My husband and I aren’t usually big on Valentine’s Day, but yesterday he gave me a present: a paper cutter. I have been wanting one for years, but didn’t feel I could justify getting one since I don’t cut paper all that often. But damn do I like a nice clean cut, and my exacto knife is getting dull.
My new paper cutter isn’t the usual kind with the big choppy guillotine blade arm; instead it has a rolling blade housed safely inside a casing. I was a little skeptical of its ability to produce as good of a result, but all test cuts have been gorgeously clean. Let the fun begin.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to chop up random pieces of paper until I think of a legitimate project to work on that requires nice clean cuts. Handmade business cards? Greeting cards with art prints on them? Hmmm…
Hi Jul! Thanks for visiting my site… I’m loving the look of yours! And speaking of love, nothing says “I love you” like an awesome paper cutter!! What a terrific valentine’s gift!!

Cutting paper is awfully romantic, isn’t it? 🙂
Concerning the Valentine’s Day gift. I have two( small and large one), and I love them. Toys like that we always deserve. Besides a clean cut is so nice.
