This was so helpful. I was actually on Amazon Prime getting ready to order another one ( I already have 2) and I decided to research how I can reuse the ones I have. I fell in love with this pick me up tool and now I can have it longer. Thanks so much for your discovery and sharing it with us fellow crafters...lol
I was upset cause I had just gotten one and all the tacky stuff was coming out of the end and I thought this is going to be wasted! LOL whew. Now I feel better. Thanks for the tip.
Thank You! I would have been so mad to find out that this runs out, I just bought one today and there was no refills! So I would’ve been really mad thank you for sharing this info :)
So glad that this pick me up pen is refillable! I bought one the other day and it was very expensive so being able to refill it makes it not so expensive now!
I was going to buy some Fun Tak after watching your video. But then I remembered I have some Scotch Removable Mounting Putty. It's the same color as the original sticky material inside the Pick Me Up Stick.
Thank you so much! I've been thinking and thinking about what I could use once the sticky stuff is gone. I just filled my Pick-Me-Up with the Fun Tak I just bought from Walmart. It was $1.98 for 5 tacky bars. Yea!!!
I was just looking at my stick bought it about a year ago never really used it but I was thinking about using tac so I research it to see if anybody else did it and here is your video!
THANK YOU! I've been wanting to take a pair of pliers to my pick me up stick with the hopes of refilling it myself but I was scared I'd break it in the process. But now that I know it won't break, I can't wait to do it. Thanks again!
@@melindamccarthy4649 Yep, I've refilled it a couple dozen times now and it works exactly like it did originally. 👍 As much as I use mine, this little refil hack has saved me a fortune!
It's also fabulous, awesome for Diamond Painting, picking up the drills. . However, I was wondering how to refill this pen, I have white poster tack, and the blue tacky as well. I'm so happy. Thank you for sharing. Now I won't Break the pen. For sharing.
Donna Goggin omg! Really? Lol. Thanks so much. Sorry about the lighting, this video was made ages ago! Check out my newer videos if you enjoy watching hauls. Happy Crafting! 💖
I got a "pick me up pen" and I didn't like it so I just took the top off and picked and jabbed and pushed until I got all the putty out then filled it up with the pink glue tabs, that I have about 500 now. We'll see if it works. Fingers crossed.
OMG... i was going crazy trying to figures this dumb thing out..i twisted and twisted and nothing would come out! (I think my tack was dried out..?)....👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
mona figueroa good question, I haven’t used ALL of the original sticky tack stuff yet. I don’t see why it wouldn’t come out easy, it’s essentially a squishy material:)
