Evidently "translations" has become a sexy marketing term. Or does The Container Store mean that translations belong in the trash?
As seen on their website, this $25 wastebasket is "a très chic, environmentally friendly addition to your home. It’s made with authentic Japanese newspapers and magazines that have been beautifully ‘re-purposed.’ Each is a unique work of art."
The store’s marketing department may be a little confused in using the term, since the text on the trashcan is almost entirely Japanese (you can see a few English words if you look closely). Perhaps someone will provide a few translations for us.
At least they don’t call it an interpreting wastebasket.
Thanks to Marian Schwartz for spotting this.
