I had a friend who used them as garden decorations with ivy climbing up and around them.

Maybe they could be used for bases of a pergola.

Love the plant stands. I was thinking candle holders or table base.

I saw an article where they repurposed fence posts by drilling a hole in the top and stuck in a cheap solar light. Maybe you could do that with the porch posts?
