Can I use dryer sheets instead of Static Magic?

[cissy]

Hello! I was hoping some well informed Scrapper could answer a question for me. I want to know whether or not a dryer sheet could be used instead of the Static Magic bags. I went to our local AC Moore and Michael's today and both were sold out of the SM bags. But I have some projects I want to work on today.

I hate to waste any precious (expensive) glitter so I thought maybe I could use a dryer sheet. Anyone tried it?

Thanks!

I've never heard of these over here we just end up covered with glitter How do you use them?

The are little bags that prevent static cling. So, you wipe them across the paper surface you are going to be adding glitter to before you put the glue down. Then the glitter only sticks to the glue and not the whole page. At the class, she had us do one with the bag and one without and I could not believe the difference!

I got so busy printing tee shirt transfers this week that I have not yet tried the dryer sheet. I will probably get to it later this week and I will update this post.

I never heard of those either. I will wait to see how the dryer sheet works, if it doesn't I will be looking for Static Magic!
