This has been one of the most helpful, thorough videos I have watched on youtube. No fluff, watching you use the tools is 100x more helpful than watching someone talk about them, and seeing them all in action makes it much easier to compare than reading individual reviews. Thank you so, so much.

I use regular gems to decorate simple items. This! This will free me from hot glue! Thank you!

[@MsBeautiful]

This helped me with sizing crystals! Thank you

Thanks for the demos! After seeing them all in action, I think I'm going to try making my own first. I've got beeswax and toothpicks. If that goes well, I might even try making a larger one.

Great tutorial... Thank you!

In looking at the sticky tip tools, I would go with a pointed tip instead of a ball. If you want exact placement of smaller crystals, the ball blocks your view.
