A Well-Appointed Toolbox!

When my children started to fly the coop (i.e. head to college), I gave each of them a tackle box full of tools as part of their "Survival Kit for College".  The tools came in handy on move-in and move-out days, for both my girls as well as their roommates and friends who came tool-less!  The tool box idea was such a success, that I now give Tackle Box Tool Kits to college-bound, or first-apartment family members and friends.

Now my daughters have moved to the next level, with actual tool boxes.  And I can still fondly recall the day I bought my one daughter an electric drill.  She was "over the moon", and I was pretty proud of myself for even considering the gift!  Tools are gender-neutral, and on the list of essentials for dorm life, apartment life, or home ownership!  With that said, I have compiled a list of Tool Box basics for your perusal.  Just one more "tool" to living a life well organized!
