Alrighty then. You've asked, and I'm delivering. Yesterday I made a dozen plus seven scissor leashes. Some will be used for future giveaways, some will be sold in my Etsy shop. But for now, let me show you how easy it is to make your own.... First off, you've got to go to Michaels (or AC Moore or JoAnn) and spend about $25 (if you buy everything on sale) for supplies. You are going to need crystal beads, charms, cell phone straps, eyepins and other beads. You should also have these two tools. One is a wire cutter, the other small round nose jewelers pliers. You can buy both of these at your local craft shop if you don't already have them. You can get away with not having the wire cutters and use scissors, but DO NOT use your sewing scissors that you'll be blinging out. And you can also use needlenose pliers or flat head tweezers, but having the jewelers pliers will make your work much easier. Using your pliers, gently open the loop at the end of the eyepin. Slip on a charm And gently close the loop, once the charm is on, using your pliers. I'm a mass production kind of gal, so I like to do all of one step at a time, so I hooked up all of my charms before I moved on to the blinging. I like to start with a small bead at the bottom. I've then strung a crystal and another small bead.... Then I added a focal point bead and followed that up with a repeat of what I had strung on the eyepin to start. Notice there's a big old piece of wire left art the top. The next thing you are going to do is turn this into a loop, so unless you want a huge loop, this is the time to cut off a smidge of that extra wire. Making a loop is easy, just clamp on to the tip of the wire with your pliers and wrap it into a circle. Again, this isn't industrial wire, so be gentle, or you'll find yourself breaking that wire you grabbed off and you'll need to start over (not to worry, there's lots of eyepins in a package). Now we need our 'leash'. These are cell phone straps found in the jewelry findings aisle at Michaels. I couldn't find them at JoAnn, so stick to a craft store or bead outlet when looking for these. Use your pliers to open the ring at the end of the leash just enough to slip over the loop of the eyepin you just made. Notice that I open my loop by just pulling one end of the loop to the front. I didn't pull the ends apart, I just sort of pushed one side back and one side forward. Doing this makes it easier to close. Because then all you have to do is give it a gentle squeeze to align the the ring. If you pull apart the ring, you need a flat plier to squeeze the two ends touching together, and you'll likely squeeze your ring out of it's circular shape. This way, your ring stays circular. Wah-lah! You've now got scissor bling. Loop the leash around your scissor Give it a little tug to pull it taut and secure And now your scissors are definitely identifiable as your own, no matter where they go. (And I like to think they stay sharp longer and cut effortlessly because they are oh so proud and happy to be blinged out :-) ) Oh, and don't forget to bling out your rotary cutters as well. Heck, bling out your plastic rulers. We wouldn't want any of our tools to feel left out now, would we? Go make bling, and check back later tonight or tomorrow for my Bloggers Quilt Festival entry.

Hi everyone, I know it's been a while, but at least I have a nice cross stitched scissor fob tutorial for you! In this tutorial I show you how to stitch this halloween scissor fob with beads attached. I initially forgot to take photo's showing how to attach the tassel but I have since found the Christmas Scissor fob photos that show more detail of how to do this, I will put them in the next post and I will also be doing a tutorial showing how to make the tassel and the cord soon. There are a lot of photographs in this post. I actually took these photographs in November 2011 but forgot to put them on this blog! You can see detailed pictures of my scissor fobs on my cross stitch blog here details of the pattern can also be found on that post. You will need: Your finished stitched piece DMC Thread Mill Hill Beads Iron on Interfacing Polyester filling Scissors and a needle Instructions below: The interfacing is lightweight, I should really have used black but it does not show anyway. As you get to each corner trim the fabric across the top to remove bulk I do not trim this at the start of the project as the fabric may fray too much, I did learn from this the last time I made one! Leave a space for your hanging cord and then put your needle through the cord a couple of times to attach it, then stitch as close to the cord as much as possible on the other side, ensuring you match the stitch lines to each other up to the corner. Once you have missed the stitch, you then place the needle into the next stitch, this is the time to place the next bead onto the needle. Leave a small gap to fill your scissor fob with fibrefill and then carry on stitching until you get to the last stitch, when you arrive at the last stitch just finish off by pushing your needle into the pillow close to the edge, go in and out of the pillow, ensuring no stitches show. Cut the thread close to the fabric and it should be hidden inside the pillow. As a beginner you may prefer to use matching black thread, I chose to stitch it in orange as a design feature. You have now attached the cord in the middle, you can do exactly the same with the cord tassel or you can attach a small piece of wire through the tassel and hook it over the stitches at the bottom so that it hangs freely, I did this on the White Cat Scissor fob below. I made the cord and the tassel using the same DMC stranded cotton thread that I used for the cross stitching. It should now look like this: You can see a Christmas Cat scissor fob on my blog here just scroll to the bottom of the page, there are also free cross stitch patterns on my blog. Edited - more pictures below I would love to see your finished scissor fobs if you use my patterns and these instructions, just send me a photo and I will post the pictures on my blog! Happy Stitching!
