100 Pack Wooden Stir Sticks, 12 Inch Mixing Sticks - Garden and Library Markers, Paint Stirrers

If you can't get these free anymore at a paint store, these are good quality, work perfectly for stirring paint, and are affordable. I appreciate that there are 25 to a pack, which should last awhile.

I know that you see paint stirrers but I see a great use for them as plant naming stakes! Yep! You can’t beat the quality, large enough space to write what you want on them and you can be creative about it too. Keep it simple or jazz it up a bit! Because of the great value and how sturdy they are, you don’t worry about them getting messed up! Use a waterproof marker on these wooden stirrers and go be creative. When your garden begins to flourish, you’ll still be able to identify what you planted. I highly recommend these paint stirrers.

Worked GREAT for my signs ! I used these to hold signs for our charity event and they held up fantastic!! I used E-6000 and glued them to the coreboard signs I made and they lasted all day

Used these to secure Styrofoam headstones for my Halloween graveyard scene. Worked perfectly!! Pro tip: cut a section of pool noodle at least half thr height of the headstone, cut the noodle section in half, tape the open/middle portion of the noodle to the back of the headstone, I used gorilla tape all-weather and use lots of tape so it stays stuck in the windand weather, using a small hammer pound the paint stick halfway into the ground, gently slide the headstone onto the stick so the stick is no longer visible! Works perfectly for those cheap dollar tree headstones!

Good, basic product. However, unless you're a professional painter, WHO needs so many sticks? Since these 12 inch sticks can be re-used several times, it would take the average person 10-20 years to use them all. Perhaps the "excess" could be given to other folks as "gifts", but then they'd think you were either cheap or nuts!!
