Hi Ladies!

I have a new craft idea that I want to try out... but I am not sure what kind of glue to use. I need a glue that I can use on glass and photos without ruining either. Anyone know if one exists, and if so what is it called... and where can I get it?

TIA

I have a glue that works on glass, but it's tricky.
Anything that adheres to glass or other smooth surfaces will be a REALLY rough chemical.
anything that can be used on photos has to be acid free or it'll eat through the photo.
:( I think it may be impossible to find one that works on both :(
What's the project?

There is a glass glue called E6000 I got mine at Beverly's but I am sure Michael's etc. has it. Works great. We made magnets with photos using those glass marble things you put in flower arrangements. Glued the photo cutouts right onto the glass and worked like a charm! It is toxic stuff tho so do it outside or when the kids aren't around.

That's EXACTLY what I wanted it for- that is so funny. My sister sent me some that she bought and I thought it would be cool if I could make them with real pics of Baby Eman.

Ooooh it is a fun project. If you are doing the tiny ones you can do the tiny index print pics from when you get your film developed - they are the perfect size. We did some bigger ones too, depends on which marbles you get. LOL Here's some instructions LOL
