What are the best adhesives to use?

August 29th, 2007

Question: Hi,

Could you tell me the best adhesive to use of these types

dots?
removable?
permanent?
liquid?

Thanks

Answer:  I can understand why you would ask such a question.  Since there are literally thousands of options, I am going to tell you my favorites for each kind (i.e. the ones I actually use on a day-to-day basis.)

Dots:  Glue Dots has been the best brand for me.  Make sure you check whether you want flat ones or the pop up kind when you are purchasing them.  I use mini glue dots the most (they are perfect for buttons, charms, and die ciuts). 

Removable/Permanent:  This is a hard one because I usually use permanent everything because I lay everything out on my pages and cards and then stick them when I already know where they need to be.  But I do use tape runners that are both permanent and removable.  I like the brand Ad tech currently and use it for all my permanent stuff.  But I have used Scrapbook Adhesives tape runner in the past. Allary and Scotch are the only brands I have used for repositionable/removable runners.   

Liquid: Making Memories is my favorite here, mostly because they have several different kinds for ribbon, metal, and everything else.  I have their 3-pack of all of them.

 I hope this information helps!!
