Craft Pipe Cleaners & Chenille Stems

All our craft pipe cleaners come in a convenient, standard 30cm length. This length provides plenty of working space to bend, wrap, or twist into intricate shapes, figures, and stems. If your project requires smaller pieces, they can easily be cut down to size using standard craft scissors or wire cutters.

Plain chenille pipe cleaners feature soft, plush, velvety synthetic fibres wrapped around a flexible wire core, making them super tactile and perfect for animal shapes, dolls, and general crafts. Glitter pipe cleaners incorporate metallic tinsel strands into the core, giving them a brilliant sparkle that is ideal for Christmas ornaments, stars, crowns, and festive party decorations.

Yes, absolutely! Our 30cm pipe cleaners feature a pliable wire core that bends, twists, and coils easily without snapping, holding its shape firmly once sculpted. They can also be trimmed to any custom length using a pair of everyday kitchen or craft scissors.

Pipe cleaners are incredibly versatile craft tools. They are widely used for making bendable figures and animals, sculpting artificial flower stems, crafting holiday decorations, creating costume accessories (such as cat ears or insect antennae), and attaching tags or trims to larger hobbycraft projects.
