I have them well trained in my house...and my husband bought me my Ginghers and he knows how much I value them. I also probably have about a dozen pairs of scissors so he would have to go past a lot of other scissors to get to the good ones. Even my son knows better.
|
Well, at least he knows where to start looking for replacements. Wouldn't want to be in his shoes now.
|
My husband (now ex) used my best shears to cut insulation when we were remodeling. He was shocked to find out how much a new pair cost.
|
What a hoot! My kids and spouse know not to use my good scissors. Plus, they would never know where to look as I keep them hidden away! Love the creative solutions to keeping scissors safe!

Here is how we all feel about our scissors:
a friend will calm you down when your husband has used your scissors. A quilting friend will skip beside you with an Al-Kabong pan and sing: "Someone's gonna get it!" :D |

i like the response that said if DH used her scissors she gets to buy a new pair. That guy in Joann's may have learned a lesson. Hope it's not too late LOL
I'm not a mean quilter...I just believe in justice, LOL! :thumbup: |

Maybe it's just me. I don't get all bent out of shape about things like this. My husband would never dream of trying to do the ole switcharoo on me. I would not make a big deal of it if he ruined something of mine. My relationship with him is much more important to me than a pair of scissors. When you lose everything you have in the blink of an eye, you realize that things are just "things". And when I almost lost him, I knew I'd never "sweat the small stuff" again.
but if he feels the same way, there are other scissors in life. ;) |
Great story - My DH bought me my last pair of beautiful scissors. He knows how much they were so I don't think he would dare use them!

Funny. My husband used my brand new Fiskars to cut moose hide. They were the left handed ones and he's right handed. He couldn't figure out why they hurt his hand. lol He and his buddy were making a black powder bag. I made him buy me another new pair. He has never touched my scissors again. He always asks if I have something in my sewing room and never uses ANYTHING without permission-not even MY duct tape-he has his own-if he can't find it, that's his problem! lol
Go ahead! - reap the consequences...LOL! :thumbup: This has been too funny :D :D :D |
