I didn't realize hot glue sticks came in different colors, but they do. Has anyone used colored hot glue? What were your experiences like? Any pictures to share?

Thanks! guinness

I have used the coloured with sparkly bits in it glue sticks to make a fantasy spiders web. Looked good but was too fragile to survive my great-granddaughters hands. I intend to try again soon if my hands are up to it.

I bought some black glue sticks, but they were for use with hair extensions -- they would not melt in my hi-temp glue gun! Look on the Internet for instructions on how to create your own colored glue sticks. Cheers!

where on earth did you find colored hot-glue sticks? i want them for doing some jungle terrain – so either brown, green, or black.

e-Bay has them, if your gun can melt them. Best of luck. Cheers!

Used them in attaching some of the bones minis to bases, namely using the ones close to the original color.
