Millions of cups of coffee are brewed all over the world every single day – but unfortunately most of the leftover coffee grounds are simply thrown in the trash.
What most people don’t know is that there are so many brilliant uses for them, that throwing them out is a real waste. I've just found a great article at NaturalLivingIdeas.com that reveals 14 amazing ways to re-use old coffee grounds.
Here are three of the top ideas:
- Coffee as a powerful garden fertilizer – Mix used coffee grounds with used grass clippings (to neutralize the acidity) and add to your plants. The mixture will add nitrogen and potassium to the soil and boost plant growth.
- Deodorize your refrigerator – Add an open container of coffee grounds to your refrigerator and absorb smelly odors!
- Exfoliate skin – Used coffee grounds added to a little water and coconut oil makes a great exfoliator to remove dead skin cells. Plus, coffee is a great natural ingredient for getting rid of cellulite!
TOP TIP: Most coffee shops simply throw their used coffee grounds in the trash. Approach your local coffee shop and chances are you’ll be able to nab yourself some free used coffee grounds!
