Hello Everyone,

This is going to sound a bit weird, but you can stop scissors
from sticking by using coffee grounds. Unused coffee grounds
act as a natural abrasive that scrapes off any residue that
has built up. Put on a pair of gardening gloves so you don't
cut yourself, then work the grounds into the scissor blades,
paying extra attention to where they join together. When
you're done wash your scissors with soap and water, dry and
they'll be just as good as new.
