Need some garden ideas for this material

Okay I have some very old chandelier material I want to use in my garden.
Would like some ideas on how to clean it and what you would do with it.
Full chains are about 24" in length. Largest octohedrons are a bit bigger than a quarter, smallest are dime size. They are connected with a brass link and all pieces have a hole drilled through top and bottom.
They are glass unfortunately not leaded. I have 50' to 60' to play with. I was thinking of incorporating some of them into a rain chain or two.

Hang them from a watering can and attach to a shepards hook. It looks amazing with sunlight shining .

They would look beautiful wrapped around some fairy lights and swagged around the porch or gazebo.

Just drape them through a shrub that is seen from in doors and is in a sunny position so the sun will reflect off the beads.
