1. Shape the Basket
Start with a wire basket from the dollar store.
To give it a rounded coffee cup shape, press down toward the bottom until it creates a slightly flattened, indented base.
This will help it sit securely on your countertop while keeping its curved "tea cup" structure.
2. Bend and Attach the Handle
Take a metal wreath hanger and carefully bend it to create a curved handle shape.
Hold it up to the basket to decide where you want it to attach.
Once you're happy with the placement, apply a strong glue to the spots where the handle meets the basket.
Hold the handle in place and allow the adhesive to fully set before moving on.
3. Paint the Handle and Tag
Using black chalk paint, coat the entire handle for a sleek, finished look.
While the handle dries, paint a small metal tag with the same black chalk paint to match.
This will be the decorative accent for your Coffee Pod Holder.
4. Add the Cafe Label
Once the tag is dry, stick metal letter stickers onto it to spell "CAFE."
For extra detail, add small jewel studs around the letters for a stylish touch.
Then, attach the tag to the front of the basket using strong glue.
5. Finishing Touches
Check for any visible glue spots and touch them up with black paint to create a clean, polished look.
Once everything is dry, your DIY Coffee Pod Holder is ready to use! Fill it with coffee pods and enjoy your organized coffee station.

Cute if you only have one flavor. In our house we have three flavors in rotation. We use coffee maker shelf with drawer under shelf that organizes flavors so you can keep up with inventory. I can see all those “clean hands” picking through to get what they want. Icky. Great for a single person home
