Quirky’s ‘Petal Drops’ Turns Soda-Bottle into Rain-Catcher
Posted in: Environment, household, Today's Chili
Quirky’s hive-mind has done it again. The design-by-community site will now sell you Petal Drops, a flower-shaped cap which screws onto any old plastic water-bottle, turning it instantly into a tiny water-barrel, ready to water the plants.
The floral funnel collects the rain and at the same time makes the old bottle good-looking enough to leave in the garden: you won’t end up looking like that terrible neighbor with the old car parts and construction materials in his now unsightly front yard.
By now, you know how Quirky works. The products go on pre-order, and are made when the minimum number of orders have been placed. Then, the profits are split, with a proportion going to the “influencers” who helped design the product. This time, the price is just $5.25, and the order threshold has already been crossed. Go get ‘em.
