Glue dots can be used to group items.
Just when you thought the mini glue dots were small and they couldn’t do more, here is another idea. Take your paper piercer and place a glue dot at the end of it. Then stick small sequins to the end of it. Now you have a cluster of sequins instead of placing them one atContinue reading “Glue dots can be used to group items.”
