Creativity Street Wood Crafts Jumbo Craft Sticks, 6" x 3/4" x 2mm, Natural, Box Of 500

528 sticks in the box. Of those three were damaged. I’d say this product meets up to its claims. I go though these sticks pretty quickly as a gardener. They have to be durable. These are. Although I wish they were a little thicker. Switched to another brand that was more expensive and made in the United States. That brand had less than 500 sticks in the box. At least 2% of those were damaged. I will stick with this. It is a better value. You get exactly what you’re supposed to in count. And they do a fairly good job when working with them.

I did not count these, but there are tons of them. A few are warped, but that is to be expected. They can be straightened if you absolutely must have them straight. Just soak them in hot water for about 15 minutes or so the rubber band the warped ones between several that are perfectly straight. Let them dry completely. Voila - fixed.

These are the best ever. Very sturdy, no cracked or broken ones and I have looked at each one. The color of each one is as close as you can get. They are very durable, sturdy, and hold wood glue or hot glue both very well. Very nice price for the value and the very quick shipping time. Thank you so much for the careful wrapping and shipping materials. Very nice indeed.

These are perfect for the art projects I want them for. Perfect sticks for scale wood projects.

Edit: If I want a perfectly flat stick I run them through a ceramic flat iron for hair the double pinch kind. I don’t toss out the ones with imperfections I iron them flat. If you use the technique watch out stick becomes very hot and demands care so a garden or work glove is enough it’s not red hot so this will be enough to keep fingers protected.Shh my little secret ;)Not bad at all not perfect, but not bad for the price paid. I’ve used other perfectly shaped craft sticks before but they didn’t look like natural wood and had no wood grain. I don’t know how these other sticks where made so perfectly but they definitely don’t look like or act like actual wood although they where supposed to be.These however look like actual wood and have grain. And as natural wood is they have some imperfections as to be expected from actual wood such as warps or other issues. So many of these sticks will have these traits.But there are ways to shape and sand them, my project involves that it shouldn’t look like it was made from popsicle sticks but from normal wood so when it’s done it does not look like it was made from crafting sticks at all I cut, sand, glue and and carve just like any other wooden project.So for me they are very practical. I don’t want that elementary school DIY look, stereotypical oh made from popsicle sticks. No for me it must cast doubt that the finished product “used to be popsicle sticks” but not longer resembles them, “made from popsicle sticks no way!” Vs “Oh popsicle sticks” not that I’m against that, but that is not my goal.

What in the great cave's of gotham is this? A massive box of popsicle sticks (aka craft sticks). Fat ones, skinny ones (just to finish this) little itty bitty ones. Yup its a box of kindlin and its awesome. As soon as I got it, I broke out ye old hot melt gun and built me a tower of sticks for a green bean plant. Not because I needed to just because I could. Then I built an itty bitty trough for an itty bitty horse that didn't exist till I built an itty bitty horse for the itty bitty trough.Its awesome. The sticks did not disappoint. They're almost uniformly thick and almost uniform in length and width with minor variations.

So far, I have found very few malformed sticks. They are mostly not warped and smoothly sanded. Good value for the money. My kids love using them with a hot glue gun. So easy to create furniture for their dolls.

I am using these sticks to mix my acrylic paint with the medium. I did noticed that if the stick is in the paint or other liquid a bit long it becomes flimsy where it bends in the middle and can split in half but not bad.

Perfect for what I need them for. No issues.
