[Nfb-krafters-korner] Gluing help

Terry K,

Glue is a difficult thing that I avoid if possible. I don't know what you 
are doing so will throw out some general ideas. If you are putting the beads 
in a lid or something to make a coaster for example, you might try putting 
the glue in the lid and then putting the beads in it. Also, they do make 
glue dots and glue sticks like a pen that you can put the glue down with. 
Could you sew or tie or somehow attach these beads another way? I'd find 
that much easier if it will work. Another thing to try is to take a paint 
brush and put the glue where you need it and then apply what you need to 
glue. I hope these ideas will at least get you thinking about solutions.

Greg

Can anyone give me suggestion on using glue for vision impaired person. I
can not see the glue and have to glue beads. It is a mess once I have it on
my hands. I then stick to everything I am gluing. I place glue on a piece of
card, then take the bead and place it in the glue then place the glued item
on to what it is to be stuck to. Well, sometimes I get it, sometimes it gets
me. Tried using gglue from bottle, too much comes out, messy. Any
suggestions, that might help.

Terry K
