I wouldn't dare touch DH's "good" scissors!! (he does all the cutting)

Years ago my husband used my good scissors to cut wires with. Man was I ticked off. He thought he was never going to live that one down. I told him he was replacing them. He said okay. So the next time we went to Walmart, I told him he was buying me a pair of scissors to replace the ones he "ruined". So we go to the scissor isle. I saw those fiskars softtouch ones (the grey ones with the orange thing you slide to lock them) and I said awwww there they are and I put them in my cart ($15), he grabbed them and said "thats not what your scissors looked like". I said "I know, now you will think twice about using my fabric scissors now won't you at $15 a whack".
The ones he ruined were only like $2.99. LOL

I seem to have that same problem with my kitchen basters-My DH or DS's always find a use for them in the garage (ususally having to do with oil), and I have to keep replacing them. Of course, I don't KNOW they took it until I reach in the drawer to USE it!! Luckily, I have made sure there are several pairs of cheap scissors in several strategic locations, so mine are left alone!!

I would favor the new scissors approach. My DH understands. He bought a whole set of scissors, including kitchen, desks, and junk drawer. One pair he knows NOT to touch is the one from my grandmother.

Now you get to go buy her a new pair and keep the old ones for yourself :) I have told hubby to touch my quilting scissors (all 3 pairs) unless he wants to go shopping for even more expensive ones :)
