Anything will do, so long as it's not going to look shocking!

thanks

Check out Lakeland who always have good stuff (ask for a catalogue as easier to browse.

IKEA also for good cheap stylish storage.

Habitat have really nice ones. Cargo also does something similar.

I like Kilner (really for jam etc)

Also I use large recycled, eg the big jars with roasted red peppers in them, from places like Lidl

twoluvlykids, they'd be more along my lines if they're what I think they are . . . the ones with the really stiff clip type thing on top to keep them airtight?

yes that's kilner. mine are round, 2 sizes, but I think they are also available in squares, which is better/neater on a shelf
