Thank you for all of these suggestions! Will apply with my next pens :)

[@Chrissy_T85]

Hey Alison! Omg it's been a while since I've watched your videos due to work! So glad I'm off on the weekends to watch your videos and make different things. Thank you so much!!!!❤

[@cre8tivity87]

So glad I found this. I'm looking for a project to keep me busy when winter comes, and this will definitely work. Also, I love Glitzy Kreations too. I use her glitter for my tumblers.

[@amyangellie]

Great video!! Thanks for an easy explanation 😊🩷

[@banarozh2599]

In my country, men in prisons make this for their family and friends. I am glad I finally can see how they are made ☺️

[@vickiecar100]

Thank you 🥰🥰

[@Vinaluv]

thank you.

[@AlisonCrafts]

You're welcome!

[@aliciashank8789]

Love it. I seem to get excess glue over the rhinestones. Any suggestions?

[@msrwilkes]

Great Great video thanks so much. Question... how long are you waiting for your rows to dry in-between the next stone placements? TIA

[@moniquecortazzo7194]

can you use resin rhinestones or do they have to be glass?

[@user-kx1rt5jb7f]

I bought the inkjoy gel pens, but they have a clip on them. How do you take that clip off to make the barrel Smooth?

[@leeannmiracle199]

Thank you for sharing. What is the pen holder off to the side? Are you drying the first row on it? 😊

[@AlisonCrafts]

You can find the adapter on my website! alisonsullivan.co/shop/p/penadapter

[@monicamo7291]

Hi Alison, could you share a link to the glue you mention? I have fusion, but want to check out the other glue and didn't find it in your Amazon link. Thanks! And awesome pen!

[@ree87961]

On the gel pens from Amazon you linked in your store, how do you do the bottom where it look like it is rubber?

[@AlisonCrafts]

I don't ever do the bottom part but you can, the same way you do the rest of the pen!

[@Whitecandy100]

Hi what kind of paint should we use?

[@AlisonCrafts]

Any primer paint like spray paint or here I’m using the crystalac paints

[@oliviareyes1811]
