I have a secret to share with you....
I am a messy crafter.
Can you relate?
When I create, the mess is everywhere. It's not a pretty sight! Today I wanted to share with you a crafting tip that I have shared with many of the ladies who have taken craft classes from me. How many times do you start a project that requires glue or some type of sticky adhesive? If you are anything like me, the glue and adhesives get all over your table and your project.
Well here's the tip...
Let's take something that could be trash
and turn it into something very usful.
Do you have any of these catalogs laying around the house?
Or how about these?
Really it doesn't matter what type of catalog you use. I love the big thick catalogs with a lot of pages.
Just old magazines work great also.
Here's what I do....
Just old magazines work great also.
Here's what I do....
Open to the inside cover and turn to the back page. Use this page as you starting off point. Work directly on top of the page and apply the glue to your project. Now any excess glue will be on the page of the catalog.
When you're ready to glue the next piece just flip the page.
Now you have a clean spot to begin working on.
No more sticky table or getting glue on your project. Just a simple trick that will make your next craft project a little easier
and a lot less messy. If you found this gluing tip helpful head over HERE to learn anothter helpful tip for using your hot glue gun.
