Waste bins out of ice buckets

My most recent project was to make waste bins out of some used ice buckets that I found. 

The ice buckets are perfect for this function becacuse they are lined inside and can be cleaned out easily.  They also have a lid to contain odors and mask the unsightliness of garbage.

Each of the buckets were in pretty good shape -- just switching out some hardware, stripping some embellishments and adding a few of my own, resulted in decorative, retro trash cans.

Of course, here's the best part... Photos!
