I want to stick individual seed beads onto card - IDEAS please?

[VeniVidiVickiQV]

As to how to glue them or what glue to use to make them stick. And stay stuck.

Thank you!

PVA is normally pretty effective - and cheap!

if you are sticking them in clusters glue dots might work. my first thought was to stitch them tho.

WMMC, for individual weeny ones in a dainty fashion? Wouldn't it show too much?

It dries clear - I apply it with an art brush though.

ah......

see hunker - i said stitch them

ooooo did someone mention ....beads
I lurve beads

any ideas whizzzzzzzz?

not something i have tried to do. PVA is pretty good but it may be visable??

i thought of PVA too actually but thought it might be a bit shiny when it dried

Dont leave me hanging on like a yo-yo

or sticj them using clear illusion thread onto card then stick card into desired place

stitch !

whoops posted that into the wrong place........

What is clear illusion thread whizzzz?

Yes, VVV, you said sew them.

But fgs, you'd bleed on the invitations if we let you near them with a needle

Whizzz, can you use that stuff on vellum?

HIJACK!

I didn't get your CAT. I guess they thought it was inappropriate

its like see through nylon stuff

hunker...

DP is not impressed with me. I'm a right little bleeder it seems!

Desi - will have stern words with MNHQ.......

in meantime email me on cheesy_pooff at hotmail dot com

hunker.....erm suppose so - its a bit like fishing line!

I second whizzz.

VVV - use a blunt needle if you are inclined to accidents (eventually your skin hardens up and you don't bleed much anymore tho....take it from someone with experience!!!)

ah. Blunt = more dangerous to me

Blunt, is less sharp, so more likely to slip/jolt through....

This is why DP has decided that, on balance, the kitchen knifes should be sharp, not blunt. No chance of slips etc

a sharp needle will give a better, less visible hole I think. I can send you some thread to try if you like VVV

Or you could use a nice coloured thread & not try & hide it - use it as part of the design maybe.

Thank you whizz! That'd be great. You are truly lovely, you know that?

Will get something sorted out for you
