My Favorite Glues





First I want to apologize for my absence from here, YouTube and Facebook. To say 2019 was rough would be a complete understatement. I am ready to put it all behind me and look forward in the new year. Thank you to all that were concerned about me and a huge thanks to all who stuck around.

Now onto the subject for this week's video- my favorite glues.

I started off with the wallpaper paste because I do get asked a lot about this. I am very happy with the border paste I have been using. I have had no problems in any of the projects I have used it in so I can say with confidence it is a good product for putting the wallpaper in our dollhouses. This is one that brand shouldn't matter on, just purchase it from a good paint store.







The second glue today is just plain old Aleene's Tacky glue. I am a bit of a brand snob on glue and I have had the best luck with the name brand. I use tacky glue for just general crafting and gluing small things, especially paper projects.












Next up is super glue, while I really don't like any of the other Gorilla Glue products for making dollhouse miniatures their super glue is my favorite and I have used up several bottles at this point. I do prefer the gel version for most applications.









And finally my very favorite all around glue- Beacon's 3-in-1. I love this stuff for most of my projects and it is the one I run out of the most.










So will this list stay the same forever? Probably not, my tastes change as I find new products to try and also as things become harder to get or change their formulas. But for now these 4 are my favorites.
