The 10 best Handyman tips for every female home-owner.
Asked if a woman can also be a handyman (woman) around the house, Mr Anthony Esmeraldo from Ant Projects, replied that there is absolutely no reason why a woman can’t fill this role if she is willing to commit her time and some money. “Because I am the owner of a handyman business, people send me all sorts of handyman stuff. A friend recently shared these tips with me which made me laugh and I would like to share it with you because life is too short, and we have to have some fun along the way”.
- If you cannot find a screwdriver for the job, use a knife. Should you break off the tip, it’s an improved screwdriver.
- Try to work on your own – an audience isn’t really of any help.
- If what you have done seems stupid, but it works, it is not stupid anymore.
- Work in the kitchen whenever possible… you will find many fine tools there, it’s warm and dry, and best of all – you are close to the refrigerator.
- If it’s electronic, buy a new one… or consult with a twelve-year-old.
- Be simple minded – replace the bulb or fuse, get a new battery, see if the tank is empty, try to turn the switch or just paint over it.
- Always take the credit for miracles. If you drop the alarm clock while taking it apart and it suddenly starts to work, you have healed it.
- Regardless of what other people have to say, kicking, throwing and pounding sometimes DOES help.
- If something looks lever to you, it is level… except when it’s a window or a door that needs to open or close.
- And finally, if you do not succeed, simply redefine success.
