Well see it started at Wal-Mart in the crafts section I noticed a package of 100 of these things that looked an awful lot like pipe cleaners. For only a buck I thought what a great deal and threw them in the cart. Come to realize now that these are NOT for cleaning pipes, they cant be. The little fuzzy " bristles " just fall right off of them and they bend before taking them out of the package, let alone trying to run them the length of the pipe. Then i look at the package and they are actually labeled " art supplies ".

Yup...You live and learn. Now you got something else to leave fuzz on everything it touches.

With Halloween coming up, you can use them to make spiders for decorations.  |

I made this unfortunate mistake once before. My art supply pipe cleaners were sold in a tobacco shop.

On a better note, real pipe cleaners dont cost too much more. I buy lots of tapered and regular ones with almost every order I make. I dont know if it's possible to have too many.
Lesson learned, and that's what matters.

B.J. Long pipe cleaners offer the best quality for the money.
