Does anyone know how many beaded pens you can get out of using the tacky tape from Hobby Lobby? There is only two sheets to a package.
If you can help me out please reply ASAP.

just a note-when you're done, coat the beaded pen with elmer's gel glue that dries clear. It dries overnight and locks the beads in place so they don't scootch around while you're using the pen. I also used Paper glaze, but Elmer's is much cheaper and gives the same results.

I highly recommend products from there. The tape sheets and microbeads are perfect for the pens.
Yes, CE would do the same. I heat my sticky tape with the heat gun before rolling in the beads, then heat with the beads on and roll on a hard surface. I haven't had any problems with the breads coming off.
To keep the glue from becoming flat, first of all coat LIGHTLY with glue or Crystal Effects and smear it around gently filling cracks. Second, prop it in a pencil holder or paper cup and turn it upside down after about a half an hour ? you still get some that drips off, but it doesn't affect it. Hope this helps
terrific tacky tape
