Take the metal collar and sprayer off with small jewelry making pliers then line them up with tiny flowers or leaves. They make unique mobiles with driftwood, shells, and beads. I also work with colored wire and beads and make little baubles to hang or sit on shelves or hooks or glass knobs.
Check on line for the value of these bottles. Some of the old Chanel No. 5 perfume bottles are advertised for sale for upwards of $50!!
Look for markings on these. If you are fond of these items and just want to enjoy them, look to making a shadow box with small shelves and placing these inside. You can anchor them with double face tape which can be removed later. Just do not place the tape on any printed or painted surfaces.
You can group them together for small flower vases. If they have printed writing on them, I suppose you could cover that up some way.
