ITEM-CONTAINING PILLOW
A pillow that contains an item, such as a gift, wherein the pillow can be opened to access the gift. The pillow includes an aesthetic external appearance. This appearance may be provided by a printed covering that is disposed on the outside surface of the pillow. The pillow preferably includes one or more closure mechanisms, such as one or more zippers. Tethers may be provided on the closure mechanism(s), and piping may be included on the covering. The piping not only effectively hides the teeth of the closure mechanism (s), but also improves the look and style of the exterior of the pillow. A flap and tassels may instead be provided on the pillow. Given that the pillow is configured to contain an item, is configured to be opened to remove the item, is configured to be closed once the item has been removed, and has a decorative external appearance and/or brand recognition appearance, the pillow is unique in that it doubles as both packaging and a throw pillow useable after the item has been removed.
Foldable serving utensils
This disclosure describes foldable serving utensils, such as serrated, partially serrated and unserrated spatulas and serving scoops, with sharp or dull edges, that can be comprised of bendable material that can be incised, scored, perforated and folded, such as cardboard, and that can be integrated into planar lids and surfaces of boxes and other containers, such as pizza boxes.
Packaged Food Product and Method of Producing the Packaged Food Product
A packaged food product includes a container and a food product. The container has a rim and at least one wall extending away from the rim. The at least one wall defines a storage area, and the food product is retained within the storage area such that the food product is in contact with the at least one wall. The at least one wall is readily deformable by a hand of a user to reduce a volume of the storage area. Reducing the volume of the storage area causes the food product to exit the storage area. The container includes an integral tool portion including a tine extending from a distal end of the tool portion for breaking up the food product after removal from the storage area. The food product can be a wet cat or dog food.

CAP FOR FORMING A MODULAR SYSTEM
A cap for a spout of a thin-walled flexible package which has a flattened head having a viewing region, at least one left tooth and at least two right teeth is provided. The at least one left tooth is suitable for being inserted with interference into a right housing to form a first joint and build a modular structure particularly appealing to children.
Method for installing a covering relative to a frame of an architectural structure and associated alignment tools
A method for installing a covering relative to a frame of an architectural structure includes unfolding a package defining a cavity configured to store the covering, with the package including an alignment tool. Furthermore, the method includes positioning the alignment tool relative to the frame such that a first panel of the tool is positioned adjacent to a vertically-extending surface of the frame and a second panel of the tool is positioned adjacent to horizontally-extending surface of the frame. Additionally, the method includes forming mounting holes in one of the vertically-extending surface at first mounting hole locations identified by apertures defined by the first panel or the horizontally-extending surface of the frame at second mounting hole locations identified by apertures defined by the second panel.
BIODEGRADABLE PACKING PRODUCT AND PET LITTER
A packing product is disclosed herein that includes pieces that each have a shape for absorbing impact. The shape can be an elbow-like shape, a v-shape, a u-shape, a helix shape, a tubular shape, an angled hollow tube, a coiled spiral, or some other shape configured to absorb impact in various versions. Each of the pieces can be formed by shaping a pulp comprising paper, sawdust, an antimicrobial agent, and water. The pieces are configured to maintain structure under pressure without snapping or breaking. The product can be used for packaging and shipping an item, then repurposed as a pet waste product, and finally for composting or recycling such as for use in gardening or lawn care.

PACKAGING BOX
A packaging box includes a box body and at least one side cover. The box body includes a first sheet, a second sheet, a first opening, a second opening, and a first side portion. The second sheet is arranged opposite to the first sheet. The first sheet, the second sheet, and the first portion have a detachable sheet. The side cover covers the first opening and includes a first body sheet covering the first opening and a second body sheet fixed to the first opening with a protruding sheet. When the detachable sheet is detached, the box body is folded in half and the protruding sheet is bent and inserted into the second opening to fix the folded box body. A part of the box body where the detachable sheet is detached is used as a fixing portion. The packaging box serves packaging and supporting by changing shape.
