Five things to do with coffee filters … If you’re that bored at work today. 

Fill a coffee filter with baking soda, twist-tie it shut and you have just made an air freshener. Make several and tuck them into shoes, wardrobes, the fridge or wherever else they may be needed.

Don't let cork crumbs ruin your enjoyment of a good glass of wine. If your attempt at opening the bottles results in floating cork crumbs, just decant the wine through a coffee filter.

Next time you clean your glasses, try using a coffee filter instead of a tissue. Good-quality coffee filters are made from 100 per cent virgin paper, so you can clean your glasses without leaving lint. You can also use them safely to polish mirrors, TV and computer monitor screens.Coffee filters are microwave-safe.

Use them to cover bowls or dishes to prevent splattering when cooking or baking in your microwave oven.

Wear it like a hat.  Everybody will want one!
