Hey Guys...More Stuff for You!

I put this stuff up there for the guys, but I have to admit...these are pretty much all my tools (except for the duct tape). I had to use mine because nobody can ever find my husband's...not even him. So while this stuff was posted for the handy-men out there, I really do know that women make use of these things almost as often as men.

My husband bought this staple gun for me because I couldn't use the old regular one anymore. I don't have the hand strength that I once had and found I couldn't get the staples to go into anything...not even a simple job like recovering a footstool. This one, though - it just works like a charm.

This is my little "ladies" hammer. Smaller and lighter than a normal hammer, it's been pretty handy for hanging small pictures and building crafty projects (small birdhouses, my dollhouse and miniatures). I like it's weight - it isn't so heavy that it throws my aim off like the heavier ones, but it's not much good for driving in heavy nails.
