Do you remember the blue Camel gum bottle? It was a permanent fixture at our home and the brown, translucent liquid inside it crystalized often and was not the best glue around but Fevicol was a total different story. As a kid, I loved applying fevicol on my fingers and then peeling it off. It was so cool. Remember the old fevicol ads?
These fond memories about glue and sticking made this month’s Artsy-Craftsy more fun. What is craft without glue? It was also a chance for me to do crafts that I have been meaning to do but never got around doing them. Here are my entries
Pistachio shells struck to cardstock using craft glue. I love pistas and have made this craft many many years ago for one of thsoe art from waste class activities. I wanted make this for last month's recycled artsy-craftsy but never got around doing it. I am glad I could do it this month.
I have a bunch of baby socks lying around home. Did not have the heart to throw them away so made these for kuttyma. She loves them. Some craft glue and embellishments - your finger puppets are ready. I wanted to make this for the Artsy-Craftsy puppets challenge months ago.
Another supposed to be entry for the recycled Artsy Craftsy - icecream stick painted, felt flower and a pompom stuck together with craft glue makes an excellent bookmark and a cute gift. And that is the book I am currently reading for my Orbis Terrarum Challenge
Beads struck together using craft glue to form a designer gown for a stick lady . You can use lace instead of beads if you have them in hand
Cupcake liner crushed and pasted to make a field of flowers card
If anyone needs any instructions/help on how to do these just leave me a comment and I would be more than happy to help.
More for the Artsy-Craftsy Challenge to come soon
