There are a few posters who I am aware of who would participate. if there are enough takers I'll give it a go

It wont be like pimpies thread, no challange, just a place to show off your achievements and an exchange of tips and ideas.

Here is one as a starter

No I'm not superstitious, i believe in lots of esoteric type things, but decided many years ago superstitions weren't something to be afraid of. That photo of the peacock feather was taken outside but it's safely back in it's inside spot now bringing me joy because they really are a beautiful thing 🙂

My mother had a pair of scissors like that. She used them for dressmaking and haircuts. They originally had green tortoiseshell patterned enamel on them but it wore off with use.

It's that really blurry thing that you thought was your glasses?

Sorry Poddster.  A macro shot would make it easier.

Looks silver,  the metal, not colour.

I"m going for a cigar cutter.   No,  a gigar cutter.   lol

I think mrytle is right.
Hairdressing scissors which have a curved piece on one of the end parts where you hold them.
My mother had scissors like that also.
