To keep your scissors in excellent condition follow these tips:

• If scissors are gummed up or dirty, clean them with dish soap or rubbing alcohol and dry thoroughly.  
• When cutting wire cut the wire at the back of the blade, near the hinge, for greater leverage and to keep the tips of the blade sharper.
• If your scissors become dull, cut through tin foil to sharpen them. 
• If your scissors need additional sharpening, fabric stores have professional scissor sharpening services or can recommend a reputable company.
