So, this isn't really a post about something I have have upcycled. This is a post about something I installed during my kitchen renovation to help with my upcycling obsession!
Okay, Okay - it is just a couple of trash cans under my cabinet in my kitchen. But, here's the deal. I used to have two bins sitting on my counter just to the left of the sink where I sorted recycling for 'outside' (stuff that I didn't want) and recycling for me (for upcycling!).
Now, I can just roll the bins back into the cabinet after depositing my recycling - no more 'trash' on my counter!
I have the bins close to the sink because some things need to be rinsed or washed (if I'm keeping them) before they go into the bins.
Also, before you ask - I don't want the 'trash trash' under the counter because I often have messy hands when I'm throwing real trash away. I have a stainless steel trash can with a foot pedal that lifts the top for that stuff.
So there it is - a small but very HUGE improvement in my crazy system that is upcycling and recycling.
Enjoy and Upcycle Life!!
