I've put them in plate holders on the wall as displays, used them on the table for someone to place their teabags and spoons in order to keep their saucers "clean" or with mugs that didn't have saucers, put them in the bathrooms with little decorative soaps, placed them on our registration table at the B&B with business cards in them...I've used them just about everywhere! Your post has made me want to dig a few of my prettiest out of the china cabinets and take a few photos.
