How to repurpose tile scraps

I have a plastic crate full of scrap stone tiles from a backsplash project that I'm hesitant to throw out. Any ideas of how I can repurpose?

    You can make steppingstones with the proper concrete mix and a sealer for outside.

    How about using them for making a mosaic pattern for an outdoor table top or garden stepping stones? You could also make trivets for hot pads or designs on pots for plants

    Donate them to your local Habitat for Humanity ReStore :)

    @Carmen if you have an old piece of furniture - table or dresser etc. - you could build a shallow frame around it and resurface the top with the tile. I did this on an old dresser that I repurposed for the bathroom. It gave it a totally new and fresh look. Not too difficult to do and worth the minimal effort required.
