Photo or place-card holder: Wrap removable craft wire around the narrow groove and extend it into a small loop to hold a card.
Seasonal centerpiece: Arrange several on a wooden tray with pinecones and battery fairy lights for winter, or shells and driftwood for summer.
Jewelry display: Drape a bracelet or necklace around the narrow middle for an interesting shop display.
