Abstract
Display packaging packages an item to form a packaged item. The display packaging includes a front portion and a rear portion. The front and rear portions have apertures. The item has a through hole. The apertures in the front and rear portions and the item receive a display peg. When the item is held at least partially between the front portion and the rear portion, and when the display peg is received by the rear portion aperture, the through hole of the item, and the front portion aperture, the packaged item is rotatable to a plurality of non-resting orientations and only one resting orientation. When the packaged item is in any of the non-resting orientations, the packaged item automatically rotates to the resting orientation. The display packaging has displayed information. The displayed information is in a pre-determined orientation when the packaged item is in the resting orientation.
