Like Nadine said, I will be in the shop on Saturday the 17th from 10 to 3.  Scissors will be $10 for one or $15 for 2.  They will be done by closing (8pm)  This is the last day for the special 2 for pricing. If you cant make it in there is the drop off and pick up also.  I can have your scissors back to you in 2 or 3 days.

Remember I am not limited to just sewing scissors.  I can sharpen nippers, embroidery snips, scrapbooking scissors and yard/kitchen shears.

Also I have my own blog now so make sure to check that in store dates and other information as well.  www.macthescissorguy.blogpsot.com.

Thanks Nadine for letting me use your shop and blog!!!

Mac, the scissor guy

Remember that Mac, the scissor guy will be in the shop this saturday from 10 to 3.  Don't limit yourself to just fabric scissors.  He can sharpen any of your craft scissors.  My paper ones cut better than when they were new now that he got ahold of them.  Also if you are taking the Wonky House class he has special pricing for you! If you can't make it this Saturday he will be back on the 17th.

 Price is $10 for one or $15 for 2.  Same day turn around so the sooner you come in the sooner they will be done.

Scissor Sharpening

Mac the Scissor guy will be back on Saturday February 18th from 10 to 3. Drop off will be from 10 to 3 and pick them up by 8pm.

When he was in the shop last time he had several comments about not being able to sharpen and fix some very "loved" scissors.  He was able to sharpen and restore all of them that came his way. His favorite line is  if you haven't cut barbed wire with them, he can probably fix them.  So if you have a pair of scissors that are very loved and have knicks, dirty, rusty, or any other issues bring them in and if he can't fix them he won't charge you.

Mac can sharpen all types of scissors.  Regular, pinking shears, batting shears, nippers...you bring it in and he will look at them and try.  He made my nippers able to cut through fabric (not just thread), my regular scissors can cut through 32 layers, and my pinking can cut 4 layers.

For same day service his prices are $10 for one pair, $15 dollars for 2 pair. If you have a specialty pair bring them in and he will quote you a price when he looks at them.  Mac only takes cash so please have some on hand with you.

Drop off and pick up...what?  I thought I better explain this better.  It takes Mac 15 minutes per scissor.  He handles this on a first come first serve basis.  So the earlier you drop them off, the sooner they will be done.  But so he isn't there all night sharpening, he will stop accepting scissors at 3.  He will have everything done and ready by 8pm.

And thank you to all who came last time he was in the shop.  Thanks for making him feel so welcome.

Scissors need sharpened?

Nothing is worse than a dull pair of sewing scissors!!  So if yours are acting kind of dull bring them into The Material Girls tomorrow Saturday Feb. 4th and get them sharpened, oiled and whatever else they may need.  The Scissor Guy will be at the shop from 10am till 3pm to sharpen all of your scissors.  I have have about 6 pair I am getting done. I  can't wait,  all the scissors at the shop need some serious help, he will have us slicing through our fabric like BUTTER!!
