    I had gotten some blood red, hot melt glue sticks at Michaels Crafts. I got a pan of cold water and drizzled the hot glue into the cold water from about 6 inches up. The strands of glue set up instantly, forming a nice bundle of "veins" that I placed in mason jars. This is simple quick and most importantly CHEAP!

    I should add that you need to keep the glue gun moving to avoid the glue from globbing up.

    I had "0"-$! So my display pieces came from the garbage or from the ancient city dump right over the cliff behind my house, all sorts of bottles, many very old waiting to be plucked up.
    I labeled them:"Ravens Grin Underware Paint..Scented" For restoring "White" to whites.
    One very small bottle was labeled "Political Honesty", this was enough for a whole big room full of those people we elect.
    I mixed some dark blue paint to match the lettering on a famous bottle of beer and made it now say:"Butt Geiser-Kink of Rears!" I had to remake this after someone stole my first one, the second one has a hole drilled through the glass and is bottled down.

    Great idea Wolfbeard. I'm going to have to rush right out and get some red . I would imagine since all the sticks are the same, then any color including the flouescent ones would work to create some startling effects!

    I just had a thought I'm going to try out. 2 glue sticks (different colors) . Take a dremel and cut each in half lengthwise. Feed half of each stick into gun like they were one stick. Instant vericose veins??? Might just work... Cait
