The best of both worlds, this cute little crafty helper is pretty and useful. A juicy strawberry that looks good enough to eat, which can be attached to your scissors to help them stop going astray. Also doubles up as a very handy little needle keeper, so you’ll have all you need at the tip of your fingers…
