I use those green stoppers that you get at starbucks. You know the majig they give you to stop your coffee slopping out when you're driving around.....I first started using these things to scoop out glitter when mixing up batches for rock star toes, or sprinkling glitter directly on fingers or toes and now they make a damn fine stir stick, they come in handy for all kinds of odd little jobs......now my clients bring them to me, I have them everywhere in my studio!

Sarah,

I highly suggest something more substantial to stir your gels. Even a orange wood stick, the toothpick does not really have enough surface to effectively stir the gels. Stirring properly is important to get the pigments properly mixed with the gel. If regularly NOT properly mixed, at some point you will have a bad ratio of too little or too much pigment - too much or too little gel in relation to the amount of pigment.

I personally love the Gel Stir Stick Debbie sells in the BT Shoppe

Just make sure you REALLY stir it up, scrape the bottom and the sides, fold it like you were mixing batter !!
