I save them in a large plastic jar that pretzels come in and donate them to my quild. At our quilt shows we have a huge jar filled with empty thread spools of all sizes and colors and people guess at the number of spools in the jar. The winner gets a very nice prize.
Also, a few times I've sent them to teachers or scout leaders for projects.

I remembered over night a craft project I saw as a little girl. Take the large cones and glue onto a base in a circle for a wreath. They also used wooden clothes pins on the outside ring to hold the two neighbors together, it looked like the circle of cones then these rays coming off them that the clothes pins create, if you can picture this. Will not go into how many decades ago that was.
