When Life throws a Trash Can....

I cover it in Roses!

A few years ago for Christmas my son gave me a nice big trash can.

Glistening white, a blank slate, No Way would I tolerate seeing goobers or nasty spill marks or a potato peel on such a pristine surface!



I painted big fluffy, happy roses and buds all over it. It became my new Laundry Hamper! Sure makes Laundry time less yukky.



Although I do occasionally see this, I'd rather that than icky gross trash goobers.



Thanks for dropping by on Pink Saturday!

Now on to the laundry...

Happy Pink Saturday,
Melissa

    What a great idea! And I agree. I could never put "garbage" into such a great container.

    Happy Pink Saturday!

    Such a l♥vely post for Pink Saturday. This is the one day of the week when I get to visit some of the best blogs in cyberspace and indulge my passion for pink.

    Happy Mother's Day. I wish you all the peace and joy that a day in celebration of motherhood can bring. You don't have to grow a baby in your womb to be a mother...all you have to do is to l♥ve a human being with compassion and tenderness.
