ReplyDeletejgabriel@shaw.ca
These look way kewl! It's been a Holiday crafting season of more than ONE hot glue gun burn! LOL
ReplyDeleteI started laughing when I saw this because I've been working with elementary school students and hot glue, since we don't let them do it themselves and I told my hubby that with two weeks worth of gluing, I only burned myself a few times. However, I almost always burn myself while I'm at home, on my own, and under no time crunch. This would be great for me!
ReplyDeleteOMG! Not only do I love this, I NEED this!!! I'm about to burn off all my fingerprints!!!!
ReplyDeleteI think I would be much more likely to use my hot glue gun if I didn't get burned! I would love this :)
ReplyDeleteoh, this looks fantastic!
ReplyDeleteI so need one of these - I just burned my finger with my hot glue gun putting ribbon on an ornament.
ReplyDeleteOh this would be perfect for me!! I just burnt myself yesterday crafting!! And got hot glue all over my craft table!!

ReplyDeleteLove it! Glue gun is my best friend in crafts, so such a set wpuld be my next best - awesome idea!
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect giveaway! I still burn myself on my low-temp glue gun. Thanks! :)
ReplyDeletei sure could use the help Amy! and if i win i just may get myself a whole new glue gun too! that'd be truly awesome.
ReplyDeleteha I have burns on my finger tips right now from Christmas gifts I have been making! Brilliant idea!!
ReplyDeletekb61204@gmail.com
I've always dealt with little burns -- I thought it was part of using a glue gun. Then, a few weeks ago I was making tons of stuff for an upcoming craft fair. I stuck an entire fingertip in a molten blob of high-temp hot glue....! That ended my crafting for the night and had me running to the freezer to get my kids' boo-boo bunny ice pack out! I am super excited about this product. Thanks for letting us know about it! And, thanks for the chance to enter! (I can't use enough exclamation points!!!!!!!)
ReplyDeletemab(at)onepost(dot)net
Very nifty! Having burnt my fingers many a times, this would be MOST helpful!
ReplyDeleteThanks,
Hanneke
I wish I had known about these last month =). Could have saved my fingers.
ReplyDeleteThis would be perfect!!! I would love to get a set!
ReplyDeleteI would love to stop burning myself and not have to cut drips on glue out of the carpet... don't tell my husband!

ReplyDeleteOh! I could sure put one of those to work!
ReplyDeleteJanikapp@aol.com
This product would be so useful in our home, and I don't even think my other half would care about the pink theme! We use our glue guns for a range of crafts as well as electronic projects, and having these tools would not only help make our lives easier as far as finger saving, but also avoiding gooey blobs because there was no good was to work with the hot glue! Well thought out product idea!
ReplyDeleterengawk at gmail dot com
What an absolutely fantastic giveaway! I've been burning my poor fingers with hot glue for a while now. And the pad to set it on is awesome. Mine keeps falling over and it annoys the heck out of me. Thanks for the giveaway! Here's hoping!

If I don't win one, I will be putting this on my Santa list. Hard to believe that it has taken this long for someone to come up with something so much needed.
ReplyDeleteWow--do you realize how many blisters this would have saved me over the years!!!
ReplyDeleteOhhh I would LOVE this. I got what I believe to be a 3rd degree burn on two of my fingers a week before I was due while making bows for my baby from a glue clog that came spurting out. This would have been very helpful!!
ReplyDeletei need this so bad. my poor finger is still in the healing process, as I type, from a glue gun burn. this is an awesome product.

ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a smart creation. Boy who hasn't burned a few fingers while using our favorite tool. Funny how burning our fingers doesn't stop us from still going back. Where would we be without our Glue Gun friend!
ReplyDeleteMegan
mcarusopartridge@gmail.com
Brilliant idea: it's gotten so bad that the glue gun only comes out for the boys' school projects -- and then I use it and accumulate the burns, rather than see what they would do. Would dearly love this set.
ReplyDeleteThanks for a great giveaway!
ReplyDeleteMaybe my aloe plant will have a fighting chance of survival if I'm not always trimming it to treat my glue gun burns lol...

ReplyDeletethis would be GREAT to have!!! i'm pretty sure that i no longer have finger prints on a couple of fingers because i've burned them so many times! haha
ReplyDeleteI stopped using hot glue for fear that my lil ones would get burned wanting to help. Now that I have a craft space to really work in I haven't brought it out, because I don't like the burns. Wouldn't it be nice to win one and not think about it again? ^_^
ReplyDeleteThis would greatly reduce the swearing in my house.
ReplyDeleteWow! What a great idea! I'm sooo going to have to get one of these ;)
ReplyDeleteI would love one of these packages! I have a scar on my left hand courtesy of a hot glue gun way back in middle school.
