Thanks for sharing your space and ideas...hmmm got me thinking...Suebee that is a great idea using a smokers stand...will be on the lookout for one. I really need a spot for my scissors - I keep dropping them and I worry about my "Inspectors" being impaled.

My dad smoked a pipe...and had one of those...sure would love to have one too...he quit smoking his pipe years ago...but I still love that smell...that is how he would relax at the end of a work day.

What a great idea about the pipe stand!! My MIL has one that is quite large but I have a desktop one that will hold 6 pair of scissors. I am going to get it out!!
