    DIY Never Looked So Good

    Toolbelt
    Why hire a handyman when you’ve got a woman around?  I mean really, are we or are we not taking repairs and home projects into our own hands and adding new meaning to the term equal opportunity?  Let’s even go a step further and add a hint fashion to the idea of Do It Yourself and what do you get?  S. Stein and her casual, chic, toolbelts and workbags that give women not only functionality for those around the house projects but also add a sense of style to those DIY moments.

    Today’s modern, industrious, woman has reinterpreted the definition of "handyman" and the bloggers at Charles and Hudson believe that women actually covet a great toolbelt or toolbag as much as men do. Popgadget explains that while these toolbelts, made of natural materials, may be on the spendy side, you can easily justify the cost when you think of all the money saved by doing the jobs yourself.  They even point out that these bags would be great for gardening too.

    Just think, how fun would it be to go to one of those Home Depot project seminars with your stylish toolbelt? You might even look like you know what you’re doing.
