Get your undesirable trash bin and lightly coat it in Mod Podge.
I recommend that you do it in sections because the Mod Podge dries rather quickly.
Mine was an octagonal shaped bin, so it was fairly easy.

Stick on your magazine cut outs carefully.

Using a credit card or something similar to flatten out the piece you suck on and remove any air bubbles.

Once you've finished decorating the whole bin, you can add another coat of Mod Podge to seal it. it goes on white but dries clear.
