I just had to pull out the Big Shot Join in the Cheer die cut strip and try it on some glass ornaments. The question was – which adhesive would work best? I’ve done some experimenting so you can skip the parts that didn’t work! I started by running the die cut through my Big Shot machine using a 3 x 12 inch piece of Real Red. After I cut the individual words apart I tried using my Xyron (machine), glue dots, Snail adhesive and Crystal Effects to adhere the words to the glass balls. They all stuck to the ornaments – at least at first! To make a long story short, the only adhesive that held up well before, during, and after was the Crystal Effects. Yes, it takes a bit longer to allow for drying – but the end results were great! Here are the ornaments – minus the “cheer” because the Xyron adhesive didn’t hold up at all and I scrapped that entire ornament and will have to remake it!
Hummmmm, they could use some bows! So what are you waiting for? Get busy making ornaments! Enjoy! Hugs, Fran
These are very pretty, Fran!! Thanks for sending along your adhesive findings!
