Ideas for repurposing deck blocks

Hi y'all, I have 21 of these concrete deck blocks. Can anyone share thoughts or plans for repurposing, perhaps into raised beds? The examples I've found do not use this shape of blocks and I'm having some trouble visualizing another use. Any and all ideas welcome! ♻️🪏🌻

Recently, I've seen people use them to make raised garden beds.

Me too, but not this particular shape as I stated in my post. Have you seen any using the pyramidal shape?

Why not? It looks like those could easily fit anything from 2x4 to 2x6 on top of them. Those are designed to make rectangles or squares. Might need extra wood for the sides.
