Evelyn Scissormouse is ready to keep your scissors safe.  A fluffly sewing room companion ready to aid your special crafting, especially before the ball! This 100% wooden scissor holder is not only functional, she's as cute as a button.  Scissors included!

Fresh from Amish country, Evelyn is machine and hand crafted using Ash and Cherry wood in Nappanee, Indiana. She has a front and a back side.. After she's born Evelyn gets a protective coat for a gentle shine.  She even SMELLS GOOD if you're into fresh cut wood. :)  She comes in a fancy bag with an adoption certificate, ready for gifting.

Evelyn measures 4 1/8 inches tall, 2 1/2 inches wide, and 2 1/2 inches deep. She sits on a square base for extra stability.  Evelyn looks best holding a pair of embroidery scissors that have a straight shaft and parallel finger holes.  The scissors I think look best are this pair of golden-handled embroidery scissors by DMC.  These are included with Evelyn, but as you can see from the picture, different styles can be used.  The familiar "stork" style scissors do not work with Evelyn due to their diagonal shape.

Unlike my scissor bird, Edgar, Evelyn comes in two separate pieces (mouse & base) that fit together.  If desired, you can use a little wood glue to permanently affix her, but she is perfectly useable within five seconds of opening her, and gluing her together is not necessary.

PLEASE NOTE: Because Evelyn is hand and machine crafted and uses real wood, each mouse is 100% unique.  The wood has two color variations as seen in the photo, every now and then both colors are present in one mouse.  The wood grain across her sides and on her base may differ from the picture shown above. Small knicks or inconsistencies may also be present. Evelyn is made out of not-perfect natural materials by not-perfect humans. The laser engraving process may also leave slight dark smudges. 

Shipping & Returns

I love getting my purchases as soon as possible, so I work quickly to do the same for my customers. I make it my goal to ship within one to two business days, although during new release times that may not be possible. I ship all my orders with USPS.  90% of orders are shipped with a tracking number which is automatically emailed to you when your package goes out.  The very few packages that are mailed without tracking are orders with one or two extremely lightweight things, like a postcard or thin pattern.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

SHIPPING UPGRADE:
I do offer rush processing with Priority mail. 

INSURANCE:
My packages are not shipped with insurance, but it can be provided for an additional fee.  Please email me before placing your order if you'd like insurance added.

ADDRESS CHANGE:
If you accidentally entered the wrong address when filling out your transaction don’t panic, it happens to the best of us. Please contact me ASAP to correct the address.

If for some reason I have already shipped your package, you will be responsible for contacting USPS and if the package gets sent back to me you will need to pay for return shipping.

OTHER NOTES ABOUT SHIPPING:
Once I drop your package off at the Post Office its delivery speed is out of Lindy Stitches' control.

I'm happy to help you locate your tracking information and assist you with the shipping process, but please keep in mind that USPS is a separate entity from Lindy Stitches. Unfortunately I do not have a secret portal for shipping information; I only have what you can see with your tracking number.

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING & VAT:

I do provide international shipping services. 

Regarding USPS custom numbers: It is normal for international packages to appear to have stopped being updated on the customs number when they leave the USA. This is due to the fact that once the package leaves the USA it gets transferred to your local postal service and is no longer scanned using USPS's technology. Do not worry if this happens to your customs number. If you are concerned about the time it is taking please contact your country's postal service for more information. Lindy Stitches cannot do this for you.

My little half-and-half Evelyn is adorable! And terribly practical, too. I'm so pleased with my purchase.

I love my Evelyn Scissor Mouse scissor holder. I have two now! I keep one at my sewing machine and one by my stitching chair. She is so cute and is very well made.

So Adorable!

Evelyn is just what I needed for my sewing table. Is it weird that I keep thinking about getting more cute snips to give her an ear refresh now and then? I love that she’s artisan made and I will enjoy her for years to come.

Scissor Holder

I was excited receiving it. I love it and the package had extra surprises too. I wrote the date on the bottom and name. She makes me smile every time I see it. Not losing scissors anymore.
