1. Fragrance for drawer or linen closet (Add small amount of essential oil.)

2. Display for your smashed tourist pennies

3. Office supply storage


4. Holder for tie clips or those things in collar points

5. Loose coin collector

6. Personal care accessory keeper

7. Keeper for lapel pins or rings

8. Spice-it-up accent for your windowsill (With shells or whatever)

9. Accent piece by photo frame (Tell a story.)

10. Condiment cup for dried spices like cilantro* (For measuring when cooking.)

11. Scoop for cat or bird food*

12. Coffee scoop* (Don’t store inside coffee canister in case it makes coffee smell like oranges. And of course, it has to be clean — not used to store nail clippers.)

13. Bird food dish. (Only if in covered area that won’t get wet.)

14. Do not disturb sign. (Create hole with lacing needle and tie with string.)

15. Place on top of other orange half and use as trinket box. (Sorry the other half declined being photographed for this use.)

16. Button keeper

*The problem with using it as a food scoop (like for coffee) is that you can’t wash this. It will become soft again. Of course, you could re-bake. Or repurpose.

Can you think of other uses? Is this something you would try?
