need help

[party of 3]

ok i am working on my swaps and i'm trying to glue something very tiny to a slide mount and a piece of it hangs off, so i can't use my xryon, so what do you guys use to glue tiny pieces to things????

i could really use some help with this!

I use Scotch Quick-Dry Adhesive for tiny things and my Sakura Quickie Glue pen for extra tiny.

[BernardandMissBianca]

yes. The zig pen looks like a ball point pen so super small.

thanks buffy i will try there tomorrow.

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

no prob. Look where all the other scrapbook adhesive is. ACMoore carries it too.

Oh, and extra hint.

Use a tweezer to hold the tiny piece and put the glue on the larger piece where you want the tiny piece to go. I finally figured that out with the little shoes & mittens on Santa. Much nicer than glueing the little piece to the tweezer.

thanks for that advice AWM. i am making slide mounts for the everyday swap and the stuff i want to put on the side is just so teeny tiny. this is only my
2nd swap and i just want it to be perfect. my dh just says i'm being anal about it. i made one last night and nearly had a stroke over the stupid glue. really. i was so stressing over it. i'll give the tweezers a try.
thanks everyone!

Or a CM pick-up square can be helpful

which is what???? and what does it do????? and where do i get one????

Glue dots work well. Maybe the mini dot is small enough? They are super sticky and you can usually find them at ACMoore and Michaels.

Its a Creative Memories thing. Its a square of something a bit rubbery - you can use it to get the gunk off your multi purpose tool, but its slightly tacky and picks up small bits of paper like punches. Its not so good for precicion placing, but I find its easier to pick up with the square then lift it off with the tweezers - otherwise I'm chasing the paper all over the table
