15+ Creative Solutions to Problems You Never Knew Existed

There are some problems that you don’t think need a solution… until there is one. These sorts of invisible issues make life a little more stressful—a little more awkward—so once someone comes up with a way to solve them, you wonder, “Why didn’t I think of that?” From buying avocados to baking pan libraries, there have been some ingenious fixes to problems you never knew existed.

The answers to these conundrums lie in creative thinking. Often, this involves making a small tweak to an already-existing product. To get the “perfect” brownie, for instance, one cafe placed color-coded stickers on each serving that tells you what part of the pan the sweet treat came from. That way, it’s easy to spot an edge, corner, or center piece. And for shoppers who hate to be bothered by sales people, one store also uses the colored-labels trick—by simply picking up an orange or green basket, sales people will know which shoppers want help versus those who prefer to go it alone.

Check out the solutions to these problems, below. You’ll be saying “That’s a great idea!” in no time.
