My family always seems to have an overabundance of frisbees (mostly free promotional giveaways) - and since you only need one or two for actually throwing around the back yard, I started repurposing them for other uses.

Tips and ideas for using frisbees, other than throwing them. Post your ideas.
Birdbath - punch through the Frisbee's edge at 3 points, insert wire plant hangers, hang from a tree and fill with water.

Pet dish - when you're out roughing it with your dog, a Frisbee works well as a food or water dish.

They could also be used for drip catchers under potted plants, or under a can of paint in case you're messy. A frisbee would also be a good coaster for a giant's drink!
Frisbees make great, inexpensive dishes for hiking and backpacking, especially the ones you can get for free as promo materials at a fair or festival.
Heres another frisbee idea. Spray with non stick spray, and fill w/cement or mosaic cement. Before it dries, lightly push in flat backed marbles or broken china, write words, names or sayings and you have a cheap and easy mosaic stepping stone for your garden.
I found these adorable little Frisbees which were in the Easter basket section of Walmart. They are so adorable and make great paint palettes. I was going to put one in an Easter basket, but changed my mind. They would also make great saucers for potted plants to sit in, as well.
