MOTHER NATURE’S VELVET CROCHET ($45,000 – $57,000)

In the 1940s, Swiss engineer, George de Mestral took his dog for a stroll in the woods. Little did he know the significance of this stroll! As the pair ventured through the forest, they collected unwanted hitchhikers – pesky burrs that clung to their clothes and fur.

Instead of being frustrated, George's curiosity was piqued.

He placed a burr under a microscope and discovered something extraordinary – tiny hooks that helped the burrs latch to surfaces.

Inspired by Mother Nature's clever design, George had a brilliant idea. Why not create a fastening system mimicking these natural hooks and loops? George tested different materials until he found the perfect match – nylon! It was strong, durable, and made the hooks and loops cling together like best buddies at a party!

In 1955, George patented his invention, giving it a fun name: Velcro! The name was a combination of the French words "velours" (velvet) and "crochet" (hook)!
