Hi Sandra, I've seen them hung up and used for curtains. Another sweet idea is to actually frame them and use them for wall art.

Wrap around a wreath frame and add a few flowers.
Make Cushions or a Throw, Make a Patchwork quilt once you have backed them with iron on stiffener. Make Hair bands, Sell them on eBay, Give them to Charity shop etc.
I really liked the wreath idea. Think I will try that for fall. Thank you! Making something to sell on eBay is a good idea too.
Here are some ideas, I love the thought of turning some of them into pillows!

duvet cover?
You could use them to make bows and add them to the wreaths. If you get floral wire and use it support the scarves they could be outstanding.
Your wreath idea sounds really good especially at this time of year.And using the floral wire is perfect! Otherwise they look kind of floppy as these are mostly silk. Thank you!
You could frame them
