fun happy things

What’s in your tool box?

Let’s play a game of…what’s in your tool box? Well I will tell you!!

When I’m styling and decorating for events I need lots of supplies and tools for set up! Therefore I need a tool box to store all these supplies and tools…and obviously I need a really cute vintage one! 

I bought this awesome bright red tool box from Value Village..only $5.00!

What I need for my jobs:

* fishing line- so strong and you can’t see it when you hang items from the ceiling or anywhere else! I use this mostly for styling.

* Sharp garden scissors- I work with flowers at weddings and when I style a shot, it’s very important to have nice sharp scissors to be assemble, rearrange or keep your floral fresh! 

* floral tape & wire- for boutonnières and other floral arrangements 

* Wire cutters, pliers

* screw in hooks for hanging items with fishing line

* glue sticks, glue gun, strong tape, double sided tape- I forgot to include some of these items in the tool box when I took the pictures because I was using them at the time! You need lots and lots of glue and tape….a must!!!! I love my hot glue gun…can’t live without it! It bonds well, dries fast and it’s clear :)  

* nails, hammer - for hanging things, fixing things or constructing a new project 

* scissors & box cutter 

* twine- ALL KINDS!! It’s great to have to give that added touch to something :) 

* mini clothes pins- Why not?

Last but not least a mini sewing kit! Even though Erin and Corinne are super super organized at weddings and already have several of these kits it’s nice to just have one extra just in case…what if my dress rips? 

I stamped my name and contact on the tool box so everyone knows it’s mine ;) 

This goes everywhere with me…I keep it in my car! It’s like my second purse :)
