  8. I would love to have a copy of "Black & Decker The Book of Home How-To: The Complete Photo Guide to Home Repair & Improvement." Our house is very old, and its previous owners never really took good care of it. It would be great to have a nice, updated book like this to use as a resource for all of our projects around the house!
