The very day I saw my formerly beloved DS digging for fishing worms in packed dirt with MY SEWING scissors was the last time I left them out. After that they lived in a locked file drawer when I wasn't around to protect them. And DS got his ears verbally pinned back!!

What a great idea, but I fear I would misplace the key as well!

This post is a God-Send! My husband and I share space. I quilt on one side, he computers (very nearby) on the other side. I love this idea! I've already set the "Don't Touch" law down, but the "criminal activity" continues! I've seen Pink locks at Tuesday Morning, and now, I must have two of them. As for the keys? Well, I've got a black magnetic key hider box, and when I attach it to the inside top of my black metal fabric locker, it disappears!!! Ha Ha...no more theft in my Kingdom!

I learned growing up that Mom's stuff was always off limits (including her sewing stuff) but she also put them away when she left a project for the evening. (Protection from Dad using them?)
I have several pairs of "other" scissors all over the place; Kitchen drawer, office desk, garage,making them easy to find.
I use my sewing scissors and put them back in the sewing basket, under the drawer where they are very hard to find.

To touch Mom's scissors would have been the monumental sin when my kids were growing up!

love this - my bf has a very nice pair of kitchen formerly known as sewing scissors now! He learned quickly not to touch!

That is great. My husband, children and grandchildren know, "Don't mess with Mimi's scissors or kitchen knives!"
