This is such a cute miniature garbage pail that I keep on my kitchen counter ! I put egg shells or the peels of potatoes when I am cooking. Its a great way to keep your peels or shells and anything that you would like to keep contained instead of having the mess all over the counter !! I also compost, so its an attractive container for your coffee grounds, egg shells etc....then when your ready to take it out, it all right in this miniature trash can with the swinging lid, lol... Its about 6 1/2 inches high by about 5 inches round. It will be a piece that your company will surely notice !!
