K-cups are great in many ways. They offer great tasting coffee and they are super convenient to use. Pop it in, brew a cup, and boom! You’ve got yourself an easy morning routine. However, they can start to feel like a burden when you watch them pile up.

Luckily, there are so many ways to reuse them. You just have to get savvy with it and then the world is your oyster! So instead of heading right for the trash after using them, get creative with these 12 brilliant ways to reuse them.

1. Make more coffee

That’s right, you can actually get more than one cup of coffee out of your K-cup! Who would’ve thought? Just fill up the cup with new coffee and put on a new cap. Find caps here.

2. Organize

It’s such a great idea to use K-cups to organize your things. Clean out the insides, rip off the tops, and start filling them with whatever you want! Paper clips, bobby pins, buttons, you name it.

3. Sandbox playtime

Empty, cleaned out K-cups would actually make a great tool for your children to play with in the sandbox! Just make sure that you’re cleaning them up after — especially if you’re on a beach.

4. Plant stuff

Did you know that you can fill your K-cups with soil and use them as seed starters? Why not make some green magic!

5. DIY party lights

Slit little holes in them to slide strings of lights through and it actually creates a really cool effect. It looks like charming DIY light bulbs!

6. Popsicle molds

K-cups are great to use as popsicle molds. If you have little ones at home who just want a tiny little treat, these will certainly hit the spot. Fill ’em with whatever you want and they will come out looking really cute.

7. Card holder

This one is super easy. Just cut a small slit in the bottom of the K-cup and you’ve got yourself a decorative card holder.

8. Dough

Much like the sand box, K-cups also work as great tools when playing with Play Dough!

9. Freezing herbs

Have herbs that are on the verge of going bad? Well now you’re really creating less waste! Use these tiny K-cup containers to store your herbs and then freeze them.

10. Stamps

If you want to get really creative, use your cups as stamps! With these stamps you can make so many things, let your imagination run wild.

11. Lamp

Now if this isn’t the most beautiful (and lit!) way to recycle, we are not sure what is!

12. Light ball

Another beautiful way to recycle! At this point, you’re just making straight-up art. It’s so beautiful and will leave you feeling so fulfilled.
