Thanks again, Tracie x
Just today I attempted to make a dangle for my glue bottle! I so appreciate this video! Thank you!
Great idea with the earring back
It was a great idea to use the earring back. Has anyone else had trouble with pins that are too large a diameter to go into the fine tip metal glue bottle tip?
Great idea and very funny.
Genius!! Thank you for sharing. :)
Very clever. TFS.
Great tutorial, thanks!
Fantastic idea...😍😍
Great idea, thank you so much.
Brilliant!!!!!
Brilliant Tracie what a fab way to make them thank you xx loved McGyver he was so clever and inventive!!!
Your earring back idea -- Genius!!
That was fantastic...great idea with the earring back.
Brilliant!! I struggle squeezing the big fat bottle to get my glue out and then it blobs all over, I couldn't figure out how you pros got such a thin easy bead of glue. One of my arms was starting to look like Popeyes!!!! I shall search for thin plastic bottles a d gift myself a topper!! Probably need to replace my thicker glue too 😏
Genius!
That earring backing tip is brilliant!!! Thanks, Ms. Tracie!
You are welcome LOL xx
Gayle Agostinelli found some really good frosting bottles with metal tips to use for her fabritac. I tried them and they really are a game changer. You can find them under her videos under gayles favorite things. Now I’m going to make some stopper toppers for them. Thanks for the tips and inspiration. Hugs; treen. 💕💕💕
Absolutely brilliant. I knew you would keep searching and thinking until you came up with exactly what you wanted. Thanks for figuring it out! Hugs 🤗🤗🤗
Hehehe, like I said it is not perfect but improving LOL xx
You’re a genius, that’s so awesome 😎, what a great 👍 idea 💡. I’ve sent for some glue bottles from Amazon, and I’m going to make some of these charms. xx Mags
Love this new idea for the pin so easy to make Thanks Tracie
Lol. You are so smart Tracie! Thanks for sharing.
so "flippin" awesome Tracie....time to make some dangles!!!!! Thanks bunches
I just picked up some stainless steel pins yesterday for this very reason. Hobby lobby sewology is 3.99 for 75 pins. Thanks for the great info
Not bad at all, I will keep looking here! Although now I have a solution, not top worried about the stainless steel :-D xx
What length are these pins? I bought 50 and they are maybe 1 inch long.
Genius!! Brilliant!! A-MAZ-ING Tracie. TFS sweetie. Toodles
Brilliant idea Tracie.
Oooh I like it. Great, easy solution. Leanne
Wonderful idea! This is so much easier. You’re the best for figuring it out and for sharing.
Genius on the fiddely malarkey! 😸🌸❤️
Ahhh - this gal from Canada thanks you Tracie !!! I wanted to make a dangle for my glue top but did not want to fiddle with all the teeny tiny little bits .. your use of the earring butterfly back in this vid gave me the thought to actually use an old dangly earring I already own ! Could not be easier and so pretty, so thank you so much for the inspiration !!!!
... I should add that I used the stainless steel pin for the glue as usual and just attached my earring by slipping it on the SS pin and slid the back up the pin to hold it on - perfect and sooooo easy !
such a great idea..I would of not thought of useing a earing back.thank you for sharing that with us.
I couldn’t get my glue to do it for me so I am very excited to try this. Have lots of back earrings laying around so I know what to do to night when my little boy a asleep 👏👏👍
That was wonderful, it is such a help when you share your knowledge with all of us. Thank you
So pretty and fun!
What a great idea. I've got loads of the butterfly backs. Need to make some now. Thanks for sharing. Xx
Cool...You go go go xxx
Great tips! TFS, Tracie!
Brilliant! Thanks for sharing!
Brilliant!!! What an awesome idea!!
This looks so easy. I’m making some as soon as I can find bottles
Well done brilliant idea Tracie xxx
Thanks huni xx
This is brilliant! So easy too.
Wonderful tutorial! Thank you!
I've been curious as how to DIY one or some of these cute topper stoppers. Thanks so much for sharing...
excellent idea Tracie..very very easy..thank you so much for the great idea.:)
Thank you Tracie .... I’ll go check out the previous video now ... ❤️🐞
Genius! Thanks for sharing!😊
You could also use a dangle earring instead of a pin. Its stainless steel.
