We are recyclers in this family. We always have been. We try to recycle or reuse everything that we can in this house. If you look around our home, you will see jars being reused and glass all over the place from everything like jelly jars to bathroom products. If someone can be made out of it, we will make it. If it needs to be recycled, we put it in our recycling bin. Everything that gets thrown out first gets analyzed to see if there can be another purpose for it. We hope that you love this Upcycled Peacock K Cup Crafts.

What is a Keurig? Have you asked yourself are k cups really recyclable? What about are keurig k cups biodegradable? Are keurig plastic cups recyclable? Are keurig pods biodegradable?

  1. Remove foil top from k cup. You may need to use a utility knife if there is still foil left. Recycle the grounds, wash the Kcup pods with dish soap and dry thoroughly.
  2. Place cups opening side down on newspaper in a well ventilated space.
  3. Spray with one light coat of paint to create a tack coat. Dry for 5 minutes before adding another
  4. 1-2 coats to cover well. Dry final coat for an hour before continuing decorating.
  5. Hot glue 3-4 feathers on the back of your cup and 1 or 2 inside if desired for a full bushy tail.
  6. Add details like googly eyes, and a beak cut from yellow craft foam.

These fun and colorful peacocks are a great way to serve up a treat to little ones- popcorn, jelly beans, nuts, pretzel sticks, cereal, Skittles or any other small treat that will fit. They are a great way to squeeze a little more use out of the empty cups that would otherwise be tossed in the trash. Once cleaned and decorated the cups make the perfect size for a little treat to share with the class, surprise neighbors, or while the kids are watching tv. Don't waste the grounds in the cups; toss them into your compost bin or make a coffee scrub. We hope that you are inspired by this Upcycled Peacock K Cup Crafts. Happy crafting!
