This is my new waste paper bin, not a garbage can haha! I made it out of 80+ walnut twigs and scraps I had laying around. I then wrapped it with a live edge piece of High Figure Maple all the way around the base. Probably one of my favorite little projects I have done!

Project beautiful. I ask the application, but it grieves me to spend (to spend) a nut and a maple for a box for paper. It is possible to replace with plasmasovy. I am sorry if I offended.

Very nice! The contrast of color and grain is very attractive. Defintely not a waste bin to put in a cabinet!

Nice way to use scraps. I like this nature edge boards at the bottom. Quite unique design.
