    You can fill them with something fun and make them into table lamps. You could also string them bye wire and have hanging lights or a chandelier using the battery operated tea lights flames available at craft stores or online.

    My daughter glued flat gems onto the outside and put fairy lights in them to make a lovely light for your porch or table. You can make patterns with the gems or just let them be random.

    If the vases ate clear you could get creative and make sand terrariums. They always look so nice. You could give them as holiday gifts. You can start now and have plenty of time to work on them.

    Put rocks or colored sand and candles in them. Use them to hold collections , like for marbles , sea glass, buttons , wine corks ... I have a memory jar, every time I go on walks or hikes with my husband , I pick up a unusual stone , shell, tiny piece of driftwood...whatever and place it in the jar.

    love all these ideas! saw a neat idea just last weekend at Mr. Ed's Elephant Museum & Candy Emporium in Pennsylvania on Rt. 30! in his pond garden he had stuck long metal poles in the ground around the pond and put colored bottles upside down over the poles.
