If they are blue add some fish. make an underwater scene with some seaweed,starfish and maybe a seahorse or something else fishy. You have plenty of ideas swirling around in your head, Make something fun. Is there a prize for best decoration? Make us proud and show a pic of what you come up with.

Are you supposed to paint it or cover it with fabric? I have seen some pretty nice buckets with a lining and pockets on the outside - what will they use the buckets for - anything speical?

Thinking about your smiley face saw blade and thought about making smiley faces or using a design from one of your other metal art designs.

Saw a tree with a hula skirt and coconut top where my son goes to college. Not sure if your bin is tall enough but it sure is cleaver.

Well, I have seen some decorated like different things, like people, or robots, a cow... the possibilities are endless!

You could even just drape a nice piece of fabric around it, like a skirt. and you can make it removable by putting some velcro on the sides.

Look! I just found a link of some decorated ones. I hope you have fun with it, and share the pictures with us.

Love the fish/underwater theme!that was a GREAT suggestion! regardless, CONTACT paper will work like giant stickers! I know kmart carries it, probably walmart as well. check dollar stores!
If cans are blue, why not do sky theme with planes, clouds hotair balloons, etc. have fun! crazykat323
