Doing my best for Him: Make your own glue?

Make your own glue?

As you know I am gluing glass pieces together for my garden art. I have been hoping I am using the correct adhesive. I decided to do an Internet search to find out which glue would be the best to glue glass to glass and also be waterproof.
I came across this site that said you could actually make your own waterproof glass glue. What? I have been paying big bucks for glue.
Everyone knows how to make paste, flour and water, but glue, real glue? I am intrigued. The ingredients are simple. Unflavored gelatin (I buy this in bulk) water,(I have that), skim milk, (easy enough) and oil of clove for a preservative. Wow, are they serious?
So right now I am making waterproof glass glue. If this works I am gonna be so happy. If it doesn't, I am not out much.
If you are interested in making your own waterproof glass glue, go to this web site and check it out for your self.

Doin My Best For Him Blog

The views expressed on this blog are my own. They are not always politically correct and sometimes not even gramically correct. But they are my views and in this country I still have the right to express them. If you do not agree with me that's ok. I will not publish nasty comments or comments I feel are trying to start arguments.

I write this blog mainly for my own satisfaction.

I also wanted a place to put my recipes as I find/use them that would be accessable to me and my daughters.

If you do not like my blog or what I say then find one that you can enjoy.

I love comments as long as they are nice.

My Statement of Faith

I believe that God is the creator of all. I believe that His son Jesus came to earth to live, die and be resurrected for our sins if we accept that free gift. I won't water down my faith or accept half truths to please people. I believe the authorized King James Bible is the Holy word of God and that other versions are fakes written and published by apostates. I prefer to sit only under teaching that is taught from the authorized King James and no other version. I believe Jesus is the only way to heaven. I believe in the trinity. I believe our Lord is comming soon.