Ever wondered what a scissor fob was? What they were even used for? Just want to learn to make your own scissor fob? This one's for you.
This beautiful needlework set is handcrafted by My Big Toe Designs. It is created with quality beads that includes Czech glass and Swarovski crystals. Each coordinated piece draws from the pink, green, and white flower cabochon, which is sure to bring a smile each time you reach for your threads. The thread keep and mini scissor fob have an adorable playful cat metal charm accent. Items included in this set are: Thread Keep ~ aka thread ring or thread keeper ~ an easy way to add some jingle and sparkle to your threads. The beaded slide comes on a 1.25" binder ring and will fit other sizes. Mini Scissor Fob ~ you need to add a little dazzle on your Dovo, or a little glam to your Gingher. From the practical side of things, if you drop your scissors the weight of the fob would likely pull your finger holes to the ground first, thus protecting the tip. So, this is a totally practical purchase (and it's pretty!). That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Note: Scissors and thread are for display purposes only. They are not included in the purchase. Another note: Charm shown not your favorite? Just ask and we can find you the perfect pendant to suit your personality.

I looked through my stash and came up with 3 cat theme designs. I made them into scissors fobs. It took me a few evenings to finish the stitching and the finish work. I think they are perfect for the new Cat Scissors: The second scissors fob is stitching one over one thread. http://www.anitalittlestitches.com/scissors.html
Today is a special day because we are going to learn how to make a quick and pretty scissors fob! Get on board :) The birth of this cute little pansy was totally unexpected and not even planned. I just found out a couple of days ago that there is a scissors fob' day on August 21-st so I wanted to participate in the flashmob even though I've never really made these charms before. Usually, scissor fobs represent square pillows which you can also use for needles. But since my head is full of other things and realistically I knew I wouldn't be able to start and finish any “responsible” project in this period of time, I decided to opt for something simpler and quicker. This is how this pansy was born :) By the way, if you've already read and tried this tutorial for en embroidered brooch, making the fob will be a piece of cake for you :) Scissors fob tutorial What you need: -Felt -Thread and needle for embroidery -Scissors for embroidery (manicure scissors in case you will need to cut out small details) -Thread and beads for the pendant and cord (+bead needle) Here is the pattern of my pansy. I decided to post it as an image rather than PDF so that you can scale it the way you want. So, first, you need to transfer the pattern to the felt you're using. Outline each of the petals in split stitch. I used a rhinestone for my pansy because I wanted it to shine a bit, haha. But it is optional, of course. Moreover, if you plan on using beads or rhinestones, I would recommend using it in the end after you're done with thread stitching. It kind of stands in the way otherwise! I just wanted to see whether a rhinestone will fit here so I stitched it down and then just left it be there, haha. Don't be like me :) Aaand stitched! Sorry, I got a bit too absorbed in working it, so I didn't take the step by step pictures. But maybe that's for the better because you can color it as you want :) And if you want the same as mine, then here: DMC Ecru + 775 + 800 for the two upper petals DMC 598 + 597 + 676 for the side petals DMC 519 + 597 with occasional "strokes" of Color Variations 4215 + 676 and Ecru on two edges near the center of the petal. Now we are going to assemble the fob! For this step, you need to have a ready pendant and cord. For the cord, I used a braided floss. And for the pendant, you can use your beads, charms, or make a tassel like I did! Anything that makes you happy :) You also need a backside from the felt corresponding to the size and shape of the front side. Lay the backside first, put the free “tail” of the pendant centering it at the bottom, and then lay the stitched pansy on top of it. A kind of sandwich, yes. Now, to keep the front and back sides together, we are going to use blanket stitch edging, nowadays it is often referred to as buttonhole stitch so check out the lesson for it first. Bring the needle to the edge of the shape. (Don't forget to secure the thread before that! You can use the last method from this post: How to start thread in embroidery). Pierce the needle through both of the shapes from the front side to the back, and tuck the working end of thread behind the needle. Repeat the same steps working the edge of the pansy. When you encounter the pendant or cord, sandwiched between the two sides, just skip over them. Don't worry, they will be secured well enough! So, continue working around the edge the same way until you make a full round and come back to where you started blanket stitch. When you finish, secure the thread by piercing the shape and bringing the needle out somewhere far (also preferably not on the face side) and there trim the thread off. Your scissors fob is ready! :) This is how it's going to look from the other side. I used 3 colors corresponding to the petals, but if you don't want to start and end thread time and time again, you can use 1 color for the full edging. Also, you can definitely make your edging denser placing the stitches right beside each other. Then the felt won't be noticeable under the stitching at all.
