Glue sticks are solid adhesives that come in small plastic tubes. They are applied by running the glue end over the surface in single or multiple strokes. The stick is usually pushed up by turning a knob at the bottom of the tube. They apply more evenly than liquid glue, which prevents creasing when applying thin materials like paper and plastic. They are also ideal for children's art classes because they are less messy than liquid glue.
Clarity: Choose a clear glue stick if you work with colored paper to keep it from blotting or damaging the color. Make sure it applies thinly to prevent creasing.
Composition: Look for a solid, compact glue stick for a more even application. Avoid those with a soft or gel-like texture because they can create crease lines as they dry.
