New to crafting with a glue gun? Or, maybe you just need a quick refresher course? Check out this great list of hot glue gun tips and tricks from Rachel on Whimseybox, and you’ll be ready to start gluing in no time!

This week, my daughter asked if she could use my glue gun by herself for the first time.

You can check out the full list of tips—and add your own in the comments—over on Whimseybox!
