Trash icon from the Noun Project
Want to make it easy to keep clutter at bay? One strategy is to have plenty of wastebaskets — which can also serve as recycling bins — throughout your home or office, so there's always one handy. And while I've found many delightful wastebaskets in the past — see that list of related posts — I've now found even more.
Let's start out with a splash of color with this wastebasket from Wayborn, available through Bellacor.
These Paperbag wastebaskets, designed by Jos van der Meulen and manufactured by Goods, are made from unused billboard posters. In the U.S., you can find them at Switchmodern and Greener Grass Design.
On a similar note, Kay + Stemmer made some limited edition wastebaskets from recycled fruit boxes.
Ekobo makes bamboo trash bins in two sizes and eight colors. One place to buy them is Matteria.
John Robshaw Textiles has foldable wastebaskets in three patterns.
Camille Love Designs has a number of trash cans, most of which don't appeal to me — but I do like these elephants.
RJ Fine Woodworking has wood wastepaper baskets in two sizes, made from various woods; the one above is made from American walnut burl.
If you have $1,000 or so to spend on a wastebasket, you might like the ones from Fornasetti. You can find them at Palazzetti andUnica Home.
And then there's Dustbin, from Brendan Ravenhill — a wastebasket with a dustpan lid, and a magnetized brush attached to the side. [via Ecosalon]
Finally, for all those who like the Vipp trash bins, you can now get a digital version — a Windows/Mac icon to replace the standard wastebasket icon. [via Mocoloco]
