NOVELTY - A composting device for composting organic matter comprises a hollow container, a removable top cover (30), an ornament (34), and a pivot bar (102). The container has a bottom end, a top end, and at least one sidewall (28). The top end includes a charge opening. The removable top cover cooperates with the top end of container to cover charge opening. The top cover is removable to expose the charge opening. The top cover includes a connector portion. The ornament includes a corresponding connection portion cooperating with the connection portion for mounting ornament on top cover.    USE - For composting organic matter.    ADVANTAGE - The composting device is efficient and attractive. The composting is an attractive composter for display in a persons yard or garden. The top cover of the composting device together with ornament pivots about the remainder of the container and thus, the ornament and top cover of the composting device together pivot about the remainder of the container. Therefore, the ornament does not need to be removed from the top cover when accessing the charge opening to add compost matter to the container. The top cover pivots, with the ornament still attached, via a pivot rod to thereby expose the charge opening. Feet on the bottom of the composting device, provide stability as the weight of the top and the ornament are pivoted to expose charge opening. These feet are easily buried under, for example, soil to provide further stability. The device improves insulation from the cold while still providing sufficient ventilation.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - A composting device for composting organic matter comprises a hollow container, a removable top cover (30), an ornament (34), and a pivot bar (102). The container has a bottom end, a top end, and at least one sidewall (28) extending between bottom end and top end. The top end includes a charge opening for adding the organic matter. The container also has a discharge opening proximal the bottom end for removing compost matter. The container is a parallelepiped and has four sidewalls extending between bottom end and top end. The removable top cover cooperates with the top end of container to cover charge opening. The top cover is removable to expose the charge opening. The top cover includes a connector portion. The ornament includes a corresponding connection portion cooperating with the connection portion for mounting ornament on top cover. The pivot bar is coupled to the removable top cover and to container for pivoting the top cover about container, between a closed position and open position. In close position, the top cover is disposed at top end, and covers charge opening. In open position, top cover is pivoted away from the top end thereby exposing the charge opening. The pivot bar is coupled to a corner post disposed between two of the sidewalls of the container. The sidewall includes inner side panel having openings for ventilation and an outer side panel attached to inner side panel, thereby providing a double-walled structure. The device includes several feet (38) fixed to bottom end of the container. An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is included for a composting device kit for assembly into a composter for composting organic matter, comprising several sidewalls, attachment device, charge opening, and removable top cover.
