Gentle Reader, you are probably really busy gearing up for your Snowflakes In July ballet performance right about now, right?
So I thought you might enjoy this tip for cutting fake fur:
Draw your cutting line on the back of the fabric, and then For The Love Of All That Is Holy!- slice through the fabric backing Only using a razor blade.
Do not use scissors, do Not cut through the fur. All you need to do is cut through the fabric backing.
This will majorly reduce the amount of free-floating fur in your face, hair, lungs, clothing, and life in general.
You can buy razor blades at hardware stores.
I like to put masking tape on the blade before I throw it in the trash, just to make it safer for sanitation workers.
Ok? Ok!

Good to know!
Snowflakes in June for us, actually. Great post
Nice
We literally had snowflakes in June last weekend. Well, not at my house, but 1 hour from my house. Close enough. June! Shoulda taken my ballet slippers to Canmore and danced.
Woah, dancing in the snow in June would’ve been Way Awesome. I’m just gonna go ahead and imagine that it really happened.
