    Add four legs and a cushion top on plywood and you have a foot stool/ ottoman. If you have more than one you can use 2 of them as bases for a shelf or low table. Two stacked up make a good bedside or end table (with a wood or glass top added).

    I would turn upside down and insert a light and then hang from ceiling as a ceiling light. This is exactly what I have been looking for in my kitchen. Where did you find these?

    I use mine as plant stands on the wood deck and under trees. The water bottle is taller, with a tray on top, makes a perfect coffee table in small space.

    I have a GREAT idea! Find a cardboard box they will both fit in, bring the flaps over and seal with packing tape. Now, here's the best part: use stencils, a bedazzler, decoupage, calligraphy, oil paint or your choice of media and affix my address and send them to ME! ;)
