How To Make Your Own Glue Dots

Making your own glue dots will save you a lot of money


So who does not like to save money where they can. I know that I do for sure. So today, I am sharing a recipe for DIY glue dots that I hope you will give a try.

Not too many supplies are needed for this project. More than likely, you have most of these supplies in your home or craft space.

Supplies

  • Parchment or waxed paper or an acrylic sheet
  • Tack it over and over glue (made by Aleene's) or SCRA Perfect Best Glue Ever
  • Protective plastic or acrylic container-You can also use an envelope.
  1. Cut a piece of parchment or waxed paper to the size you need to fit in your container.
  2. Drop small beads of glue on your waxed or parchment paper. Make sure you leave enough distance so that your beads have room between them. The glue will spread.
  3. Once you have your sheet full, place it into a protective container/
  4. Let it dry for 24 hours, open to the air.
  5. Place a second piece of parchment or waxed paper over your glue dots once they have dried.

More Tips

  • The dots will dry clear.
  • Make sure if you store them in an envelope that you are extra careful not to squish them.
  • The nice thing is that you can make these in any size that you would like
  • You can also save the long paper from your dots to make these on
