How exciting it was to receive such a generous box of goodies from Tombow, full of every type of adhesive imaginiable and to top it off, a set of beautiful markers... can't wait to have a play!
So, last night I went and raided my vinyl LP collection again and thoroughly got busy creating a clock for my daughters room. She is getting to the age where pink and cutesy just aren't her thing anymore so I used the Imaginisce Live Loud collection and created a bright and funky 'ROCK CLOCK'.
And I'm very excited to say that I have found an adhesive that has done something I never imagined would be possible... I glued eyelets standing up on their little edge to the LP and they stuck!!! What did I use? Tombow's super strong bond MONO Metal Liquid Glue that adheres metal and plastic embellishments to paper... well I took it one step further and found that it glues metal embellishments to an old vinyl record!
From farm to you...
WOW!!!! It looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool way to recycle such an important part of our youth! Love the clock, it's just fantastic. Wish I still had some old records kicking around to play with :O)
