Glue Gun COLOR STICKS 5/16 x 4" 12 PK

Elevate your craft projects with this 12-pack of colored hot glue sticks. Each stick measures 5/16" in diameter and 4" long, precisely sized to fit standard hot glue guns that accept this diameter. The assorted colors give you immediate visual feedback on seams, positioning, and repairs, making projects cleaner, faster, and more fun from start to finish.

Why color sticks make a difference

• Assorted colors for visual organization—use different hues to code parts, track glue lines, or highlight collaboration notes on classroom or workshop projects.
• Ideal 4" length—long enough to cover larger seams and quick enough to swap colors between stages, reducing reloads during longer sessions.
• Precise 5/16" diameter—designed for compatibility with hot glue guns that accept this standard size, ensuring smooth feeding and consistent flow.
• Versatile bonding for common craft substrates—great for lightweight materials like paper, fabric, foam, wood, plastic, and DIY décor projects where a visible, colorful adhesive line is helpful.
• Classroom and DIY friendly—12 sticks in one pack means you can equip a small classroom or keep multiple colors on hand for a busy maker space.

Practical uses and scenarios

• Scrapbooking and card making: color-coded edges and accents that dry quickly, so you can layer elements without waiting.
• School projects: assign different colors to each component to simplify assembly instructions and grading.
• Home décor and seasonal crafts: create vibrant accents on wreaths, ornaments, and DIY gifts with visible glue lines that can later be painted or hidden.
• Fabric and lightweight craft projects: join fabric embellishments, foam shapes, or cardboard cutouts with a reliable hold.

Tips for best results

• Test a small amount on a scrap piece to verify color finish and bonding behavior with your materials.
• Apply a thin bead along seams and press firmly until set; colored sticks help you see where glue is going for neat, precise results.
• Allow a moment for the glue to cool before handling delicate parts to prevent shifting.
• Store in a cool, dry place to maintain consistency and prevent color bleeding between sticks.

Who benefits most

• Craft enthusiasts, teachers, and students looking to organize projects with color-coded glue lines.
• DIYers who want a quick, visually trackable bonding option for home décor, gift projects, and scrapbooking.
• Anyone who values a reliable, color-rich alternative to clear glue sticks for easier alignment and finish.
