This tape measuring tool helps you get an accurate reading in curves, corners, and hard-to-see spots. It’s as easy to use as it is accurate—just clamp it onto a tape measure and take the guesswork out of your task.

2) Stacking Solitary Bee Hive

Bees make great guests. Host them in this adorable, stackable bee habitat and they’ll pollinate flowers, fruits, and vegetables, making your garden lush. Made from sustainably sourced wood and designed to suit their needs, this hotel is good for the bees, the environment, and your backyard.

3) Push & Hang Picture Hanging Tool

No hammer needed with this picture hanging system—and no measuring or guesswork, either. Just push and hang. Load one or two brads into the tool, straighten it up (thank you, built-in level), and push to insert them into your wall at the perfect angle and depth. Brads store in the tool to make it an even easier task.

4) Retractable Ratchet Tie Down Strap
