I recycle the plastic ones, kept a few in the Grand kids 'Art' box. Let the cat have one or two.... the wood ones go into a jar. The large cones make good funnels for getting that last bit of ketchup , syrup, liquid soap, whatever fits from old bottle to new bottle. cones work for holding thin bouquet together in vase.. Handles for bundles of sticks, wood... ( secure bundle, insert twine, thru cone, secure to other side of bundle, carry)
