I don’t know if this would really count as a DIY I think its more of a life hack but if your ever tired of putting plastic garbage bags in your trash because of the little holes they sometimes have, it’s easier just to put a more durable and heavy duty one in (the bigger white garbage bags in a smaller trash) and then just push it in and it holds all the trash you need, even in a small room trash.
You have some of the most innovative projects I’ve seen, from the Dollar Store. I love the way you think. Thanks so much for passing on your talent.

I have been looking for the trashcans featured in idea #2 for a LONG time. I haven’t even been able to find them on the Dollar Tree website. I need HELP!!
Any ideas? Does anybody know the name of this item so I can find it online? I appreciate any help anyone can give me. Thank you
Hi Kim,
Unfortunately, I am unable to locate this item myself. Sometimes these items are sold for a limited of time and I believe this trash can was a different colour but then DIYed into turquoise. However, you can find similar trash cans online and repurpose it into a nightstand and spray paint it into your colour of choice. 🙂 Thank you for visiting.
I use the glass marbles in a recycled jar to hold flowers or candles. Thank u
I used photo frames and candle holders to make a bathroom tray for toothbrushes, makeup brushes, Q tips, etc. I took spray painted the entire frame silver including the glass silver to mimic a mirror. Arrange them in a V shape,and tie a bow around the center one to match decor. These were a huge hit. I was kind of jealous to not have made one for myself! If I could, I’d include the final image of how it turned out!
That’s awesome!!!! I would love to see it Lisa.
