Being unique is all about coming up with something new, or, more likely, putting a new spin on something that already exists, as is the case with most of the examples in this list of the top April 2015 unique ideas.
It might seem counter-intuitive to create a bandage that makes it appear as though you are bleeding, or ill-advised to sky-rocket a margarita to outer space in celebration of National Margarita Day, but these are exactly the types of products and stunts that merit the "unique" label. Not only are they unprecedented, they also provide a new perspective on something that was otherwise tired and familiar.
The top April 2015 unique ideas champion the value of looking at things from a different angle.
