What to do with old phone(s)???

[hobo finds]

I purchased a bunch of network switches back in December. At the same auction was a lot of Nortel phones and the backbone for them. For the price I couldn't pass it up. Have since then parted out or scrapped the phone servers. However, I still have almost 2 gaylord boxes of phones. Any idea what to do with them? Breaking them down results in a small board, some screws, all the keys, and the rest is rigid plastic. I've thought about selling the keys online for crafts. But not really much money in it for the effort it takes. Looked at selling the lot on ebay but shipping would eat me alive for what they would bring. What is everyone's thoughts?

Thanks
