What can I do with used coffee grounds? I been putting them in my compost, but it there any else creative with them? I was thinking about putting some in melt wax to make coffee candles.


Answers:
They make great body scrub and facial scrub- not only they make your skin soft because they exfoliate your skin, they also tighten your skin and improve circulation, because of the caffeine. Make sure to rinse thoroughly.
They are also good for potted plants.

Here is a website that list different ways of what to do with used coffee grounds.

Spread them in any area you have slug or snail hassle. Good anti body and bio-degradable

They're good for potted plants.

they can be used to exfoliate the skin on your body. Put them in a pouch made from old pantyhose along with some rolled oats. rub over skin ,either in a bath or shower. perfect before waxing . do not recommend for face.

rub them on your hands... then rinse your hands... they make them feel soooooooo soft...
works really great. i have such dry skin on my hands..
used coffee grinds are awesome for that

Composting is a great idea. However, I would advise against putting them in a candle, since any moisture from the grounds can cause the handle to crackle and hiss. Also, the grounds can catch fire and then smolder, smoke or snap.

I put mine around my rose bushes. Also use my egg shells for that too.

How about making a log for a fireplace.