Great idea! The only pins I found at Joann's were nickel plated steel. I'm waiting for my art glitter glue - so we'll see how they do! Next time I'll get some earring backs. TFS!
Brilliant solution. 🤗
Pure genius hun. love it.
You can buy the metal caps on line that you fit over the top of your plastic one. Art Glitter and Craft Buddy are two I ken of.
So need to tweet Phill and tell him he has an avid fan of his glue lol
Have a great evening
Hugs and love xxx
LOL, Cool :-D xx
I can get long pearl topped stainless straight pins at my fabric/ sewing store....so that is a place to investigate
Hi Tracie....thanks for the info, very informative....tfs
Great idea!
Great idea
Fantastic idea!!! Thanks for the share. I've gone through that many pins because I've misplaced them or they've gone rusty. Also I've used I small bit of acetone to clean up the metal tip. (which can be gently pulled of with pliers away from bottle) Its magic stuff acetone! 💜☺
Oh! I've also noticed keeping glue bottle topped up when you've done for the day, seems to keep the rusting away that bit longer. 😀
They sell bottles very similar to the ones you are showing on joom at not bad prices as well I get quite a bit of my crafting stuff from there it's very much the same as wish but you don't pay postage
This is so wonderful and brilliant. I did find stainless steel pins but they are short like came on my tiny bottles.
I have replaced all of my butterfly shaped ear ring backs in my jewelry to the disc shaped ones.
I also only craft with the plastic ear ring backs when the pin tips of hat pins wont fit on a smaller pin. I, like you said, to keep it out of my fingers.
I think I may have a tiny package of real tiny sterling silver ones, now I think about it. It wont tarnish but will not take up too much of the pin.
I suppose a wire would work on the top of those short pins.
After all of that, this is brilliant and will work best in my longer pins.
I wonder... would a non stainless steel sealed with a spray, stick to glue. I'll let you know.
I got my glue applicator bottles from a shop that specialises in model trains and vehicles. They're based on the Isle of Wight and have an online store as well as a bricks and mortar shop. I found them on EBay.
Great idea . xxx
Great idea, I got a thousend of those.
Genius Tracie, as I was watching ,it suddenly occurred to me that Primark are selling 8 pairs of ear studs for £1.99p I can buy the studs use the backs for the glue charm and still have 16 little gems to use in crafting, Thanks for the idea.
Perfect!
GENIUS!!! :-)
amazon has the micro mini bottles and you get 4 per pack.. the comic glimmer is more expensive than fabric tack here in the US for me. Thank you for the fantastic info.
very clever solution. see if your metal tip will screw onto the plastic tip. I found stainless steel pins on ebay but you have to wait a while to get them.
Tried it. No LOL. xx Does not work. x Good idea though xx
What a fabulous idea! You are so creative...kind of like McGyver....did you have that show in the UK too? He could make anything or fix anything out of the the simplest items....
Hehehehe this made me giggle xxx Yes we did have it. xx
Really great solution.... You could pop a small bead on before the earring 'butterfly' (they are called) just to glam it up a bit I don't know if the butterfly will hold it though.... But hey... Worth a try.. 😊😊😊
I also picked my bottles up from a stamping show from a company called Honey Bee Crafts I think.... I will see if I can find it online.... Xx
Heres a link to Honey Doo Crafts.... (not Honey Bee) the link takes you direct to them in Accessories & tools there are packs of 3 for £2.50

hmmm...stainless steel eye pins? they are super cheap and won't tarnish?? they are so very pretty, love your fix to swap them out! edit...stainless steel already suggested! =)
Hehehe, Thanks Nik, xx
Yup, you are brilliant!!! Earring backs, who knew!!!!
I do not know why I did not think of it sooner Doh xxx
Do you think an eye pin would work? Then you can attach the charms right onto it and not have to bother with the earring back.
The ones I have are too big and they rust. xx You might find one small enough x
HI TRACEY, JUST WANTED TO TELL U SOMETHING MAY BE OF USE TO YOU WHEN MAKING FAUX LEATHER. IVE MADE JOURNAL COVERS... FOUND A TIN OF BEES WAX FOR LEATHER, WATERPROOFS, SMELLS LIKE LEATHER, PRESERVES AND SOFTENS.
