But thanks to a handy hubby who was bored one day, and some old cedar pulled from a job they did, they turned into this:
Much better, don't you think?

First of all I dropped by from Tootsie's. Second, I cannot believe this post! My daughter's and I were talking just last evening about if we could talk their dad into doing just this very thing. I HATE our recycling bins on the porch....timely post!

Wow, that looks so much better. He did a great job on the box. Thankd for joining We're Organized Wednesday. Have a great day.
great job!
What a great idea. Your husband is obviously handy, that's always a plus.
This turned out beautifully. Perfect answer.
Blessings...Tracy :)
It looks great! I wish my hubby was so handy. I have two lovely blue bans right in the kitchen lol. But he does a good job making sure they get emptied each week! :)
Wow, I really really wish my husband could make that. Well, maybe he could try....I have those same yellow bins. I live in Polk
