How can I turn a crappy old electric guitar into something useful and neat looking?

My ex left this guitar at my house, we don’t talk anymore, and he’s made no attempts to get it back.
Rather than throw it out, I would like to turn it into something useful. I play the acoustic and prefer it, plus I have no amp, so it’s useless to me as a guitar.
I was thinking along the lines of stripping it of strings and ugly (stickers and nonsense), and making it into a wall-hanging coat rack… seems like a good idea.
Any thoughts?

Cover it in seaquins!
Perhaps add a clock to it?

Strip it and write all your favourite quotes or lyrics on it
