Using oil to stop the lids from sticking is a really good tip. I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve had to use hot water and a pipe wrench to open glue I haven’t used for a while!
I love your blue nails. I wore that color back in 1974 wearing a navy and white dress, headed to an interview at The Colonial Baking Company. The receptionist, I was later told, called all the women to the window to see this girl with blue nail polish. Haha. I also wore a dark green color at times. They were beautiful. Now being an elderly baby boomer, I no longer feel comfortable wearing colors that draw attention to my arthritic, wrinkled hands. So, wear it proud, Ms Sherry wear it proud.
Great tip about the oil! And how excited am I that Reptile is back? 💃💃💃💃💃. And I love the idea to stick your pin inside the plastic little cover! Genius! Thank you! 💕🙋♀️🌴
Thanks for the share. I will get a rust proof pin for my bottles. Swag bag ! How fun, and productive for your person participating in person. I forgot to mention that’s great share too about the oil. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
😲😲😲 wow!!!!!!! I NEVER would have thought of that! And it is so hard to refill those little bottles! And the pin attached to the little cap thingy!!!! You seriously are a genius! Thank you so much for sharing this ❤️ ❤️ ❤️!!!
Wow this is an awesome method. I never thought of using oil on glue tips. I don’t have the glue bottle tips like yours and I’ve been holding off on buying them. Check this out! My husband vapes and buys the liquid juice for his vape. Those bottles have a thin tip. A few days ago he was going to throw away about 20 empty bottles and I got an idea of using them for my projects either put glue or paint. 😎
Hi Sherry!! Thanks for the tip. I also put a rubber band around the bottle to tuck that cap in while using the glue It was so annoying to me to keep trying to keep that cap out of the way
You are amazing! Thanks for taking the time to share. I have ruined a few bottles of glue by NOT using stainless steel. Anyway, I also want to mention that you have a kind soul to share tips.
Would love a swag bag from you! Perhaps you could put them for sale in your merchandise? Or at least the Posh little glue bottle with your label! Hugs and Thank You for all of your videos!
So many great tips in this video! Thank you! I’ve seen the needle tip before, but the note about stainless steel and having heads small enough to go into the cap is smart. The oil is a GAME CHANGER! Thanks for sharing!
Wow !that us the best tip I ha e ever seen, I have always wondered where they were getting the small bottles and tips to craft. It will n make crafting so much easier. Thank you so much. Also thanks you for the dollar store info.❤
Tks for the pin tip in glue. Now to find stainless steel pins. :) Thank you for the words you say on every uTube. Jesus shines through you and your encouraging words.
Isn't it funny the new uses we find for tools and supplies we work with every day??!!! I've been a digital/graphic artist from back when we worked on "the boards", and since have grown into a technical/conceptual illustrator. I have learned so much from your videos!! The tools and techniques have changed so much over 40 years!!! You are a great teacher!! Keep up the great work!!
Your sister was correct! I actually have those bottles but never use them. They will be coming out of hiding today. Glue bottles are a big deal....we fight them every time we craft!
Hi Sherry, I use the small glue bottle but it doesn't have the little plastic holder. I wrap a rubber band around the bottle and slide the pin in while I use the glue. Love the tip on using oil around the caps. Thanks!
I also use a pin in my little glue bottles. When the original pin broke, I replaced it with one of my rust-proof pins from my knit & crotchet supplies. It was a perfect fit. I didn't even think that this would mean the pins were stainless steel but that totally makes sense as they are rust-proof. Thanks for mentioning that!
Real Game-Changer tips for crafters around the globe. Credit to sister Denise’s suggestion, and big thanks to Sherry, for the follow through! 👏 👏 “Oils are good for our bodies, and for glue-necks too!” 😊 Take care. Blessings 💙
What a lot of great idea. Knew about the stainless steel pins. I have the small glue bottle but it did get clod. Like the idea about the oil. You’re amazing.
Oh my stars and garters! This is a fantastic tip!!! I use those small bottles, and I have some stainless steel pins...they are going to be put together today. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us all! I hope you have a lovely weekend. Take good care.
That is a great tip thank you and I found that if you wrap a rubber band round the bottle your pin can hook in the band and it keeps it out of the way xx
I highly recommend the small glue bottles. You won’t be disappointed. I don’t use a pin to keep mine from clogging, I use the cover that comes with the bottles. I do know some pins made leave a rust-like residue in the glue.
