I'm up past my bedtime to bring you today's craft. It was supposed to be something entirely different but there is no way I would have had time on this crazy day!I may have stretched the definition of a needlework tool, but I would argue that the best way for me to find my scissors--which have a tendency to locate themselves somewhere between the end table, the arm of the couch, my lap, and between the couch cushion--is to have something on them that nearly doubles their size.

Happy Easter all the way from Portugal

Very pretty!
ReplyDeleteSo far I only have two places my scissors might be at any given time - in a project bag, or on the table by my stitching chair. I have no luck staying organized, though, so it's only a matter of time until I start losing them and need fobs....
This is so pretty, thanks for sharing all the links. I love "Scissor Location System" GREAT!!!!
ReplyDeleteFabulous fob you created and it plays well with your scissors!
ReplyDeleteLove your fob and I'd be lost without mine. My scissors definitely have a wandering soul - sometimes with a smidgen of help from the felines!
ReplyDeleteFancy title! Lovely fob too.
ReplyDeleteI love to make beaded fobs! Really cute!
