This Halloween, Arrow Tool Group is helping DIYers turn ordinary homes and backyards into frightfully fun spaces with the launch of its “Light the Fright” Halloween Giveaway, featuring DIY expert and Arrow partner Serena Appiah of Thrift Diving.
The campaign celebrates one of the best parts of Halloween, transforming your home with lights, decorations and a little DIY creativity…while demonstrating how the versatile Arrow® T301 Multi-Tacker Staple Gun can make decorating easier. Appiah recently put the T301 to work while creating her own backyard “SpookEasy Lounge,” using the multi-tacker to hang Halloween lights and add the finishing touches to her spooky outdoor retreat.
“Halloween is one of those holidays where you can really let your creativity take over, and my backyard SpookEasy Lounge gave me the perfect excuse to do just that,” said Serena Appiah, founder of Thrift Diving. “The Arrow T301 made hanging my Halloween lights so easy. I love having one tool that I can reach for again and again, whether I’m decorating, crafting, working on upholstery or tackling projects around the house. It’s exactly the kind of versatile tool that makes DIY more approachable and more fun.”
One Tool. Plenty of Halloween Possibilities.
The Arrow T301 Multi-Tacker Staple Gun is designed to handle three different fastening applications in a single tool. It accepts T50® heavy-duty staples, JT21® light-duty staples and T25™ round-crown staples, giving DIYers the flexibility to move from household repairs and crafts to decorating and cable-fastening projects without changing tools.
For seasonal decorating, the T301’s ability to use T25 round-crown staples makes it particularly useful for securely fastening string lights and other low-voltage wire without crushing or damaging the wire when used properly. That versatility means the T301 can stay in the toolbox long after Halloween. DIYers can use it for projects ranging from upholstery, crafts and home décor to seasonal displays and hanging outdoor lights for Halloween, the holidays and other special occasions.
“At Arrow, we want to give consumers tools that help turn their ideas into something they can actually create,” said Chee Min Hong, Vice President, Product Management, eCommerce & Brand Marketing, Arrow Tool Group. “Serena’s SpookEasy Lounge is a great example of how something as simple as outdoor lighting can completely transform a space. The T301 is especially useful because of its versatility, since one tool can accommodate multiple staple types, including round-crown staples for hanging lights and securing low-voltage wire. With Light the Fright, we hope to inspire people to have some fun, get creative and make their Halloween decorating even better this year.”
To celebrate the Halloween season, Arrow Tool Group will select 3 winners, each of whom will receive:
- One $250 American Express gift card
- One Arrow T301 Light Hanging Kit
The approximate retail value of each prize package is $300.
