Try Aleenes Jewel-It. Michaels usually has it. You will have to read to find the one that is for fabric and hard to hold items.

I've always found that Bison kiit glue works for everything here. I can glue anything with this glue and it sticks.

I am a fan of E6000 glue. I find it to be less expensive and just as good as other products.

Post back your projects!!

2 part epoxy works on everything and I reuse a plastic egg carton and wooden coffee stirrers to mix it up. Very easy to mix and dries clear within minutes.

Mix up small batches for 2 or 3 shells at a time so not to waste the glue.
