The Surprise Item Crafters Never Knew They Could Get From Ryobi

Ryobi is a popular power tool manufacturer for people looking to save a few bucks, while still building a reliable collection of hardware. The Home Depot-exclusive brand offers a wide variety of options, ranging from chainsaws and leaf blowers, to power drills and glue guns. Glue guns not only come in handy for bathroom remodels, but you can also pick one up for arts and crafts as well.

The Ryobi P307 Glue Gun is a solid option. The P307 costs $59.97 and includes bonuses like interchangeable nozzles and dual temperature settings. You'll also get 10 glue sticks included with the purchase of the P307. 

This glue gun is within the 18V Ryobi ecosystem, meaning you can use the same batteries that come with the glue gun with other 18V ONE+ Ryobi tools.

If you notice your glue sticks running dry and you have none left, luckily, Ryobi has plenty of ways to stock your glue supply back up. Crafters who want to use glue as a functional and stylistic part of the art can also opt for a colored tube of glue. You're able to get packs of six pink, teal, lime green, and maroon sticks from Ryobi for around $16 in a variety pack. 

This isn't worth it if you're using the glue just stick something to the wall, but instead, it's geared toward using it as part of the design. If you don't need all of those colors, you can opt for a smaller set of warm or cool colors. The glue works on wood, plastic, ceramics, fabrics, and cardboard, so there's not going to be many places where you can't break out the glue sticks and get to work on a project.

If you're not in need of colored glue, perhaps glow-in-the-dark sticks could be more up your alley. Ryobi offers a 24-pack of them for about $15. The bundle would be perfect for making wall decals like stars and planets for a child's bedroom. Of course, if you're looking for a simple refill of regular glue, Ryobi offers that as well. A 24-pack can be had for under $12, much cheaper than the glow-in-the-dark and colored sticks.
