"My Stickles is STUCK!"

Okay, we've all been there.  We are squeezing out a bit sparkle onto our latest creation when all of a sudden.... nothing is happening!  We squeeze a little harder, and a little bit harder until our finger have turned purple.  In the heat of our frustration, we slam the little bottle of glitter on the table a few time and then think to ourselves... "this is just great.  I wasted my money on this little bottle and it's dried up and stuck."
 
Oh, but wait!  Can you tell that I have been in this situation before.  Apparently so have many others.  Air can sometimes get trapped inside the bottle and it will dry out the contents of the tip.  Or it could be a stray piece of larger glitter that is raising havoc on your life.  I sell lots of these little bottles and after I tossed a few of my own personal bottles, I finally had enough and contacted the company.  Now I am happy to be able to pass the "remedy" onto all of you that have had this frustrating moment happen.
 
So here is what you do.  Hunt around your house for a paper clip.  Not a needle, or a pin.  The tips of these are much too small.  You need a paper clip.  Open that wired life saver up and push the paper clip through the top of the fine tip applicator.  Pull the paper clip out, give your bottle of glitz a little shake and you are done. :)
 
That is it.  Believe it or not, it works!
