When you are decorating your home, do you ask yourself "What does my garbage can say about me?" Probably not. We are usually busy unloading boxes when we first move into a new home and frankly, the garbage can, although a necessity, is pretty low on the scale of importance. We don't normally think of it as part of the decor of our home. Well, why not? Everyone sees it, everyone uses it and everyone touches it.
What would it say about you if it could talk?
What would it say about who you are or what you think?
Why not let it speak for you!

- The title of your lens was intriguing. I sort of expected it was going to be about analyzing what we throw away! lol ... guess not. Actually, all of our trash cans are hidden, either in closets or under cabinets, but if they weren't, I'd definitely want something nice like these.

- Good job--I've been taking the trash up a 280 lane for almost 20 years--once a week. Tonight the moon was almost full with beautiful stars everywhere. So I can't say these expeditions are a pain. I use heavy duty contracter trash bags, and I highly recommend those!!

- I really like how you used the speech bubbles in this lens. Now what does my trash can say about me....obviously that I am incredibly boring, especially after seeing all these!
