I {heart} stickles. I always make a mess with loose glitter & get it all over myself. I even find my cats wearing it. Stickles saves us all! At least for most projects that I want just that little touch of "bling".
Anyhow ... I like visuals, so here's the link for Stickles. they are made by Ranger.

I just bought my first one at Michaels last week, used it for the "flame" on the Eat Cake candles. It did take quite a while to dry, but when I finely got it moving out of the tube, it gave me quite a blob! LOL (I must have really been squeezin')

stickles
I have seen lots of cool cards that say they use "stickles". My local Michaels didn't know what I was talking about today when I asked them if they had them. Can someone please tell me where to buy them and do they come in different colours? Thanks.
They're glitter glue made by Ranger. I get mine at my local scrapbook store. There are also tons of online stores that sell them. They cost about $2 a bottle.
I have never seen Stickles at Michael's, AC Moore or Hobby Lobby. I have seen them at craft shows or my local stamp store has them too. They come in 10's of colors. I have about 20 different colors and I can honestly say I use them all. Love it!! You only need a little dab when you use it so it does last a long time. Good luck!

I just went to HL and bought several different glitter glues in a variety of colours and have just tried it out on some paper and I don't think it is the same as stickles. Is stickles actually the brand name???? I am confused. Any more help in this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much!:confused:

Thank you so much for your reply. I have just ordered some online and I think I might need a trip to Jo-Anns tomorrow! Hate when that happens!!
I can't wait to see the colours they have.
I went to my local Joann's and HL and NEITHER of them had them, and I know my local Michaels doesnt carry it either. I am off to Archivers tomorrow....its an hour from my house but I NEED some. LOL. Not really but I just have to have a few bottles.
I found this place yesterday at the Great American Scrapbook Convention.
They have the same great prices on their website and shipping is free over $25.00. www.scrapbookpal.com

You can't just tease me with that tid bit of knowledge and not tell the name of the store! LOL! So which store?
Stickles is basically glitter glue. They totally rock! You can find them in a wide variety of colors. You can purchase them through some of the stamp companies or at your local craft store.

Stickles are awesome and come in lots of fun colors. They are a fine, non-settling glitter glue in a small fine tipped bottle. It's really easy to add some bling to anything or make your own glittered paper by adding accents here and there. Many stores carry it as well as The Angel Company (TAC).
And before you ask "what makes it better than my kids glitter glue" I'll add that it's scrapbook safe- acid free (probably lignin free- you'd have to check the bottle, I don't have one in front of me)

Not just that but it's a different quality of glitter and glue. It dries differently and the glitter is better. I don't know exactly how to explain it so you'll just have to try some! ;)
Yes, it's one of the easiest glitter glues to use, the nozzle is sooo fine and the glitter is more compact. It means you get it where you want it, not everywhere else!!!
Newbie here. So can you cover an entire stamped area with Stickles? Is it "see through?" Or do you just go over certain parts of the image?
Some of the colors are more opaque than others. I use some of the more transparent ones over colors for a cool effect but I've used some colors to fill in images too. The black is awesome for flower centers, boots and hats and the yellow and orange are great for fire and candle flames...the possibilities are endless!
I love Stickles! I have 5 colors; want to add yellow. It just has such bling!

I get mine at my local scrapbook store they are only a couple bucks a bottle and they are worth every penny, they ROCK. Here's a link with info on Stickles and links of retail stores and online stores that sell them: http://www.rangerink.com/product_stickles
So I went on Joann.com to check them out and found Ice Stickles. How is that line different from the regular stickles?? Or is there no difference? I can see this going to be a "must have" item for me!!! Thanks for any advice~
Where do I find Stickles? I tried Michales and they didnt have any.
Thanks
TAC (The Angel Company) sells several colors of Stickles. I have also found them at local craft and stamp stores but sometimes a selection of colors is hard to find.