THORT MIGHT BE OF BENEFIT TO YOU. LOVE EVERYTHING YOU DO.
CAMILLE AUSTRALIA. 😘
You can also get the bottles from Joann's store online...
How long is the area that needs to be there with the pin, to prevent the clog?
You seem to have multiple bottles, so I wonder if you could shorten your pins to see how long your pin must be at a minimum. This will also remove the pin tip in your finger.
On some of the bottles, the nib is quite long. The pins I use are not too long they seem to be fine :-d TFW xx
Super sweetly BEEPbeepBEEPly! I've a few varying sizes of bottles for different glues & intend on making several.
With my 1st bottle set of two Glitter Glue {one small befitting an easier grasp the other for refills} +stainless steel cone shaped tip +pin w/plastic ball tip the pin STUCK pulling away from, entirely OFF the pin altogether, leaving behind a welded, rusting, useless 'improved' bottle set!
I've wanted to make these charming toppers ever since first seeing them maybe a year or more ago!
But why does the stainless steel pin rust, discolouring the glue?
Many times we cannot have anything but white or clear adhesives in our designs so the rusting is really something to watch for... & switching out pins I guess is the favoured solution to-date.
Thanks for your clever fix!
~X🌸X~
Mmmm, pins are an issue...the stainless steel ones are not supposed to rust, but I cannot find any that specify that they are stainless steel. Nightmare LOL x
I have looked and looked. Can't find stainless steel pins. Is there another name for them ? I tried quilters pins, corsage pins, even just stainless steel pins.
No neither can I x
The charms look lovely. Do you leave the pin in the glue all the time then?
Yes. It is the stopper :-D xx
Great idea! I couldn't really see the earring back, or how you attached it, it was too far away :(Do you have pics? Thanks!!!
I will try to add photos to my FB group soon hun x
@@TracieFoxCreative ohhhh thanks Tracie! I have ocd lol
@@sherieeddy6222 Just posted and tagged you sweetheart x
@@TracieFoxCreative xox such a sweetie thank you
I didn’t get the tag lol on Facebook? My name is SherieWeiserEddy on Facebook
Would it work to thinly put clear nail polish on the pin to help deter the rusting? Wondering if the nail polish on the pin would react badly with the glue. Trust me it does not take long for the pin to rust.
For the price of these, it is not worth the effort to me hun LOL. If it rusts, I will bin it xx
Great tutorial Tracie. Can you share where to buy beads in UK please? I am desperate to find a nice selection of charms, beads etc. xo
I get some charms from my local craft shop as they sell individual ones. Beads I get from Hobby Craft, they sell 2 size tubs, or jewllery I take apart from charity stores. Ali express is another place I purchase charms. Most of mine does come from second hand items I take apart though. xxx Thanks for watching Gina xxx
Thanks Tracie I appreciate it ! xo
I buy mine from Beads Direct. Inexpensive, great range and prompt dispatch. They also stock charms, chains, jewellery findings and Swarovski crystals.
Thank you Jan! I will have a look, still a little nervous driving here lol so online is great xo
@@TheFireFlyStudio67Beads Unlimited are pretty reasonable too. They are online.... I can give you a few others if you are interested.....
question. Does anyone know if moving the beacons 3 in 1 glue across to these little bottles will work well? Thanks!
When I asked in my previous video I had a real mixed response but I am going to try it now I have extra bottles :-D xx Some said it worked great, some said it was pants! LOL xx
Hi Tracie!! thanks for the reply - I tend to use a lot of beacon 3 in 1 hence my question!! I suspect it might depend on the bottle. 3 in 1 is quite gloopy, thicker than the average white PVC glue I think. I've got a dangle which I LOVE, but it doesn't work well in the beacon bottle. I'm reluctant to stomp up for the metal tipped bottles if I'm not going to use them! Will be keen to know your experience - thanks!!
Its filled :-D Will show in a future video so I can share how it works. I have stuck something with it to fill the tip with glue. I am wondering if it will glue the pin in place LOL
eek!! i would think that's quite possible, unfortunately! fingers crossed it won't though! Thank you, Tracie!
LOL, It is not stuck so far LOL
Genius!
