Bury them spout down as lawn or garden edging. They each usually end up with a plant growing inside them (without you trying) which actually looks rather beautiful.

@cooke how do these gold up with the strimmer?  
by (2.1k points)
I'm sure a metal blade strimmer would destroy them, but my parents have done this in bits of their garden and so far as I know a plastic string type strimmer has been no problem at-all.

Liking the bottle wall idea, wonder if possible to make a bottle bench using the same frame work base  
by (230 points)
@boesch I imagine it is. Bottle walls seem to often be exterior walls to let in light, which means they are load bearing. If they can help support a roof I'm sure a bench would work
