Description:

Have you always wanted to add a little personalization to your scissors? Perhaps distinguish your "good scissors" from the bad?
Look no further than this small and simple swap!
In this swap we will be making 1 scissor/snips tassel charm for 1 partner.

Using the tutorials below make your partner a tassel charm they will adore. The tassel should be at least 1 in/2.5 cm in length, but no larger than 2 in/5 cm so it doesn't get too unwieldy. I have also included an additional tutorial for the twisted cord since the directions on the tassel tutorial is sparse.
If you are unable to make a twisted cord, substitute a similar material such as pearl cotton or a sturdy high twist yarn.

To make the charm a bit more interesting add a bead or charm or two to take it to the next level.

Swap Requirements:

  • You will make 1 scissor tassel charm for 1 partner
  • Make the tassel in accordance to the above directions
  • Make a coordinating cord for the tassel or substitute with an acceptable cord as directed above
  • Add at least 1 bead or charm to the tassel
  • In the comment section below mention 3 color options for your partner to make the charm
  • This is an international swap. If you are joining the swap I ask that you make sure your country is able to send and receive mail. I will double check addresses to make sure that there are no countries that cannot receive mail before assigning partners.

If you have any questions please drop them in the comment section below or send me a PM via SB.

Happy making!

What a great idea for a swap! I have a little stuffed bear on my embroidery scissors and ribbon on my big scissors to identify them as "good." I also own about twenty pairs of scissors, so it's really helpful to know which ones are not for cutting glued paper. Cute! Thanks!

I like the colors- Black, purple, and magenta/hot pink. My scissors have these colors!
