Does not work. Bought to stick computer paper notes to a notebook and it does not even stick to the notebook. If you do manage to get it stuck it fall off.

I bought this to use solely for glue printer paper into my journal, and it’s not holding paper to paper, that’s about as basic as a glue stick needs to preform. I applied the glue full coverage to the paper specifically getting the corners and edges and this is the result (see photograph). Will be returning.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this girls for projects with my girls. It's easy to use and easier to clean up. A lot of things say washable and never truly are. This is easy to clean up and if it happens to get on something it comes off very easily.
Great Product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I gave this glue stick to a kindergarten teacher to use in her class and this product just isn’t for kids!! The stick glue has always kinda been for kids because it just glides on paper but this glue stick made a huge mess with her kids. I would be careful giving this to your kids and maybe just helping them with any glueing project.
We love Elmer's glue

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I run a daycare and we love our Elmer's glue. I am songreatfuk to have a brand that cares about its products and thebkids who use it. I know my kids are always safe using there products. This glue is awesome. We needed something the kids could see but would not show up under there art. This glue dried perfectly clear and did not make the paint color bleed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this extra large glue stick. We have small kids and their motor skill are not mastered yet so it helps them to have a glue stick this big. It still fits in their tiny hands, and it gives them more control to use the glue. The kids love making crafts and now they can use the glue easier and not make such a big mess.
Good for beginners.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The large size helps with coordination of little hands. Additionally, the color purple dries clear and provides for a fun time crafting from beginning to end. Elmer's disappearing purple glue stick is nice for the beginner crafter. Clean up is a breeze. A little soap and water is all you need. As always, Elmer's did not disappoint.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For as long as I can remember Elmers glue has been a staple for schools and at home, for me. Today I feel just as safe. The glue stick is such a good idea. It dries in a timely matter allowing for positioning and repositioning. Goes on purple and dries clear. Talk about fun.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The ELMER'S SCHGS CARD 40G (1.4OZ) 48PK/50 is such a great product. The product spreads smoothly and evenly. The cleanup is a breeze. I remember when I used this as a kid and there are still many uses for it today. Just another great product from Elmer's.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Since school is now is mostly at home, many craft and paper projects abound. This glue stick is fantastic. Being purple in color, it is very easy to see where it has been placed. The glue dries fast and dries colorless. Washup is easy with soap and water. The glue will adhere to most surfaces but works best on paper, fabric and thin plastic. The applicator is very ease to use by twisting the base. Great for any craft ideas.
