Hi there....
Great to see you here today!
I have a cute little project for you. Here in Australia, we are unable to get hold of Tracy's Clever Glue boxes, so I decided to create a little version of a glue holder to sit on my table (which works for me because I dont have a great deal of room!)
I used some toilet rolls to create the holder parts.....Here's how I did it!
Cut out some Chipboard and trim down some toilet rolls..... to the dimensions above!
I glued the two chipboard piecec together, using the Helmar Acid Free Glue (great for bookbinding) Using Helmars Glue spreader. I also applied it to the 6 x 6 inch paper chosen for the toilet rolls and continue on as follows.
Roll the paper around the toilet rolls and trim the ends down to the toilet roll edge so they can be folded in neatly
Once the toilet rolls are covered, apply a piece of patterned paper to the base as well and trim another piece of Paper to just slightly smaller than the chipboard piece to cover the reverse side (bottom) of the base, so the bottom is neatly finished off.....
Using HELMAR 450 QUICKDRY Glue run a bead of glue around the endge and attach it to the covered base.
Add some weight tot he top to secure the glued tiolet rolls to the base until the glue dries.
AND decorate as desired. I used more Helmar 450 Quickdry Glue to adhere all the embellishments.
And its finished ready to hold my glues as I am using them, keeping the glue ready to go!!!
Thanks for stopping by!
