Thread Cutterz

6/26/2015

If you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen me post a few pictures using this new tool. Today I'm sharing a bit more about it and why I love it! I'll be honest, when I first saw this pop up in my feed, my initial thought was "hmm, looks like a gimmick to me," but curiosity got the best of me, and I was lucky enough to get a chance to try one. I have a question for you at the end too; I'd love your input!

What is it?

The Thread Cutterz ring is pretty self-explanatory in its title. It's meant to be worn as a ring, to cut thread or even yarn while crafting. The blade is tucked safely away so you don't have to worry about little helpers getting poked or cut, and you don't poke yourself either (not that I've ever done that, nope, not me)! It has an adjustable strap so it can fit fingers of all sizes. It's very light and easy to use. It currently comes in black or pink, but I've seen some preview pictures of green rings on Instagram.

How I'm using it

Crafting with kids

My youngest loves to be independent, and now with the Thread Cutterz ring, he can cut his own string for crafting, and I don't have to worry about him cutting himself. Of course, his older brother thinks it's fun to use as well!

Sewing

I have a really nice (read: expensive) pair of thread snips that I hardly ever use anymore. They used to get lost on my cutting table under scraps of interfacing and fabric. Now I still use them, but only when I'm finished a project and do my final once-over to make sure there aren't any threads sticking out. My Thread Cutterz ring has become a sewing staple for me!

I'm quite surprised how much I like it. As I said earlier, I half expected it to be just a gimmick, but I honestly don't even like sewing without it anymore! It can get quite close to the fabric to cut the threads precisely, so it is really useful and easy to use. I love not having to search for my thread snips anymore!

Want to try one for yourself? You can order from www.threadcutterz.com and they ship all over the world! You can also follow Thread Cutterz on Facebook and Instagram to learn more about Thread Cutterz and stay in the loop for giveaways and new ring colours!

Feedback

What do you think of tools like this? Do you have a favourite tool? Do you like to stick to "tried and true" or are you always looking for ways to craft more efficiently? Leave me a comment, or send me an email!

Coming up...

I have plans for a free tutorial , another sew-along, and kid-friendly crafts to share with you over the summer.

Ohh that's cute. I like the idea of not loosing it, I'm forever loosing my snips too. I had them on a lanyard which was handy, but the new ones I bought don't stay shut so I was poking myself, not handy. I'll have to check this out. I think this would be great for my daughter too.

This looks like a great tool. I'm forever losing my scissors when I'm sewing. Having it on my finger would be awesome.

Yes, it is awesome! If you try it out, I'd love to hear!

This looks so cool! Even if I make a big production of putting my scissors down in a specific spot as soon as I start a project they mysteriously go missing! This would so fix that problem!

haha! I've been there!

That is so neat! I would love one to make craft time so much easier. Especially when there's 4 people and 2 scissors and lots of cutting. This would be a life saver!
