You can donate them to a shelter. Or you can use them as markers in your garden in the spring. Or you could do this project https://creativeladyofthehouse.wordpress.com/2013/02/18/faux-crystal-chandelier/

I use those plastic knives to stir paint or stain in my quart size or smaller containers!

I save them for small crafts, mixing paints, spreading glue, etc.
I use to mark plants. You can sharpie what they are.
If you bake, they are the best for cutting into warm baked goods.
i use them to mix small cans of paint. forks work best.
Surround Mirror Cliock etc. Make Plant Labels, Make Chandelier....

They work great for craft projects. Donate them to a daycare or school.
