Quick Tip: Glue Dot Tangle Got You Down?

Glue dots are one of my favorite ways to adhere. They are quick, strong, and not gooey. As an over-gluer, I appreciate that! However, after awhile the paper strip that holds my dear glue dots starts getting in my way. I found myself constantly getting tangled in the paper strip. I tear the extra off, but I wanted to find a better solution.
 

The solution to keep your glue dot strip out of the way while you stamp only needs one item that you probably have in your house already - a twist tie!

Simply, thread a twist tie around the glue dot roll.
 

Next time you need a glue dot, slide the twist tie backwards to reveal the next one. The twist tie keeps the used strip in place. Tear off the excess paper strip as needed. No more mess.

How do you tame the glue dot tangle? I would love to hear your suggestions!

Thanks for stopping by!
