If you have kids around, they make good "tablecloths" for craft projects.
Ghost costumes! - a classic that's never out of style and always fun.
If you don't have any kids or pets in your household, then donate them to a local elementary school to give to children for their Halloween costumes, or to a high school that has a drama department. They will be put to good use by the set-and-stage crew. More often than not there is little or no money in the budget for these kinds of resources.
Donate them to an animal shelter...they use them to line the cages.....shelters also need blankets and towels.
I use mine to cover susceptible plants such as my veggies so that they last a little longer. If the sheets are cotton, you can cut them into rags to use for cleaning. Giving them to shelters is also a good idea.
Throw pillows, stitch 2 together with thin batting in between n use little pieces of yarn all over to hold batting in place
Hmm, depends on condition and do you sew? I have used the fabric to make a replacement blanket binding or turn them into extra pillow cases or use to make the inside pillow that gets another decor cover. In the yard they cover tender plants and vegetables overnite if freeze or frost expected or an easy way to avoid ice and snow on shrubs...just lift off the shrub and shake off snow! I use them to haul fallen leaves. Weaker ones I tear into strips to tie up my tomatoes and other leaning plants. Most of my uses are practical but others use them for curtains, duvet covers, shower curtain. Dust cover...draped or cut to make a custom cover for sewing machine or other appliance. Nice stripes or floral could become a table runner. Stripes can be cut and sewn together in different directions for interesting graphic design as runner, pillow, tapestry. Tee pee or play tent?
