Old bed slats

I have a collection of old wooden bed slats that I'm loathe to throw away, but struggling to work out what I could do with them.
I've looked at YouTube/Pinterest but they seem to think that all bed slats are straight, whereas mine are slightly curved.
I have a pyrography set so going to use some of them to practise on, but there'll be lots left.
Anyone have any ideas?

Could you glue two together and then clamp to straighten them out?Offer them out to people on face book or what ever to replace broken ones?Have one drill holes in and then dangle strings with things on through the holes as wind chimes?Hammer stakes in the ground and then use these to make mini raised beds?
