Whether you want to make prom dresses, wallets, handbags, ties, or use it for its more traditional purposes, duct tape is one of the most beloved and versatile products ever invented.

Are you looking for help with your garden or home project? Or looking to plan new projects as the rain falls?

Check out Home & Garden under Research for recommended web sites and for articles in subscription databases on gardening, home maintenance and repair. The site I'm most interested in today is CSU Extension Xeriscape Information (under Garden & Xeriscape.)
