CHA Winter 2012: Westcott Scissor Mouse

Reported by Sarah Moore, Founding Editor

I must admit, I was concerned when I saw this new product from Westcott. I love their trimmers and scissors, but I have used "quick cut" tools like this before with great disappointment. Usually they catch on the paper, don't cut straight, or only work with a cutting mat. This tool, on the other hand, does NOT disappoint.

The Scissor Mouse is the size of a computer mouse. It's easy to handle and comes in 5 colors.

Cutting paper is a breeze with the Scissor Mouse! You do not need a cutting mat. The paper is grabbed by a little tab under the tool that cuts the paper.

The front of the tool has a measuring guide that is very accurate. Just line your measurement up with the edge of the paper and push straight. You can cut narrow strips with ease!

Use the Scissor Mouse to cut any lightweight papers. This would be a perfect tool for the Quiller who needs to cut multiple narrow strips. Or great for making paper beads.

What do you think?  Would this be a tool you'd like to add to your craft arsenal?
