Here's a craft for you. I take those and make 3-7 inch tall foot stools. 3 inch if a single 1x6, 7 inch if using something more like a 2x8. Just cut one to even halfs (doesnt have to be exactly 6 inches) and those are the legs. Nail to top 12 inch or so piece. Cut another down so it fits between the legs and nail it down well. Sand, then paint in bright colors with some sort of stenciled paint design. Use with guests then gift them to them at the end of the party ;-)
Oh, if you want to make a 7 inch tall or so one out of 1x6, get some cute hinges that lay flat and use those to secure the 2 leg pieces and then flip it over and use cheaper pre-holed metal brackets on the bottom to hold the 2 top pieces. Now you have a 7 inch or so tall stable 12 inch wide footstool.
Hehe folks think they are so neat, never knowing they are gonna be gifted with one at the end of the party.
