When we were little girls; our Grandmother gave us a pair of antique gold scissors. Our Grandmother supported our dreams. She knew we were both going to choose the path of becoming artists. We would spend hours, cutting up paper dolls and making paper dresses. As we got older; we understood the significance of a pair of scissors to a Fashion Designer. They are like paint brushes to a painter or a hammer to a carpenter. The pair of scissors is what we use to cut a piece of muslin or paper pattern, both completely flat. It is magical to direct this tool, like a magic wand and have the ability to transform something completely flat into something almost 3 dimensional; especially when worn or draped onto a dress form.
We decided to celebrate this special tool that we sometimes take for granted. We made it into a charm to be worn around the neck. The scissor is done in an antique silver finish, hung on a 26" long chain. This scissor is so significant, yet so easily forgotten. Let us wear this charm around our neck. May this pair of scissor continued to be used. Let us have fun and continue to create more beautiful things to be worn and to be adorn.
Xoxo,
