I saw this hack online. It’s a glue gun holder. All materials except the silicone potholder are from Dollar Tree.
I zip-tied the bottom centers of two napkin holders together.Then, I zip-tied the upper middles together. Zip ties should have the “toothy“ side to the inside.I cut the excess tie ends off.I flopped the pot holder over the center.I’ll use the glass candle base as a trivet.I placed the glue gun and some glue sticks in the holder. It looks like a baby beluga whale in a carriage.
It’s functional, but I think a larger oven mitt would work better. This is the largest I’ve found, so far.
Maybe I’ll save it for a mini glue gun! (I won’t use it on the bed!)
In our little community, if you want craft supplies, you have three options:
1) Dollar Tree
2) Walmart
3) order online
Otherwise, you have to travel a minimum of 30 miles.
Dollar Tree won today because it involved the least amount of walking. They also had the main thing I was after. (I checked online. Their search engine is a nightmare, by the way.)
I’m working on a collage for a challenge that ends tomorrow. I am not happy with the substrate I chose, so I headed out to buy the 12×12” plywood unfinished signs, complete with hanger. I bought 3, because hey, there are monthly challenges. (Look in the back of the box of round ones, if you go.)
I found other options, too! There were 12×16” stapled canvases and bamboo cutting boards in two sizes!
I found a new glue gun and glue sticks. (Where do they hide?) I bought a glass candle plate for it to rest on.
As you can see, I found lots of products with craft uses. Maybe I’ll explain them all someday. In the meantime, happy crafting to you and me! -K❤️
