What size are these - diameter, height? My friend had large turquoise sewer types. He dug them into a slope, added soil and planted flowers.

PVC pipes are so useful - I have put together a Board from Hometalk members which may have something which appeals to you. Here is the link: http://www.hometalk.com/b/4431917/pvc-make-overs

The size of the pipes would be helpful... If the are small in diameter, more like railing size, use them to make a frame, add some boards and make shelving unit. My favorite beer pub has used them to make the bases of their tables. Certainly, that idea could be applied to making a bedroom desk or nightstand.

  @Mabeline Do you know how the pipes were mounted to the underside of the table? It is a brilliant idea - I guess one could cut a hole out of a piece of wood using a hole drill, and then glue the pipe into it, and screw the wood onto the underside of the table - but if you could let me know how the pub did it, I would be very grateful.

  I believe they used metal brackets. They were "U" shaped to go over the pipe with the ends of the brackets being flat with holes for securing them with screws to the table tops. They looked like something found at a hardware store becuSe they did not look like anything "custom" made.

Candle holders. Get creative and make ones that the candle will be seen from. In other words make cut out near the top of the pvc. Great for throwing designs on your walls,

They can be painted. Depending on the size, they can be used for curtain rods, candlesticks and more.
