Let’s get started!

What is a Glue Stick?

Before we start sticking things together, let’s discuss what exactly a glue stick is. A glue stick is a twistable tube filled with glue that helps you to stick papers, pictures, and fun things together. It is clean, easy to use, and perfect for little hands. 

Step 1: Grab Your Glue Stick

Glue sticks come in fun colors and different designs and are easy to hold. Grab your glue stick, Twist it up slowly but not too high. Now, you are ready to start.  

Step 2: Apply Glue to Paper or Craft Project

Gently press the gluestick against the surface of your paper or craft project. Use short, light strokes to spread the glue evenly over the area where you want to stick something. Be careful not to press too hard. 

If you are sticking two pieces of paper together, make sure to only apply a thin coat of glue, and only cover the area where the papers will touch. This way, the glue will hold them together without making a mess. Keep it light and neat. 

Step 3: Stick Your Items Together

This is the most exciting part. Now that you have to put glue on your paper, it’s time to stick your favorite decorations or pictures. It could be colorful glitter, stickers, shapes, or little cut-out drawings. Gently press the objects onto the glued surface. Your artwork is starting to take shape.

Step 4: Let It Dry

Remember, glue sticks work their best when they dry. So, after sticking everything in place, leave your project to dry for a few minutes. This will make sure everything stays in place, and your artwork will be ready to show off. You will notice the glue turning clear as it dries just like magic.  

Step 5: Keep Your Glue Stick Clean

To keep your glue stick working well and lasting longer, make sure to twist it back down after you are done using it. This helps prevent the glue from drying out or getting messy. Also, do not forget to put the lid on when you are not using it to keep everything clean.
