I decided to conceal the trash and recycling in the diaper box, while keeping them separate. I used a big Cheerios box for the recycling bin and swapped the big trash can with a smaller one in our bathroom that somehow got chipped on the rim. Since it would be concealed in the diaper box, I didn’t mind using it here. I like how they’re contained together, but the two bins can be removed separately when needed.
######
I cut off the tops of the boxes, then covered the boxes with kraft paper (mine is from IKEA just because I was there, otherwise I would have gotten it at the dollar store).
######
I decorated the outside with some scrapbook paper. I cut 1-inch strips and cut them into parallelograms. I cut half facing one way and the other half facing the other way.

Joining them together, you make a chevron or zigzag pattern.
######
I glued them on all the way around, spacing each row about 1.5 inches apart.
######
Much better, and fits perfectly. Didn’t take too much time, and used things that I already had in my stash.
######
A year later, I’m still using it!
