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.

SoEasyQuilts has a video tutorial
Abbie has a tutorial
Anne over on Focus on Finishing does too.
There are lots of ideas out there for these if you have trouble picking beads and colors!

Goodness you've been a crafty lady recently! Love your fob. xx
What a great idea!
My scissor too seems to have a will of its own, sometimes!
Happy Easter all the way from Portugal

Very pretty!
So 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!!!!
Fabulous fob you created and it plays well with your scissors!
Love 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!
Fancy title! Lovely fob too.
I love to make beaded fobs! Really cute!
