christmas fad is catching on quick, so pick up a cylinder, boston round or cosmo style container to ensure that you will have jingle bottles, the newest must-have item, at your holiday shindig. Can you imagine the awkward alternative situation? Put Just Dance: Christmas Style away, that is so five minutes ago. "Deck the Jars" Forget holly and mistletoe this year. Everyone (well, maybe not everyone, probably just the hipsters) knows the hot decoration fad this season is jars. I know its Christmas, but no one really cares that this is the first holiday since Extreme Makeover: Home Edition remodeled your house. The key to being the cool people on the block is to follow exactly what the song suggests, well, kind of. Don’t exactly deck (as in “punch”) the jars; that might end in injury. Just deck (as in “decorate”) your home with jar containers. Stock up and bedazzle your digs like never before! "Silver Pails" Silver pails, silver pails, it’s winter time in the city… c’mon everyone, join in! Go big or go home, right? Forget the bells when you could have pails! Make Christmas music this year practical. Multitask with a pail container and collect donations for the needy instead of walking around aimlessly ring-a-linging a bell. "Rusty the Snow Tin" First and foremost, it’s important for you to know that Rusty is short of Russell. Because Rusty is a CPS tin and our tins don’t rust! Different from the traditional lyrics, it wasn’t a magic silk hat that gave the tin container life; it was a perfect friction-fit lid that animated Rusty. Don’t worry about dropping a container full of goodies to each neighbor on the street, Rusty and the neighborhood children he hangs with are happy to deliver holiday treats. Thumpity-thump-thump, thumpity-thump-thump look at Rusty go! "Rocking around the Treatment Pump" People tend to gather around certain items when a group gets together to visit. At the office it’s the water cooler. It’s the oldest and most striking artifact at a museum. This year, a pine tree-sized treatment pump will bring all the townsfolk to your Christmas party. Just imagine rockin’ around that Christmas tree! No Christmas is complete without the sounds of the season. The materials are at your fingertips, what’s stopping you from forming your own container band? Build the soundtrack of your holiday season with jingle bottles, decked out jars, silver pails, non-rusty snow tins and rockin’ treatment pumps! Happy Holidays from CPS!
