I don't use her special tips, just carefully squeeze the glue out of the regular Elmer's bottle. It tends to want to bead up if I don't adhere the other fabric to it right away, so I also use the side of the tip to kind of spread the glue out. It is easier to manage the project if the glue is spread out instead of beaded up. If it beads up then it wants to ooze out where you don't want it. Hope that helps!
