Caught My Husband Cutting With my Sewing Scissors!
 
Hubby put some shelves up in my sewing room earlier today. He helped me put a small storage shelf together for FQs and charm packs. We had the box from the shelf after we put it together. I turned around and saw him cutting the cardboard box with my scissors! And the scissors are specifically marked "sewing only"! I just about freaked, and tried to nicely suggest another pair of scissors he could use. He must have known he was wrong because he didn't say a word and normally he would!

You can get divorce papers online a lot cheaper than an attorney!!!!!!! OMG --- I'm not sure what I'd do if I caught my husband doing that!!! Maybe make him buy me a REALLY expensive pair of scissors!!!! LOL

My husband has received explicit instructions about my sewing scissors! :shock:

My hubby used mine to cut fiberglass insulation...I made him buy me a new pair.

I feel your pain. They weren't used for anything but fabric, but my daughter dropped them on the kitchen floor and put a small chip in the blade. :(

My son used my dressmaker scissors to cut his model plane pieces apart and then used them to take screw out of some something he working on and broke about 1/4" off the point. This happened about 15 years ago. It took me awhile before I could call him anything but "that boy". :shock:

My DH was well trained before I got him. He knows sewing scissors are not to touch anything other than fabric! Never have those issues. Other issues...won't even start!

That requires some apology in the form of a more expensive pair of scissors that'll teach him

Mine had to buy me a new pair of Gingher's since he decided to ruin mine....He was lucky I didn't string him up by his thumbs.

I had mentioned in another similar thread that mine used my fabric scissors to cut the grips off his golf clubs.
