Top 5 Crafts & DIY Gifts
1) Paintbrush Cleaner
The Brush Wash Paintbrush Cleaner saves time and water when cleaning up after your paint projects. Simply connect the cleaner to any standard garden hose and use the built-in brush comb to clean stubborn, dried-on paint from your paintbrush. Made in the USA.
2) Universal Picture Hanging Tool
Perfectly straight and perfectly hung frames thanks to this picture hanging tool. It guides you to place things in the best position without having to measure—and with fewer mistake holes. It's compatible with different types of hardware, but optimized for wire frames.
3) Non-Toxic Lubricating Solution - Home & Garage Bundle
NEXUS Green: Non-Toxic Lubricating Solution - 2 oz
4) Push & Hang Picture Hanging Tool
No hammer needed with this picture hanging system—and no measuring or guesswork, either. Just push and hang. Load one or two brads into the tool, straighten it up (thank you, built-in level), and push to insert them into your wall at the perfect angle and depth. Brads store in the tool to make it an even easier task.
5) Cubit AR Bluetooth Measuring Tool
This smart measuring tool helps ensure readings are accurate so your DIY job is on point. It works with an augmented reality app to show you how the completed project will look before you get started. It makes for better designing and easier installation by letting you know where every nail and screw needs to go.
