    Many thanks to Mary and Trigirl!

    I've rounded up kitty litter buckets from freecycle.org! YAY!

    A friend at work and I are going to make these together. We are thinking that people are going to be begging for the instructions. It's kind of like Pay it Forward!

    Now, people all over Fort Wayne, IN will be traveling around with reused kitty litter buckets.

    Oh - what kind of paint did you use?

    I think Mary used Krylon. I used Valspar for plastic. Even tho I sanded to rough up the surface, it still comes off if it gets scratched. I think as long as you buy a paint for plastic you'll be fine. They make a plastic primer, and maybe I should try that next time.
    I just picked up 2 more kittly litter buckets from another lady on freecycle. They are different. The lids don't come off, but hinge at the top. I might like that, too. I think I'll make them into panniers and then decide on my favorite pair.
