Title: Pritt Sticks
Post by: the.fee.fairy on September 16, 2007, 09:07:36 PM
When you've finished with your pritt stick (either it is finished, or it has dried up), use the tube for lotion bars.

I usually find that my pritt stick has dried up, so i pull the dried glue stick out of the base and then put the whole thing through the dishwasher (or soak it over night in warm water to dissolve and release any glue residues).

Then, use as you would a lip balm tube.

Its great for taking a massage bar type lotion travelling with you - i used to keep a shea butter one in my bag for the backs of my knees when i had flare ups.

*Adults Only - It is also great fun to use with a partner, and unlike massage bars, you don't have to worry about rolling onto it and melting it through your bedding, and mattress when you've moved on from massaging...*

Old enough maybe, but sooooo innocent (I really need an eyelash fluttering angelic emoticon right now, lol).

Nah, no worries Fee, it came over just fine although we are really getting to know all your secrets, he, he!  :D

Just one problem here.

No small sprogs so I don't use Pritt Sticks (for cards I use a [?pritt? roll-on applicator).

No - the adhesive is on a roll of tape in a cartridge which fits inside a dispenser/applicator, very handy.

Handy indeed, but must be difficult to fill with butter  :D lol!

How about old roll on deo's for oil?

There's a thought, OK for personal use but not for selling.

(off to dismantle and clean one)

Stick deodorant containers work just as well, and fit the contours of the body slightly better. I always prefer the pritts for my handbag, and the deodorant stick pots for the bedroom (not always in that way...i can see your minds working there...)
