Materials: Effektiv Cabinets, Varde Countertop, Chrome trim rings, garbage cans
Description: One of my clients needed a clean solution for their garbage, so I came up with this.
Step One - Remove the back panel from one Effektiv cabinet to allow room for the garbage cans.
Step two - Pull the cabinet forward from the wall, cut removed back panel to use on the end to hide the space behind.
Step three - Add and cut holes in the Varde counter top and the top of the Effektiv cabinet.
Step four - Glue polished stainless steel trim rings into place. Notes: We also added a back splash made from a scrap piece of the Varde counter top....and you can see one of the garbage cans is missing! It was on order when we took the pictures.
Enjoy!

Lovely idea love to know if they smell or get flies? Was thinking of something similar really well done.
ReplyDeleteThat was my worry too. I know we are asked by the recycling co. to wash everything out, we are also asked by the water co to conserve water
ReplyDeleteWhere did you get the trim rings?
ReplyDeleteWow good job. I don't enclose my recycling bins/bags as I always wash things out. I always thought that you can't send packaging to the recycling if it has food scraps encrusted on it anyway - it's just good practice to clean everything out first!
ReplyDeleteIt's a great idea. I'm now buying Ikea furnitures for my house and I will apply some of the tips watched in here. Thanks! And if you want cooking receipes, don't forget to take a look at http://www.elrincondeafi.es
ReplyDeleteOr buy a smaller trashcan and make it easier on yourself
ReplyDeleteLooks fantastic! I am having trouble finding similar trim rings. Where did you get them?
