Barbara K! Tools for Women

www.barbarak.com


bktools.jpg (7615 bytes)

The trendy thirty-piece tool kit makes do-it-yourself household solutions what Founder and Designer Barbara Kavovit calls "empowering and fun." The Barbara K! line of tools was designed by a woman, with women in mind. Repairing a broken showerhead, a wobbly doorknob, a leaky faucet, and all of those other little challenges are a snap with the right tools.

The hammer and screwdrivers, for example, are equipped with non-slip handles that are ergonomically designed to accommodate manicured hands.



Barbara K’s tips on how to survive and even master day-to-day household solutions:


Add a Surface Mounted Lock

For an extra sense of security without the cost of a locksmith, install the lock of your choice from your local home improvement center. With the proper tips from the www.barbarak.com website, you can screw in the receiver of the chain or bolt lock on your doorframe trim in a matter of minutes.


Hang a shelf

Hanging a single shelf on metal braces is a simple way to create additional storage space in your home. Using a level makes you sure that you are properly installing your shelf. Simply adjust the shelf until the level’s air bubbles are centered in the indicating lines. Then, measure the shelf and determine how many metal braces you will need. Assess the mark where the braces will be placed, knowing that they should be spaced twenty to thirty-two inches apart. These steps provide the empowerment to fully enhance both the beauty and practicality of your surroundings.


Retrieve jewelry from a sink

Losing jewelry in a sink always provokes a gasp and leaves a feeling of helplessness. Yet, to easily overcome this situation all you need are slip joint pliers, a lighted screwdriver with an extending magnet, and fifteen minutes of your time. If extending the magnet on the lighted screwdriver down the drain doesn’t work, the next step of removing the pipe trap below the counter is far from difficult. Always remember not to over-tighten the pipe and to check for leaks after the job is done!


Congratulations! You just did it yourself!
