By DIY Maven

Marion Owen has amassed a list of clever uses for used plastic milk jugs in an effort to keep them out of landfills. Here are some of her suggestions:

  • Bird Feeders
  • Scoops (½ gallon jugs work particularly well for these)
  • Swimming Floaters
  • Weights
  • Potted Plant Bases
  • Luminaries
  • Organizers
  • Funnels
  • Poor Man’s Blenders
  • Toilet Brush Holders
  • Jack-o-Lanterns
  • Piggy Banks

For detailed instructions on making these and other projects, check out this page.

As practical as it would be to reuse them for those things, they are just not aesthetically pleasing. lol
