Hi Maria. Enjoyed your video. Just wanted to say I use Aleen's "tacky" glue same as your Elmer's and by "feel". Instead of 'dunking' the object in, I dab the glue mixture on with a flat tip paint brush. Only other difference is I use wax paper instead of aluminum foil. I do turn over too, but don't usually turn over when drying. Just let it dry and peel. I don't use black tatting thread to so that might make a difference in the appearance of the glue too. Thanks for taking the time to make the video. I'm sure it will help a lot of beginner tatters!
Thank you for your excellent videos, so clear and just the right speed! I love your creative jewellery! I prefer to use thinner glue (more diluted) and repeat the application a second time, with a small paintbrush. There is less chance of getting globs of white glue this way. Also it's good to warn people that light colours will appear darker after stiffening with glue.
you all probably dont care but does any of you know of a trick to log back into an Instagram account?? I somehow forgot the account password. I appreciate any tips you can offer me
I tried the Joann store brand clear, no-run glue mixed with water and it worked great. I used your dunking and placing on foil method. I wouldn’t put on waxed or parchment paper as someone suggested, it might stick? This was my first try at stiffening a tatted project, and I am very new tatting. My thread was a medium violet color and I think clear glue could be great for dark thread. I’ll keep experimenting!
Forgot to add it you have real fancy design that wants to turn of not stay in place put wax paper under and then use pins to get it the way you want and let it dry
can you used clear nail Polish? can I request can you please make simple earings for the teens? just to show how you wrap the cord to the needle and what is look like at the of the needle end b4 you start. thank you so much. 💕
+Catherine Lane I have never use nail polish so I am not sure if you can use that. Feel free to visit my channel "Maria Papia" I have a "earrings" section, you might find a video on some earrings there. If you don't see some you like let me know and I might be able to make a new tutorial.

Sound good! Thank you for the info
Just brush them with permanent clear or clear nail polish then you would not have to wipe it off and less mess
Does this work for anything you want to stiffen?

Very good tip! Thank you!
Thank you for these tips!!!
+offthehook4u you are welcome
Would it be the same procedure with metallic yarn? I have some things tatted with 3 ply metallic thread and I'd like to stiffen it up
I think it will work
What about the metal balls on the earring? Does it get dull from the glue?
The glue dries clear but you can always starch the glue off from the beads 😊

In the sewing sections of most walmart stores there are stiffeners you can use . Also starch will work you just have to mix it like the glue.
I like your video, but the camera angle is a little off...
If you make it a little thinner, the item will just take longer to dry, but will be less of a chance of glue globs.....
+Becky Shock in the past I have done it thinner and my earrings don't stay as hard as I like them to be. Thank you for the tip

what if we washed it ma'am? would it get back to normal or be soft again?
Yes it will get soft again because the glue will get washed out 🙂
@@MariaPapia in that case, we will put glue again to make it stiff, thanks ma'am
Hi maria I was waiting for this. Thankyou very much really appreciate. Also always your explanations are great. tks.
+LAUREEN SAMANKA 😄
Are the beads still shiny?
Yes
Can we use any glue to stiffen the tatting earring ?
I haven't use other glues
Instead of this glue can we use mod podge
I'm not sure I never used mod podge
is it bard to get the glue off the beads?
You could probably just scratch the glue off the beads
Plisss. Make your ds more tight.
would MOD podge work better?
+Rubel Todman I never tried that. If you try it let me know if it work 😉
Mod Podge is actually the same mixture of white glue and water, so yes, just use a little and water down some so the glue isn’t so thick
@@connieblankley3268 can U use mod podge that says paper on the label???
s
hi can u do a tutorial for those earrings ❤your tutorials
I will keep it in mind
👏
What to do if your glue smells?
Maybe get a new glue. I haven't come across a glue that smells bad
@@MariaPapia no not the bad smell , the glue smell
Lol sorry.... Once the glue dries there is no smell
