Ancient Relics...

Ok, just for fun I had to post this pic! I was helping a friend do some organizing and came across these beauties....Are they not a hoot?? Who ever thought to use scissors with 11.75" Blades??? I guess there weren't 12" paper cutters yet... LOL!! We laughed so hard. We are thinking these must have been from the 1900's....snicker snicker snicker. They do not cut accurate, but, they look good sitting next to the ATG gun! I did my first scrapbook in 1997 for a part of a senior project. Then didn't really do any other paper crafting until Miss. Ellanor Francis was born in 2003. I've been hooked since. I hope these scissors made you laugh
too!

  3. They were in a box of scrapbooking supplies ordered off of either QVC or HSN, with pictures of a lady "using" them...the picture may have been funnier. They look like they belong to Edward Scissor Hands. :)

  4. I had some of those!! I got them in a Creative Memories kit! They were gnarly! And you're right.. not accurate at all! I got a 12in paper cutter shortly after. :) lol
