Perfect Little Toolbox

Purple Star emoji 16 items
This list is tools everyone should have in their home or apartments.  Great for everyday light repairs and little fixes.  I chose budget friendly items, but you can always buy big name brands if you want.

Effective and affordable.  Ideal for opening boxes.  Great for breaking down boxes and cutting thin material.  You can get more expensive, but they're basically doing the same as this.  I always have a few around the house.

I always keep these around.  A little goes a long way and you can bond most common household materials with this stuff.  Plus, with the small tubes, you can do a bunch of small repairs and not have to worry about wasting a whole bottle.

I used to mess around with nails and elaborate picture hangers, but now I keep these around.  Just push into the wall and leave the little hook exposed and you can hang quite a bit.  Pack comes with two sizes for a large range of weights.
