Seems to me that while this does serve a function, the primary use to to make your world a little prettier while doing so. Nothing wrong with that! They are not very expensive, purchasing one supports small businesses and adds a little something special to your craft space. I hope to order one soon!
I love my stopper toppers! I don't have any issues with mine either, but I am gentle with them and treat them gently. Keeping them clean of glue and not forcing it down if I have a clog. I used my pin for that or clean my tip. Thanks for all the tips Maymay! Hugs, Brenda
I love ❤️ mine. I haven’t had any problems with mine. I do treat them like fine jewelry and never have any problems. If my glue tip is clogged I use a straight pin to clear the opening before putting my Stopper Topper in. I also use my finger to glide the tip into my glue bottle. Great tips.
I’ve still never seen them here in the Uk I’ll have to go on the hunt again, see if anyone has them. I did think I would try and make some, not sure it will work, but going to have a go!
Awhile back, from my neglect, my silver tip got very clogged and the glue in it dried hard as a rock. I soaked it for several days in hot soapy water. I changed the water every day. I spent a lot of time trying to dig it out. I finally used a plastic toothpick with the brush on one end. The little brush end was just right to get in there to open it up. Another little item to keep in your craft room stash.
Love mine but it did have quite a kink in it when it arrived. I have been trying to get it corrected but it won't quite get straight. It is usable though.
I keep a cheaper, sturdier pin taped to my glue bottle for the rare occasions when I leave the pin out too long and need to unclog it. As long as the tip isn’t clogged, I have no problems.
I struggle with the silver tip. It always gets filled up with glue and the more I clean it the worse it seems to get. Can you do a video on how to keep it from getting clogged?
I used to have a similar issue. What has helped is when I am through using it for the moment, I dip my stainless steel needle (the one that came with the top) into the silver tip, wiping it clean each time. It usually takes two or three dips. When it comes up clean, that's when I insert my pretty Topper.
Look for STAINLESS STEEL EYE PINS. Craft stores might carry them. Just be sure it specifies STAINLESS steel or they will rust inside the tip. Take your pin with you to compare size and thickness.
I bought one of these and I am really unhappy about it. The regular stainless steel pins are more useful with a ribbon tied around the top.. This stopper topper causes more work as far as it's sensitivity. Granted, I did not read all the notes about it, but this is still useless. The video warning about the stopper topper should have been done before being sold in stores. They will not take them back. Thus, the dislike of this video.

I love my Topper! Fortunately I saw your earlier video cautioning us to be gentle with it, so I have had no issues.
Love Amanda’s tip about using your thumb as a guide. I still don’t own a stopper topper because t if. Get one I’ll remember all these awesome tips!

Perfect timing! My stopper topper was shipped today! Looking forward to receiving my order, and trying out my Stopper topper! 😊
That is such a cute stopper! 😍
I love my Stopper Toppers, I have three & I use them all! Great ip!
I just brought 1; really love it; very soft with it and iam going to order more
Great tip, thanks Maymay. Lexie from Australia
I ordered one waiting for it to arrive. Can this fit inside the fine tip too?

Stopper Toppers are so pretty.
Good tip!!
So these pins dont work with the stainless steel metal tip?

I love my stopper topper!!!❤️❤️❤️

Unfortunately, I learned this the hard way. Thanks for the tips.
Love mine, I have 2 so far ...
I keep a nail file block with my pins, so I have them handy to unclog my tip...my stopper topper is great. Yes it is a nice decoration.
Im heavy handed it appears but I will learn not to be because I love my stopper toppers! thanks for the great tips!
I absolutely love mine, but I noticed after a few days the glue would come out a little yellow...is that normal!
I love my stopper toppers I have two of them ❤️❤️

Does the pin have to be stainless steel & why?
Hi Janice...If the pin isn't stainless it will rust and then the glue will get the rust in it. Hope this helps.
@@craftsandcards Yes, it did! Thank you!!!
💗💗💗 TFS.
If we have broken our stopper topper pin, where can we get just the pin to replace it? I love my angel ST and want to be able to fix it.

A lot easier to find.
Thank you . I have destroyed 2 of them already. But, I love them. I did exactly what you said not to do. So, it's my fault.
