I keep my Ginghers dressmakers, pinking shears and my two embroidery shears in the orginal cases they came in, with labels on them that say...do not use... only for fabric cutting. Then I also have a flower vase in the kitchen with several pairs of scissors, including kids scissors. This way everyone knows that they can only use the scissors from the flower vase. My scissors pretty much stay out of sight so they don't really know where to find them.
