Simple Embellishments and Decorations

I was recently playing around with Helmar's Premium Craft Glue and was delighted to find that it has so many wonderful uses. With the holiday season just around the corner I've been making decorations and tags in my moments of spare time and thought I would share with you these simple but lovely projects 🙂

All you need are some small page pebbles or similar, stamped images to fit the pebbles using permanent ink, a flat backed chandelier crystal and an image of your choice. Some scraps of lace, paper and ribbon or seam binding and of course Helmar Premium Craft Glue.

Cut the stamped images to fit the pebbles and the printed image to fit the crystal, the easiest way to do this if you don't have a punch is to trace around the pebble/crystal and then cut slightly inside this line and it should fit wonderfully. If you don't have permanent ink in your printer it is a good idea to spray your image gently with a little hairspray to help prevent running (allow this to dry).

Once you have cut out your images then all you have to do is apply Helmar Premium Craft Glue to the underside of the pebble/crystal, smooth out with your finger and then gently place your image (right side against the glue).

Allow about 10 minutes for the glue to dry (and it dries crystal clear!) and then continue to use your new embellishments.

I will be using these pebbles on some Christmas tags and the crystal will be hung on my Christmas tree.

I hope these little projects help or inspire you in some way 🙂
