I recently wanted to frame a cross stitch picture myself.  I was in need of a pH nuetral removable tape to tape the excess material onto the foam board where I had pinned the cross stitch.  After calling several frame shops and suppliers to see what they could recommend, I was happy to find this product.  This artist's tape not only held the material ...

My hubby bought this sealing tape because he needed one when he wanted to send a package to my parents. It’s from Kenko brand, a quite well-known brand for office accessories / stationery. Because it was meant to seal a big cardboard box (the package), my hubby chose the biggest size, though there might be smaller size. The width of this sealing tape is 5 cm and it’s a transparent s...

I am on what they call maintenance drugs or pain management for my back issues and RA, one of the medications is a morphine patch that I wear, much like a band aid that I change every 72 hours. During that time I am moving, walking, showering, so in order for the patch to be effective it needs to stay in place. I found out the hard way, that the only way for that to happen is to tape the patch ...

I package up quite a few items each month for shipping. I sell items on ebay and I also trade books online. This is the best tape I have been able to find that works and is easy to use. One roll lasts me approximately two months. It is inexpensive and can be found at Wal-Mart. I like the fact that it is durable and easy to use. I have never had a really hard time getting the tape started. I hav...

My husband and I are moving to another city in a little over a week.  The countdown is on (T minus 8 days!), and our apartment  is starting become a maze of stacked items and cardboard boxes.  To seal our boxes, I had been using a tape gun I had recently bought and the original roll of tape that came with it.  The tape gun has been great.  The tape has not!  It bar...

When we bought the school materials of my two kids, I thought of other items too that occasionally used by my daughter at school especially on her Art subject. My daughter loves Art but during their individual or group activities time is always of the essence. One issue of concern is their use of scotch tape. Although my daughter can use a scissor to cut it I want to make it more convenient for...

My hubby got this measuring tape for free from his company where he works. He works in a factory so his jobs are mostly involved with machines and tools. So this measuring tape is really a helpful tool that can help him in his workplace. The measuring tape is made by KDS, model YS-3005ME. It can measure at a maximum length of 3m or 10ft. There is a red-colored lock at the left side. So when you...

This Stanley twelve Footer was perfect for finishing the job, even though it was mall and inexpensive. I used it to finish the job and it since has become one of my favorites. It has a palm grip lever lock on the bottom which makes it much...

Many years ago when I was painting my ceilings in my mobile home for the very first time, I asked the saleswoman at Sherwin-Williams about how to paint along edges without slopping paint everywhere or spending huge amounts of money on masking tape. The saleswoman recommended that I buy a 10" Drywall Taping Knife to use as a paint edger. This is the best painting tool investment I have...

I work in an office, so you can imagine the wite-out that constantly gets used.  We have recently gone from the annoying liquid wite-out to the nice wite-out tape.  But is it really that much better?  After using it for a few days, it was a hands down winner.  But then it seemed like the tape would get caught up in the roll a little bit and not run as smooth.  I would l...

Oral-B Satin Tape is a dental floss that comes in a mint flavor.  The package I purchased was 15 yards of tape.  It comes in a blue flip top package.Oral-B Satin Tape is the only kind of dental floss I can use.  It seems that every other brand I try gets stuck in my tteth or is too hard to floss with.  The Satin Tape glides easily between my teeth and I am able to floss with...

Now I am not trying to sound dumb-but to the person that doesn't exactly understand measurements, this is the measuring tape for you. This Olympia 25' measuring tape is the easiest tape measure to use. It goes all the way down to 1/8 measurements and lists them on the tape. It ...

I bought the Laser Level by Fixit Tools for my hubby about 2 Christmases ago. I thought that he would absolutely just fall in love with it. It is a small tool designed with a laser that helps you hang pictures, cabinets, or shelves evenly. The laser light beam can project horizontally or vertically and even in coreners. This particular Laser Level has an 8 foot measuring tape that can lock ...

I use a lot of clear shipping tape - at least a roll a week.  One day I realized I used my last roll and did not have any back ups, so off to Target for an emergency tape run it was.  I found I had 2 choices - Scotch tape for 2.99 a roll or the Intertape 4 pack for 4.99.  Since I'm always about bottom line and it was still more per roll than I normally pay, I went with the In...

As would happen ,right in the middle of doing a wood project, my tape broke. Also it was the only one i had. Off to Lowes in search of a new tape that would serve my purpose. Came across this one, with a pull blade that locks itself, a push button retrieval, and nylon coated blade for durability.The color is bright green, which helps when  you have laid  it down or misplaced it. ...

Have you ever been writing something by hand in ink and made mistakes only to have to mark through words?  If you have you know how messy that looks. Some people use liquid paper corrections substances to cover up mistakes but that leaves the spot in the middle of the page that is hard to write on or it dries and comes off the paper. Yesterday while I was writing in ink I made some mistake...

When I need to tape up boxes or mail packages that I want to stay sealed I always turn to Henkel Consumer Adhesives Duck Tape. Their tapes are wonderful. They make packing tapes, strapping tapes, duct tape etc. Their tapes come in a variety of colors like aqua, silver and clear. I like their clear tape because labels can be seen through the tape.Another reason I like Duck Clear Packing tape is ...

Tape is probably something we all tend to take for granted, but the quality of different brands of tape does differ.  I have used other brands of tape on occasion, but Scotch brand is by far the best.  It doesn't yellow over time and does stay put.  Whenever I've used anything else (once because I was in a hurry when I was shopping and picked up the first tape I...

I like to use Scotch Storage Tape as it is a very strong tape and has always given me good results.  It is clear and is particularly good for sealing boxes.I'm sure there are many other uses for this tape as well, but the use I find it the best for is sealing those packages I intend to send through the mail or through UPS.  I don't want my boxes coming apart en ...
