I've got this crazy idea where I want to create something out of them. I don't know what yet, but I imagine it will be really awesome when I figure it out.
About reusing them, I've heard that's unsafe because the chemicals from the plastic seeps into your water. This could just be a myth, but I thought I'd inform you just in case.

hmm, i collect a few specifics (elephants, owls, and
gingerbread things) but i'm very picky, so unless its
christmas, you won't see anything taking over an
entire room. mostly, they're gifts or something i just
couldn't live without and they mean a lot more to me
that way...

however! he insists that i'm obsessed with buying
household things and have a growing collection.
how can i NOT buy the adorable oven mits (on sale)
that match my kitchen? how can i pass up the
neat thingy that the paper towel roll sits on and
conveniently spins? come ON
