You Should Be Saving Those Used Coffee Grounds! Check Out All They Can Do

6- They rid the fridge of foul odors.

A cup full of dried coffee grounds works similarly to baking soda in that it traps odors naturally. Leave in your fridge for 2 to 3 days for maximum results!

7- They make a cheap, DIY air freshener.

These shabby chic inspired DIY air fresheners work to eliminate odors. And, best of all, they double as cute floral decorations for your sink—just add your favorite flower to the coffee ground mix!

8- They clean your dusty fireplace.

Is cleaning your fireplace making you sneeze? If so, drop some wet coffee grounds onto the layer of ash before you get into the nitty-gritty. This will help clump the dust together, allowing the sweeping to be a virtually dust-free task.

9- They work as natural stains for wood.

If you want to give your wood a more rustic look without all of the toxic chemicals, consider applying a cured, coffee-soaked piece of steel wool to the material. When left alone in a jar filled with grounds for a day or so, the wool will stain the wood lightly, giving it a weathered effect.
