I've used something similar to these for small plants: Amazon.com

I usually drill the holes but I have also used a soldering iron which you can get for 10 bucks on Amazon.

If you ever seek novelty pots I recommend looking for "pencil cups" or other classroom, organization cups, bins, etc. They sell all sort of stuff made to store toys, legos, crayons that are completely suitable for orchids of all sizes. I use these for Cattleyas: https://a.co/d/2bjoZSa

I don't have any S/H plants in the small acrylic squared cups right now, but I'm attaching a current photo of one in the patterned cup, don't ask me how I plan to repot it

Would these do?

4 Qt. Plastic Food Container (Translucent)

They're 7 inch squares. Don't fit my aesthetic preference, but probably functional. Plant pots are typically PP or HDPE anyways. And they're only 4 bucks and change.

A shame, it's a pretty pot, but I suspect that if you really want to repot it, a hammer would be involved. On the other hand, I love the look... that plant is happy, doing what comes naturally.

I use a glue gun (without loading a glue stick) and the tapered tip lets me easily make small to large holes. I used to drill but melting is so much easier and reliable.
