The wand I made with a glue gun

Lately I read about the idea to use a lime pistol here, but I can’t find the message anymore. Otherwise I would have written there.

I have made a wand with this idea. It was lovely to do this. I have found a beach branche in the forest here. I love a beech there are so strong and sensual. Nicely curved formed. Very female.

I painted the glue with gold paint, and used clear crystals, some white feathers I found on the streets and blue ones I had. Also a blue ribbon and white gold one I still had in my drawer. And a heart shaped stone I found in the woods.

Thanks again for this wonderful idea.

@martje that is beautiful & so thoughtfully made!

I have never heard of a lime pistol, I’m definitely curious! Any insight on the term or process would be wonderful! I am also trying to find a previous post with something about the lime pistol in it, if I do I will share it!

Thank you, maybe I wrote it wrong, you know English is not my first language. It s a glue stick in a pistol ( looks like it) with a plug, and it gets hot so the glue melts and it gives a whimsical look in the end when it dries and hardens. Then you can paint it. I thought it was a genius idea!:blush:

Oh, no problem then! I understand… A glue gun! It melts the glue as you apply it then bonds after a few seconds when it cools down! No worries at all, glue guns are pretty handy to have when you like to make your tools & items. I use it for crafting items, artsy things, diy things, it’s a very versatile item to have! :revolving_hearts:

I think I just used the Dutch word for it with an English accent🤪

This is gorgeous, @martje ! You’ve made magick from your beech branch and a glue gun! I love all your pretty details, and the white feathers - I agree with you, very female, and she’s so pretty. :heart: Great job.

May it serve you well! :magic_wand: :sparkles:

Giggle. And here I was thinking of some kind of gun which shoots little green fruit or squeezes the fruit and shoots the juice!… Or some kind of green paint.

Now it makes better sense. Thank you for clarifying. I have a better idea of how to follow your process of creation.

That would be fun for drawing the circle. You could just aim and draw one on the ground with your lime pistol!

@georgia I had similar visuals of a little gun that used limes or lime juice or just a little pistol that was itself lime green :laughing:
