Upcycling your coffee cube

Our happy® cube packaging isn’t just designed to brighten your countertop and keep our coffee fresh—it’s also 100% curbside recyclable AND super fun to reuse. Whether you’re into upcycling, reducing waste, or love a good DIY project, here are some fun, functional, and earth-friendly ways to reuse your cube.

1. Use as a Drawer Divider

Pop a few cubes into any drawer to instantly create compartments for socks, accessories, desk supplies, or anything else that needs a home. It’s an easy way to bring order to the chaos.

2. Create a Mini Planter

With a little love, soil, and maybe a drainage hole your cube can become a stylish home for succulents, herbs, or small flowers. Bonus points if you plant something you can enjoy while sipping your next brew. (pro tip: a little basil in your brew is really delish)

3. Repurpose It as a Gift Box

The cube’s sturdy, happy design makes it an adorable (and eco-friendly) gift box. Just add a bow or ribbon, and you’ve got a ready-to-go package that spreads joy in more ways than one.

4. Use It as a Snack Container

Perfect for stashing trail mix, granola, or treats in your bag, car, or desk drawer. Your cube can keep the healthy (or not-so-healthy, we don’t judge) snacks handy throughout your day.

5. Make a DIY Charging Station

Tidy up those tangled cords! Cut openings for chargers and turn your cube into a compact charging dock that keeps your tech organized while adding a cheerful touch to your nightstand.

6. Build a Mini First Aid Kit

Pop some band-aids, gauze, and pain relievers inside and keep your cube in your car, backpack, or office drawer. It’s an easy, portable way to keep the essentials close.

7. Keep Your Keepsakes Safe

Store your special notes, ticket stubs, tiny souvenirs, and other sentimental treasures in your cube. It’s the perfect way to keep little happy moments safe.

8. Organize Your Art Supplies

Beads, buttons, thread, ribbon, tape—you name it! Crafters will love using the cube to sort and store small materials, making creativity just a little more organized (and a lot cuter).

9. Turn It Into a Desktop Organizer

Say goodbye to messy desks! The cube makes a perfect holder for pens, scissors, sticky notes, and more. Keep your workspace as joyful and organized as your morning coffee ritual.

10. Store Small Toys

Parents, meet your new toy storage solution. The cube is the perfect size for Legos, action figures, crayons, or card games—plus it’s lightweight and portable for on-the-go adventures.

11. Organize Your Seeds

Gardeners, this one’s for you! Use your cube to neatly store seed packets and keep your gardening dreams in one happy little box.

12. Hold Recipe Cards

Cooking something special? The cube makes a perfect home for recipe cards and printouts. It’s compact, cute, and keeps your kitchen clutter-free.

13. Make a Coin Bank

Cut a simple slot in the lid and you’ve got yourself a playful piggy bank. Use it for loose change, saving up for your next order of happy coffee, or to teach little ones about money.

14. Art for Art’s Sake

Give your Happy Coffee cube a second life as a canvas! Paint it, doodle on it, collage it—whatever brings you joy. It’s a low-pressure, high-happiness way to create something just for the fun of it.

15. Build a Bee Hive

Support your local pollinators by transforming your Happy Coffee cube into a mini bee hotel. With a few simple materials like hollow twigs or rolled paper, you can create a cozy spot for bees to rest and thrive.
