First, my friend, peel off those labels!
I've been using mine to hold earring backs, some of my bead stuff (the "real" bead containers are muy expensivo).
If you can drill a small hole in the middle of both bottom of the bottle and the lid, you could use fish line and string yourself a windchime!
You could use them to start seeds for the flower or vegetable garden (again, need hole from drainage).
On the really silly side, you could put them on their sides, building them up by row, like a pyramid, add some little bits of animal fur, and they could be little apartments for KOTF's subjects!

Glue them together to the size of your window, you may have to cut a few to make it fit snugly into the window sill. Take it out so that you can paint a picture on them. You could even put colored glass or marbles inside them.
You could use them as a bobber if you like to go fishing? Put loose screws, nuts and bolts in them.??

Is it odd of me to ask.....why do you save them?....don't you just throw empty bottles in the recylce bin (or garbage) when you're finished?

You can make them into a stained glass window, you'd have to have the right kind of paint and make them the exact size of your windows, but they'd fit right onto your window sill.

I'm a hoarder too...because "someday" these will come in handy. Paint and put one near every sink to put your rings in....I liked the bead holder and seedling thing alot....I need to consult my resident artist the aardvark named Veto...I will return to this question. {my surgery went well but I now need to walk the halls}.

I make plastic items…quite a lot of things in fact. I use a dramel hand power tool with a variable speed controller to cut and shape plastic into various parts. The colored plastic medical bottles I have cut into jewelry elements for earrings and bracelets. I usually end up with things that no one would recognise as originating from such a humble source. Very hot water will make the pill bottles melt down to allow you to press the hot plastic goo between spoons for an interesting shape. I made fishing lures that way when I was a kid. Have fun with it there are lots of things that you can do with plastic.
