I’m working from home full time during this “quarantine”and drinking multiple cups of coffee a day. K-cup pods are piling up fast! At first, I was tossing them into the trash.

Used coffee grounds are beneficial to the garden soil. I don’t garden so I dried the grounds, put them in labeled packets and mailed them out to gardening friends along with some handmade glass magnets.
The coffee stained paper liners can be used for calligraphy.
The empty, plastic K-cup can hold water-thinned acrylic paints and dripped over canvas for fluid art.
Here’s some photos of the coffee grounds drying…
