    Since I’m the only coffee drinker in our house, it doesn’t make sense to make a full pot every day. I just brew a cup with my Keurig. But I do love to find ways to reuse K cups rather than throwing them into the garbage. (Recycled K cups are great for all kinds of crafts. But did you know you can reuse K cups as seed starters?)

    For this craft, you’ll want to save your used K Cups. Once they’ve been brewed, allow them to cool. Then remove the foil cover, cut out the filter liner inside and toss or compost it. Then wash the recycled K cups and set them aside until you’re ready to craft with them.

    Easter Bunny from Recycled K Cups

    Spring chick and Easter bunny treat cups made from recycled K cups

    We used a white K Cup to make the bunny. But if yours are a different color, paint the K Cup with white spray paint and let dry completely.

    Cut two ears out of white foam sheets. The ears should be a little longer than the height of the cup.

    Cut two small pink triangles to inside of the ears. Affix the two pieces together with hot glue.

    Cut one small pink triangle nose out of foam.

    Use hot glue to attach the eyes and nose to the front of the cup.

    Spray the K Cup with orange spray paint and let dry completely.

    Use green foam to make grass for carrot Easter treat cups

    Cut several pieces of green foam about the same height of the cup. Cut grass strands in the top 2/3 of the foam.

    Overlapping several pieces and different sizes of grass will give it a more dimensional carrot top.
