Upcycle Your Trashcan/Recycle Can

We have 2 trash cans in our kitchen - one for trash and one for recyclables. People often get confused as to which one is which so I needed to change it so it would be more clear.

Originally I had taken painters tape and done this to our recycle bin but the tape was falling off and it was time to do something new and fun.

I found these wall stickers and letter stickers at Dollar Tree.


I first cleaned the trashcan inside and out, and let it dry completely.

I placed the wall stickers onto the front of the trash can. I picked the tree wall sticker as to me it reminded me of being Eco Friendly.

Next I added the word Recycle with the letter stickers above the tree wall sticker. This would make it even more clear that this is our recycle bin. I love how it turned out!
