    I can remember my mom threatening to kill us if we cut paper with her sewing scissors.

    Not to use sewing scissors for anything else was one of the first sewing "rules" I was taught. Probably the only one that I have kept constantly.

    Congratulations on a creative solution David.

    Awesome solution! My family knows better but I haven't quite got the grandkids trained yet. Harder to be mad at them.

    I caught my DH about to cut electrical wire with my Gingher shears many years ago. Our 3 sons knew not to use them, but hubby didn't get the memo apparently. He said to only use scissors that he could tell were for sewing. Since then all my sewing scissors are Ginghers. Anything with plastic handles are fair game. Ü

    Suggest key on a chain around your neck. Be careful when sleeping!

    That's too funny David. My family does not mess with my scissors. They have other scissors they can use and they know I will never shut up if they use my scissors. And they can't mix up my scissors with what I gave them cause all look alot different. Example my one pair has purple handles. Anyhow, as long as they leave my scissors alone that makes me a very happy camper.
