Abbott Tuesday - Clever Wall Hooks

I know it isn't even Mother's Day yet and that's where your focus is right now.  Over the years, retailers have consistently told me that it's the second biggest gift-giving occasion for their business (after Christmas, of course).  Stay focused on it, but don't forget to plan your assortment of gift ideas for Father's Day.

If you don't already have a dedicated area for men's gifts, you will want to create one - even if it's temporary - and transition to it after Mother's Day.

Why am I talking about Father's Day when it's supposed to be Abbott Tuesday?  Because among Abbott's unique product offerings is an assortment of wall hooks that are ideal for your customers who want to show Dad how much they value him. 

The Hammer Triple Wall Hook (pictured above) and the Wrench Triple Wall Hook (pictured below) are witty yet functional items that will liven up a garden shed, Dad's workshop, the tool shed and even the garage.  Your customer can be sure that each one will bring a smile to Dad's face and remind him of their thoughtfulness each time he uses them.

Each wall hook measures 10.5" at the longest, making them easy to incorporate into any area even when space is at a premium.  They are made of cast iron so they are sturdy and built to last.  These will become the heirlooms that dads hand down to sons and grandsons.
