Karen: use a hot glue gun
Please use a hot glue gun for heating glue.
The gun uses a continuous-duty heating element to melt the plastic glue, which the user pushes through the gun either with a mechanical trigger mechanism on the gun, or with direct finger pressure. The glue squeezed out of the heated nozzle is initially hot enough to burn and even blister skin.
Hi Karen. If you are trying to remove glue, use a heat gun. You can get it at any home improvement store. Be sure to not hold it in one spot very long. Wave it back and forth.
i am so sorry for the confusion - I was watching HOMETALK TV wreath tutorial and he uses a skillet looking item with melted glue and I like it better than a glue gun
I think this question relates to a specific post.
Hi Karen, I would be careful what I put the glue in, it could damage your electric skillet. Be safe and stay well. Microwave the glue on full power in 20-second intervals.
Depending on your microwave and amount of glue, you should at least be able to partially melt the sticks. If there are still solids, microwave the glue for an additional 20 seconds after stirring it with a craft stick or plastic spoon.

Hello Karen,
For animal glue, my father would use old cooking pot with boiling water, over which he would use an old paint kettle suspended into the water with a stick going through the handle of the paint kettle........Best wishes.
Hi Karen, you can use any type of pot, a no stick would be the best, but here is another example of what you can use, hope it helps
