Plastic bottles

Plastic bottles are formed using a variety of techniques. The choice of material varies depending upon application. High Density Polyethylene: HDPE is the most widely used resin for plastic bottles. This material is economical, impact resistant, and provides a good moisture barrier. HDPE is compatible with a wide range of products including acids and caustics but is not compatible with solvents. It is supplied in FDA approved food grade. HDPE is naturally translucent and flexible. The addition of color will make HDPE opaque although not glossy. HDPE lends itself readily to silk screen decoration. While HDPE provides good protection at below freezing temperatures, it cannot be used with products filled at over 160°F (71.1°C) or products requiring a hermetic (vacuum) seal.

Ideas needed for the use of 2-liter bottles.

I use a lot of things that are in 2-little bottles and I am looking for ideas on what I can use them for instead of always throwing them away or to the recycle bin. Thanks in advance.
