Back in January, I wrote about getting rid of our yard waste bin. You can read that post here. In that post, I talked about a DIY wire leaf bin that you can use instead and reap the benefits of this compost. Today's post is an update now that we have one for ourselves.
While doing some spring cleanup in the yard in April I decided to give the lawn a good raking. We didn't have a leaf bin put together yet but I was getting quite a bit of grass and leaves that needed to go somewhere. Luckily Handsome Husband was available to remedy this problem most terrible.
We had the supplies on hand so he was able to whip it together pretty fast. It took him 10 or 15 minutes total. It is 4 feet in diameter and 4 feet tall. I did all of the proper calculations and it holds a bunch of sh!t from the yard. Bunch is the exact number by the way. Wire, stakes and a big strong man is all that is needed to put this together. I suppose in a pinch a regular man or a woman could execute this project but if you should have a big strong man around this clearly falls under the man's work category. Don't email me or comment that I'm sexist, you and I both know this is man's work.
This wire leaf bin is so simple and inexpensive I wish I had known about it sooner. Now you can put together one for yourself. You're welcome.
Here is our glorious wire leaf bin.
