We're big fans of the Apple Pencil here at Creative Bloq. Combine with an iPad, and it makes an outstanding stylus for digital art. But it isn't exactly cheap. And even though the Apple Pencil 2 magnetically attaches and has flat edges to stop it from rolling away, it can still be mislaid.
An economical solution? Well, if you happen to have a chilli pepper on hand, it seems that might be a decent stand-in. At least until you can find your stylus (see our roundup of the best Apple Pencil prices if you'd prefer the real thing).
