Look Good, Do Good: 10 DIY Recycling Bins to Make Your Bathroom Greener
By Sarah Kim
Want to look good and do good? Then you're in luck! DoSomething.org and Garnier teamed up to launch the Rinse, Recycle, Repeat campaign to encourage young people to promote recycling in a creative way.
Nearly half of Americans don't regularly recycle their beauty and personal care products. That's a major reason these items account for a significant amount of landfill waste. One easy, impactful way to recycle empty beauty and personal care products (aka empties!) is to make fun and creative bins for bathrooms and encourage others to do the same.
Join 26,608 DoSomething.org members who have already created eye-catching recycling bins for their home and college dorm bathrooms. When you submit a picture of yourself and your decorated recycling bin, you'll enter to win a $5,000 scholarship!
Here are 10 cool and creative recycling bins for inspiration!

To change the world, we have to start with the little things, such as rinse, recycle, and repeat." - Nia, 18
