Christmas Shopping at a Tool Store

21 Nov 2019 Building Supply

If you have a friend or family member who is involved in trades or loves doing DIY projects, Christmas shopping at a tool store can prove to be quite rewarding. There are many great gifts to be found at a tool or hardware store and the recipient of your gift is sure to be excited to put their new tool to good use. At Country Lumber, we provide tools and hardware throughout the Fraser Valley and we can help you to find the perfect Christmas gift for your hard-working loved ones.

Great Gift Ideas from a Tool Store

With the holiday season fast approaching, there is no better time to get started on planning your gifts out than the present. In order to get a good handle on what to buy your friend or family member, it is important to know what they already have and what they might need. Try to open up a conversation about what tools they have already and what is working or not working and listen to their needs and frustrations. When you arrive at the tool store, talk to one of the knowledgeable staff to ensure that you buy the right gift. Some great holiday gift ideas could include:

Power Tools

Power tools are an excellent go-to gift, if you have the budget for them. Your loved one is sure to get plenty of use out of the tool and be excited to use it. If you are buying a cordless tool as a gift, make sure that you buy something that fits with the brand they already have so that the batteries and other accessories carry over.

Hand Tools

If your budget does not allow for power tools as a gift, there are many hand tools that are extremely exciting. Whether it is an interchangeable screwdriver, a beautiful new hammer, or a full ratchet set, hand tools are always a winning gift.

Woodworking Tools and Supplies

If your loved one is a woodworker, you are in luck because there is an endless supply of gift ideas available to you. A new chisel set, lathing tools, sanding tools, and sawblades are just a couple of examples of gifts that are sure to get them excited to open their Christmas gift.

Tool Belts, Carriers, and Storage

Every good handyperson needs a solid tool carrying and storage system. Tool boxes and organizers can help to keep your closets and garage organized and give a boost to productivity, while a good tool belt can greatly improve the actual job experience.
