OdorOuters. StinkSuckers. We like those names better than remodeez®, the charcoal remedy that “Outsmarts Smell,” but they work like magic. Activated charcoal is non-toxic, non-chemical, and really does remove odors and moisture. Perfect for the laundry pile, closets, gym lockers, storage bins, cars, boats, camping gear, backpacks—anywhere musty, chemical and all-too-human odors proliferate. You pick the pair of 3-1/2” dia purple circles, the 4” x 5” light-blue oval, or the 4” x 5” dark-blue rectangle.

One of our all-time favorite items, back in neon colors. These surprisingly sturdy fly-swatters have plastic grip-handles, mesh heads and extendability. Measure 10-1/4” long when compressed, but pull the 4-draw handle and they extend to a fly-smacking 28”. Yours will be bright yellow, lime green, fuchsia or orange, but they’re all attractive, and the flies won’t care.

For when you just can't drag yours around anymore? No, for out-of-sight cigarette butt and ash disposal. This mini-bucket, sans handle, is a 3-1/4" dia x 3-7/8" tall black-composition ashtray that can sit on a desk or table, or fit neatly into a car's cup holder. Its removable lid has (3) slots to hold lit cigarettes and a small, cigarette-diameter hole so the butts slide out of sight and go out for lack of oxygen. Cuts down ambient dead-butt odors, too.

We’re fascinated by this thing. It’s a collapsible Red-Riding-Hoodish dispan/basket for your sink and beyond, with solid gray plastic rim, base and folding picnic-basket style handles, plus silicone sides in fashionable chartreuse. Measures 15" x 11" x 5-5/8" when open but collapses down to just 1-1/2” high for storage. Could also be a very nostalgic shopping basket, dandy for collecting garden vegetables. Hose-off-able and pretty much niftiness itself. Holds water like a champ and is great for camping.

With justifiable pride, we offer for your consideration this set of fingernail and toenail clippers shaped like the appendage they're designed for. Keep these in your medicine cabinet and you'll never again suffer the heartbreak of inappropriate clipper application. In carbon steel with precision cutting blades, they measure 2” x 7/8” and 3-1/4” x 3/4”, hand and foot respectively.

Like sand through the hourglass, so are the apes of our lives. There might be better ways to waste, er, measure time than with a somber 9” tall polyresin monkey holding a large sand-filled hourglass, but we seriously doubt it. This particular primate chronometer sports brown trousers and a red smoking jacket with gold trim. His hourglass is 6-1/2” tall and fits beautifully in his monkey mitts, resting between his monkey toes on a 3/4” base. Sand runs out in 2 minutes 40 seconds to 3 minutes—perfect for a soft-boiled egg—which, as any primatologist will tell you, monkeys love!

You can do both with this non-functioning, fake electrical outlet that’s actually a small safe. Looks like an ordinary off-white outlet, but has a 7" x 2" x 2-1/4" cavity in back. Swap out a real outlet, or use the teensy drywall saw that’s included and make a new bogus one anywhere you like. This one even takes plugs for further verisimilitude. We suggest putting a burnt-out bulb in the lamp you plug into this outlet to fool the smarter burglars. Always work at least one step ahead.

Life, and needle-threading, is hard enough, so this little tailor's friend has a 3/32" loop with a white LED below it so you can see what you’re doing. Includes a pair of button-cell batteries and the threader has a cover plus a little hook so you can string it on something and find it in your sewing box.

Be good to your wooden and other water-averse surfaces by keeping these slate coasters always at the ready. They’ll stop condensation from dripping down the sides of your rocks glasses, or cans, or bottles or any other kinds of potentially dripping vessels. Each coaster measures approx 4"x 4" in a tasteful slate gray (duh) rough-hewn along the edges with a cushy bumper under each corner. Use chalk to write on them. Yeah, custom coasters—just your style.

Here’s our set of (3) colorless glass mini bottles (which you may consider vases) in a nice wicker basket. If you buy ’em in a Big Box, or an Arts & Crafts Emporium, you’re pretty much guaranteed to pay double our price. Vases/bottles are clear glass, approx 4” tall x 2” dia with shoulders that slope to openings that are approx 7/8” ID. Basket measures approx 5” long x 2-1/2” wide x 2-1/2” tall. Your basket will come in green, yellow or blue, pre-selected to match your outfit. Use the set simply as décor or make it function for you.
