"Whether you're tired of looking at an unsightly plastic garbage can - or that oversized chrome trash bin you thought would look "contemporary" is actually giving you a tension headache - a regular old laundry hamper might be the unsung hero your kitchen's interior design scheme needs. Innovative home cooks have taken to social media to share videos of how they convert their laundry hampers into kitchen garbage cans, a low-cost DIY hack we can get behind."
"To do it, simply slide a low-cost, unglamorous, utilitarian plastic or metal trash can into the wicker shell of a tall hamper (go ahead and discard that inner canvas liner bag, or repurpose it for another project). That's it. Now, aesthetically-minded home cooks have a lidded sheath for concealing "blah" cans from view in the middle of the kitchen floor. In its place, a pop of natural material warms up the entire room."
Slide a low-cost plastic or metal trash can into the wicker shell of a tall laundry hamper to create an attractive, lidded kitchen bin. Discard or repurpose the inner canvas liner bag and use the hamper lid to keep trash out of sight. The natural material of the hamper softens kitchen decor while allowing easy removal of the inner can for emptying. To control odors, choose a slightly oversized hamper and place a box of baking soda beside the inner bin to absorb smells. The conversion is inexpensive, simple, and widely shared on social media as a practical home hack.
