Switch to a Single-Serve Coffee Maker? What To Do With Old Coffee Filters.

So you are probably like me and bought a Keurig® coffee maker and you had a gazillion coffee filters before you fully transitioned. If you haven't donated them to a friend and you find they are taking up valuable space in your pantry or cabinets but likewise don't want to them taking up space in the land-fills because they obviously are still useful, then here are some great suggestions from This Old House: 10 Uses for Coffee Filters


Make house plants less messy with coffee filters.

If you want the quick scoop This Old House suggested using coffee filters the following ways:
  1. Preventing rust in cast iron skillets
  2. Keeping hardware organized
  3. Making air freshners
  4. Keeping windows clean
  5. Fixing wobbly table legs
  6. Straining solvents
  7. Making houseplants less messy
  8. Absorbing spills on upholstery
  9. Prepping a stain (as in the kind you use with a paintbrush)
  10. Shining shoes.
