JTTHECLOCKMAN Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 Does anyone know where I may get round colored plastic toothpicks???? I got some colored ones on line from the only place I could find and that was Ward's natural science. But they were not round the were flat. I need thousands of them in different colors. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merlin Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 why not color your own, buy plain, then soak in food coloring. Just a thought hmmm.... Merlin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christina Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 I'm with Merlin on this one JT............that's what I would do. Seems silly to pay for colored ones when it would be simple to color your own and get exactly what you want. I'm intrigued with whatever you could be using them for...........hope it works out and you can share photos with us! Christina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTTHECLOCKMAN Posted September 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 why not color your own, buy plain, then soak in food coloring.Just a thought hmmm.... Merlin Merlin It is not that simple. The wood ones are made with a close grain wood and getting the stain to penetrate all the way through has been a problem. I need to find another way to get the color all the way through. I am thinking I may boil the sticks before placeing in the stainand this will open them up more. I am experimenting a little. Haven't worked out all the details yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
