We don’t often do blog posts about waste paper bins, but this one was so nice we had to give it a mention.

It dates from the 1950s and features chic French scenes – a very fashionable decorative theme from this era.

The bin was made by Worcester Ware – a company well worth looking out for as they produced some fabulous everyday metalware – tins, trays, placemats etc.

It would fit perfectly into a French look, shabby chic bedroom or 50s-inspired lounge.
