12-pack clear glue sticks for paper crafts

This set contains twelve washable glue sticks weighing 22 grams each. The acid-free, non-toxic formula is safe for classroom and household use. Smooth application dries to a clear, colorless finish on paper, cardboard and foam board. A solid twist-up design helps reduce mess during projects.

Upgrade from liquid glue for mess-free work

Liquid adhesives often warp thin paper and leave sticky residue on hands or surfaces. These sticks eliminate drips and dry faster for cleaner results on posters and vision boards. The switch is worth it when speed and neatness matter more than heavy-duty bonding. Teachers and crafters gain reliable hold without the cleanup time.

Limited to porous paper-based surfaces

The adhesive is formulated for paper, cardboard, foam board and computer paper only. It will not bond plastic, metal, fabric or coated photographic prints effectively. Acid-free chemistry protects scrapbook pages but does not create a waterproof seal. Projects requiring structural strength or outdoor durability need a different adhesive type.

Questions about this item

What are the dimensions of the 12-pack box so I know if it fits in my desk drawer?

The package measures 5.25 inches long, 2.75 inches wide and 8.875 inches high.

How do I extend the adhesive from the twist-up stick without breaking it?

Turn the base gently until the glue appears just above the rim; forcing it further can snap the stick.

When should I replace a stick that has been left uncapped?

Replace it when the exposed glue feels dry or crumbly and no longer spreads smoothly on paper.
