A hint for storing glitter, we did this years ago and still use it, is to store it in a small jar, bottle and place a piece of paper with holes poked in it over the top and replace the lid. This makes it so you can sprinkle your glitter and return it easily into the bottle.

Great idea. I love paper piecing.inchies and have some intricate dies Finding a fine tip applicator that doesn't clog has been frustrating. The piece of damp sponge in the lid is clever as is cleaning off the tip before storing. We have elmers glue here in Australia and l wondered what the difference was between the ones on offer. Thank you for explaining that for us. I'm adding the correction pens to shopping list for this week. When l watch your new videos l know l'm going to enjoy the content and learn a thing or two.

I don't mean this as a criticism but here in the UK you can pick up fine tipped glue pens for £1 to £2. This would be a more expensive buy as that thinners isn't cheap if you don't have any already.

Hello Angie :) Thank you for the information :) I was requested to figure out a way to make a glue pen, and this is what I came up with :) The one thing is, that these will be refillable and can be used forever, so once you invest in the thinner you will not have to do it again :) I am not sure how expensive the pens are here, but the last time I looked they were about $5.00 each :) I do appreciate your comment :) tfw, and I hope you have an Outstanding Day :) amy

Thank you for the video!!! I have done a ballpoint pen with using tacky glue that dries to transparent color. I used it for foiling purposes. However it ended up drying. I will try this and update but i have a request if you dont mind. Could you give some ideas how to fill a ballpoint pen with that kind of glue -especially used in foiling- that wont dry up? I hope i could say what i wanted :)
@queengoben1018

One more thing is i think you can use nail polish removed for removing the correcting fluid. Alcohol also helped with me to clean the ballpoint pen inside. And i mixed tacky glue with some glycerin and alcohol to prevent drying up but then it ended up not being sticky anymore. So now i am just filling the ballpoint pen and using it but it dries withing a week or so :( i will be glad if you could recommend something:)

Hello Queen :) Thank you for the sweet comment :) I do not have a way to fill a ball point pen, but these work just like a ball point pen and they seal when you are not using them so they don't dry up :) Stay Safe :) tfw, and I hope you have an Outstanding Day :) amy

al john ah thank you for your reply!!!! I tried this and it worked better and you were right how to clean the correcting liquid because nail polish remover made it worse :) i just wanted to draw thinner strokes with a ballpoint pen. But it dried up everyway :) i now use these bottles of correcting pens and squeeze it on a scrapbook paper and use my empty ballpoint pen as a fountain pen and dip it into the tacky glue and use it where i want. I am creating my own stickers and the details are foiled. Thank you for your videos :) i am watching all of them day by day :) great ideas 💡

Liquid soy lecithin is an emulsifier. I use it to made "butter spread." I mix butter, olive or grapeseed oil, and water. The liquid soy lecithin mixes the water and oil. I don't mean to insult your intelligence by explaining what an emulsifier is.. Do you think you might be able to go directly to dish soap water with soy lecithin and skip the other step? I'm just curious if I could not have to buy that other product that was probably a buy way behind my schedule.
