Throughout this weekend that kicked off the holiday shopping season I found several items that I can put on my Christmas list. One item is a tool kit that features all pink tools. It has a pink hammer, pink screwdriver, as well as a safety utility knife. My mother-in-law had a hammer that she painted flowers on the handle so that her husband or one of her sons wouldn’t carry off with them. Her thought was that they wouldn’t want to be caught with such a feminine looking hammer, and she was right.
I can never find tools when I need them. If I had my own set and especially if they were pink, I doubt they would be used by my husband. Knowing him he would probably use them since they would be new. But with the pink handles, I could easily tell which tools were mine and put them back in their right place.
