Trash Gone Pretty

You ask yourself trash pretty?  Well ya some trash can be transformed into something pretty, but this is not the case here.  No it is all about the vessel we throw our trash into.  So this story starts with my husband bringing home a new trash can, we kept tripping into it, knocking it down and it was just not pretty.  I have had this bakers rack for quite some years and I no longer needed the display space it offered.  I removed the bottom 2 shelves  & got said new trash can & stuffed it into the space where the racks were.  IT FIT!  The fit was very snug & asked my husband to remove the two bars that were in front of each shelf to allow for some additional breathing room.


BEFORE


This is where the bar was that helped hold up the shelf.  He removed two bars and I painted it black.
This is what it looks like now~  I told my husband I was proud of myself for thinking of this!  He thought it was pretty clever.  What do you think?
                                                                                 AFTER
I am thinking I want to paint something on the trash can itself, but I do not know what.  Any ideas?

I know I write as if I have hundreds of followers, when in fact I only have 6, but I want you to know that 
I LOVE YOU!  You all rock & I value your every comment.

Thank you & Many Blessings~
