Question about glue for program fans

Tracy D, on February 27, 2017 at 9:51 PM Posted in Do It Yourself 0 7

I'd love to get started on my program fans for 5/20, but I'm wondering if the glue will lose its hold after a while. I'll be making them out of folded 8.5x11 110lb cardstock, wooden wavy craft sticks, zig 2-way glue and maybe some double-sided tape. Does anyone have any experience with this? I don't think I've done any arts & crafts since elementary school lol

    For the double sided tape look for permanent double sided tape. I'm not familiar with that particular glue but generally glue shouldn't lose it's hold, especially on paper. I guess just make sure to store them somewhere where they're not subjected to extreme temperature changes.

    I don't have experience so maybe I'm shooting in the dark but would wood glue work?

    Use a hot glue gun. Thats faster and will hold.

    Rubber cement glue if using card stock paper. I used it for my invitations and it came out great. I do suggest once you glue place the programs between 2 heavy books. This will prevent and wrinkles that appears with any glue and paper project.

    Thanks for the suggestions! Glue dots look interesting and mess free, I'll have to look into those!
