Wooden Coat Hangers

Even though wooden hangers are an undeniably classy choice in comparison to plastic hangers, the reason they are made from wood goes far beyond visual appeal. Wooden hangers are great for repelling moths and other pesky creepy crawlies that would otherwise be a daunting problem. The odor of the cedar wood used is not particularly enjoyed by creepy crawlies, thus keeping your garments safe! This saves you from having to stuff your closets with those awful smelling mothballs.

Colored Toothpaste Squares

Often we find on beautifully designed packaging what appears to be a random blemish. Usually a square or rectangle – check the bottom of your toothpaste tube. All those attractive colors and sparkling teeth spoiled by an odd block… Or is it there for a purpose? Well, apparently so and they even have a name for it; it is called an eye mark. It is put there for a machine to see, and thereby know, precisely where to cut or crimp the container. If those machines were just cutting tubes in random places, tooth brushing time would be a messy business!
