SMART STUFF #11, VOLUME 3. NOVEMBER 2007 |..1..2..3..4..5.....>![]() Help loading moving boxes. Moved house recently? Neither have we, but we still remember what is was like. One of the more irritating things was keeping the flaps of the storage boxes open while loading them. You often pack with one hand and try to keep the flaps out of the way with the other. Now we have found a solution to this problem. Instead of wrestling with the flaps, you just fold the flap outward and slide a Tiger Taco over the fold. A Tiger Taco is a piece of steel or plastic, bent to a u-shape like a taco that locks the flaps in an open position. Smart. Four orange steel Tiger Tacos are USD 18:95. Their plastic brethren are USD 4:95 also for four. [Via] 1 November 2007 ![]() Dishtowel mitts. Get the mitts on and start drying those dishes. The gloves or mitts have a terry-cloth surface and a water proof layer so you do not have to get your hands wet. We know it is a lot more convenient to use the dishwasher, but these mitts would probably be great when you want perfectly spotless wine glasses without any fingerprints. Available in red or white and USD 15:- a pair.

Of course you need a bathroom rug to avoid flooding the entire room after you have had your morning shower. If you want to move around before you are dry, you can always slide the rug forward with your feet. We have done this many times without much trouble, but designer Paolo Ulian has conceived an even more elegant solution; a bath mat with integrated slippers. It is USD 50:-, which may be a bit harsh. But there is something more disturbing than the price tag. Have a look at the picture. Aren't there too many hairy legs? [Via] 1 November 2007 ![]() Trio - the peeler with three blades. This must be the Swiss Army Peeler. It sports three different blades hidden in the handle, and you shift by pulling one blade in, positioning another by turning the knob at the end, and pushing the new one forward with your thumb. A bit like those fat ball point pens with different colored points. The peeler, named Trio (surprise) has one ordinary straight blade for taters or squash, a serrated one for tomatoes, and a julienne cutter to make cool carrot curls. When you are not using it, all blades can be stored in the handle. The Trio is USD 14:95.
