Any suggestions about what to do with 500 Catholic/christian pendants?
A few years ago I bought over 500 crucifix pendants and pendants of Catholic saints for a subversive art project. I never completed the project and have since become unsatisfied with my original idea. I spent about $700 on them and now I don't know what to do with them. Any ideas besides destroying/trashing them? I'd consider just melting them down as they are all metal but they are different kinds, and I'm not a metalsmith anyway. Suggestions/ideas?

Not a bad idea, if I hung them all upside down 
thanks for the suggestion
No! Not windchimes. Nothing worse than clanging metal except maybe ATVs.
Sell them on Ebay, list them on Craigslist, etc.

I know I spent money on them but I don't want to put them back into circulation at least to christians who will use them for their intended use lol
@ClaytonE83 It's all a lie anyway, so who cares? Would you care if you sold Harry Potter items? You are giving reverence to something imaginary.
@birdingnut it's not a huge deal to me but no, billions of people don't believe Harry Potter is real and try to change legislation for the worse, based on him.
@birdingnut you might want to look up "reverance", I feel the opposite about the church...
@ClaytonE83 Then why are you spooky about selling the medallions, if you think Christians using them doesn't matter? If it's all imaginary it shouldn't matter if they use them for silly religious reasons or not.
@birdingnut I just don't want to put them back out there really. If I said it didn't matter then I wouldn't care at all. I'd rather melt them down, I see enough bullshit crosses on people and rearview mirrors to be bothered. I know I could be considered hypocritical for buying them but that's in the past. I'm not spooked by them.
You could probably make clear glass or silicone sex toys with the medallions imbedded in them. ?

Not a bad idea, very lowbrow 
I think they would rip through silicone, might have to use a casting resin as I don't work with making glass. Would work with someone to do this if I knew anyone with experience who might like the idea... Thanks for the suggestion
Melt them down and make a nice door stop out of them.

I like this idea, the main part of this art project would be a video showing the process for people to watch lol thanks for the suggestion
Maybe you can sell them on ebay one at a time and make a profit.

Maybe keep them just in case you think of a new art project.
Another thought, you could tie little atheistic quotes or messages to them and leave them in obscure places in your town.
