1. I like using these for school projects, scrapbooking, and most other paper projects. Sticky, not wet, so you don’t have to worry about bleed-thru, even on regular notebook paper. They’re so economical that you barely notice when one goes missing. This was advertised as a pack of 6, but I was lucky to get a bonus pack with 2 extra! They are non-toxic and washable which make them great for younger children.

2. I like the small size because it’s easy for me to tape my envelopes without getting glue all over everyting. I would order again. I still say the shipping and handling with Amazon is my only problem.

3. This glue stick works better than any other glue stick I’ve tried. It can get a bit messy and runs out pretty fast, but they are secondary concerns. It does its primary job very well, which is to stick stuff to other stuff.

   I’ve also used the purple version of this glue stick and they seem to do about the same job.

4. I use these glue sticks myself and always have quite a number of them around for various needs and projects. My use of them is not what makes this product so great though. I have a slew of nieces and nephews that constantly invade my homes and as I am the single sister (translate that to “free child care specialist”) I have been appointed the adult (that is a laugh) to house break the little critters.

   I found out very quickly that nothing made my sisters, and sister-in-laws madder than to send their precious little urchins home to them with glue, dirt, grime and “stuff” all over their pretentious little designer clothing. I was constantly in trouble I can tell you! Well, I solved one of my many problems in this area by purchasing these nifty little glue sticks.

   I always have projects ready for the little twerps when they show up; many of which require a lot of cutting, drawing and pasting. I was forever desperately washing clothing trying to remove glue stains and the like before the cubs were picked up by their fussy, neuortic and uptight parents. With these sticks this has cut a lot of that out. They are neat to use and when the little ones do get it all over the place, it is easy to wash out of their clothing and off of my table tops and off their grubby little (although I must admit…cute) hands. It, by the way, incase you are wondering, is easy to wash from dog fur when the little ones decide to decorate their four legged friends with cutout pictures, ribbons, etc.

   Since I have noted that children like to use waaaay too much glue on their projects, these sticks are even more useful as they force the child to use less and be a bit neater in what they are doing. The last project we did was mounting dried leaves we had collected this summer and pressed. It was delicate work as the leaves were quite fragile and the kids did a wonderful job on them when they mounted them to the paper they prepared and then mounted the paper to the cardboard backing.

   Good product and I highly recommend it.
