I want to use these mints to make garland for my Xmas tree ... So they must be the traditional twisted ended mints in order to hit glue them together

Yes they have twisted ends. Also I was very pleased with the taste- not overly harsh mint taste- just right. ALso the quantity- the bag was gigantic.

Yes, these mints have the twisted ends. Just be aware that many of the mints have nowrappers and are loose in the bag. I throw them away because I wouldn't eat anythingthat isn't wrapped. If you're using them for garland you'll be using the wrapped onesso they should be fine. The taste is good and the price is right. Huge bag, too.Good luck with your garland and happy holidays!

I would love to post a photo but there's not a photo upload capability here so I will try to describe: I place them in some silver plated wine goblets filled with sand and white rocks so that the curly leaves hang over the edges. It looks very elegant!

Haa haa, good luck with that. I only used about a dozen...I placed them in soap and gave them as a carnival theme party favor. Maybe start making jewelry, key chains?

I gave them away last year, and plan to this year as well. It was simple I put a connector on one end and then left them straight and unbroken in a large vase so they could break them and make the bracelet when they wanted. worked great! Same price as candy but something a little different. Plus after Halloween there is not gobbs of left over candy that we really don't need.

Try cracking the whole nutmegs with a hammer first or a nutcracker if the type you have will work. The pieces should grind OK. I have a tiny grater that I use only for whole nutmegs. It makes a fine powder. I wouldn't use a grinder unless you need more than say a tablespoon.

I'm sorry I can't help you, I purchased this for my mom to use on her vintage jewelry, I have no idea how to even use them!

I think the glue would hold the decorations in place just fine, but it would be very messy to apply. Not for really fine work.

I would suggest attaching them prior to seasoning the wood, as you don't want to have liquid where the glue sticks to the wood. That will not help with the bonding process.

Mmmm. I think so but can't remember. No matter. You can buy the ends and make your own. I did. 2m was not long enough.

These blanks are pretty thin. They don't hold their shape after bending. Stamping might give them more strength. I would use a gilders paste just to give them some interest. I tried using polymer clay on them and was disappointed with the lack of strength.

No you cannot. They are glued into place. Although a solid shot into a tree will break the tip right off.Although, once the tips are broken, they make excellent blunt tipped bolts

Donna is right, glue didn't work. I personally thought these were cheap and wouldn't order them again. Fyi.

Gee, I didn't know there was one. I use them on yarn to tag it. I also glue them into my book of post it's. They sell it here, it's called Knit Happy. LOVE me some Post-it's!Ok I looked it up... these are single... with the glue on ONE side,,, you want alternating glue on each side right?

Yes. Use gold Christmas wrapping paper. It is very effective because of the similarity to fruit especially if you use the kind with texture. Do not put a bow on it. That would be silly.

That is what I have bought them for, but not used them yet as they are for a party in December. Sorry

They are square so it would be easy to cut a piece for a travel palette. It may be more fun to just package the sticks in a travel friendly pouch instead of the tin. I would love to see your work.

I used mine as candy fillers for baby shower favors. I placed jolly ranhcers, skittles, and mints in mine and all three fit with no problems. I hope this helps!
