Meet the ultimate JUMBO chenille stem. At 9 feet (2.74 meters) long, the Fuzzy Stems are an entirely new creative sensation! Soft & fuzzy, they bend to any shape imaginable. Great for costume design and home decor. The super fuzzy coat is actually faux (fake) fur, but it is thick and fluffy unlike any other pipe cleaner. Wire center can be cut with wire clippers (bend the tip of the cut down with pliers to keep the ends blunt and also to prevent fur shedding). Fuzzy Stems arrive in a bound coil which can be bent and re-bent into shape. Need to glue to the stems? Sure, we recommend using a low temp glue gun or tacky glue. Each stem measures roughly 1 inch (2.5 cm) thick with fur, which poofs to about 3 inches (7.6 cm) wide, fur tip-to-fur tip.
