Types of Pipe Cleaners

Hi this is Andrew Jenkins on behalf of expertvillage.com. Now in this clip I'm going to be talking about different kinds of pipe cleaners, different shapes, and sizes and where to get them. Now when you first go shopping for pipe cleaners you might try a traditional craft store like Hobby Lobby or one that I use to work at called Paparazzi but, if you actually go to a regular store. A department store like Target, or Wal-Mart they also have pipe cleaners available for arts and crafts in pretty good deals. Now once you get to the store you got a wide selection to choose from. I prefer Tree House brand they come in this multicolor sort of package you could actually see the pipe cleaners inside the package. So you would know exactly what you are getting. Some other label sort of tend to hide them so you are not 100% sure until you get them home. Regular pipe cleaners are just the cylindrical full cylindrical steam. They are usually about 12 inches long and these work great for most crafts but, if you want to do something special there is these one call Bumpy Chenille Stems now they have for ventilation they come out looking like this when you bring them out of the package. If you want to a sort of a pipe cleaner animal that is more fuzzy or has some more mass to it of if at less you want it to look that way these work great. You could bend them at the joints where there is not much fuzz and then you have the fuzz sticking out of the other places.
