Here you go, much better. A friend helped me out. I think I'm going to get a can of silver paint and paint it...

Cute!

Shoe, E6000 is a super-great glue for crafting as it sticks real well, even in the weather and it dries clear so you can glue glass to glass and not have a cloudy, smeary looking mess between them.

Shoe, I had never heard E6000 either and sure enough, it was in the craft section at Walmart. I can't believe all the cool stuff I've learned here

I think we should all get a check for making the E6000 people richer.

It seems everyone is using it now.

Ya'll are "Crazy" Glue folks! Well, okay, just crazy people, delightfully so, who use glue. :>)

Okay, I'll keep an eye out for e6000. It sounds like "super glue" or something.

I'll have to check out my "resources pile" in the woods for some project materials.

Gulp...I fear the worse. I've been known to easily glue two fingers together. I can see me gluing my hand to my forehead while scratching my brain in thought....

No worries, I'll find a child to supervise me.

Thanks!

Don't know til you start Shoe and we'd sure love to see what you come up with....
Just let it itch, don't scratch til you are finished with the glue...

Hmm...guess I'm getting my mileage outta this pic. It's not from tin cans but Vic and Becky suggested I repost it in this thread. (Also previously posted some months back somewhere on ATP, more'n likely in the Garden Art forum.)
