Does anyone have ideas to use the empty measuring cups for liquid laundry soap and fabric softener? I keep saving them because occasionally I need another one when the one I'm using falls behind the washer! However, now I have several and I hate to throw them away but I don't want to become a 'collector'.

I use them for snowmen faces in the winter and they would make great pin cushion bases

Little kids can use them for water play.

If you were able to punch drainage holes in them you could use them to cultivate seedlings in.

My LQS uses them as scoops for the bargain button bin
