Scissor fobs

Step 1: You need some type of string, wire, thread etc. to use. I chose the nylon beading thread. You need to measure the length of the scissors with the thread and then pull out double that amount and cut it off. The thread needs to be twice as long as the length of the scissors. Step 2: I liked the idea of a cap on the fob to put over the end of my scissors. You don't have to do this. This is a knitting needle cap, used to put on the end of a knitting needle. They come in different sizes…

Alrighty then. You've asked, and I'm delivering. Yesterday I made a dozen plus seven scissor leashes. Some will be used for future giveaways, some will be sold in my Etsy shop. But for now, let me show you how easy it is to make your own.... First off, you've got to go to Michaels (or AC Moore or JoAnn) and spend about $25 (if you buy everything on sale) for supplies. You are going to need crystal beads, charms, cell phone straps, eyepins and other beads. You should also have these two…

Not too far into my stitching life, I was introduced to the scissor fob, an often-decorative Something that is looped or hooked to the handles of a pair of scissors. I don’t remember how or when or why the introduction was made. But I remember being told that the scissor fob, besides being decorative, has ...

I enjoyed making these and continued making them until I ran out of supplies. Each one has one of my polymer clay beads on it. Who knows what they are? Does this closeup help you? When I got my new DOVO scissors I wanted a way to find it easily and so decided to make a scissors fob. My first attempts were not successful but I didn't give up. I am so pleased with all of these. Our Art Quilt Group had a luncheon today. I gifted one to each member. I hope you enjoy this puzzle.

I’d like to introduce you to Barb Vis. She has generously agreed to show us how she made her Scissor’s Fob or Scissor Keeper. I think you first saw it here on this post. She said she got the idea for a Scissor’s Fob when she was attending a Sew-In and people were getting their scissors mixed up. She decided to make a unique Fob so she would know which scissors were hers. After she made a couple (next picture) she decided that the women attending the Sew-In and her other sewing friends needed…
