Step 1
Prepare Your Workspace
For this project you are going to need a large flat, well-lit area to neatly spread out your tools so that everything is in easy reach for the rhinestone embellishment and so that you can leave it to dry without risk of disturbance.
Step 2
Prepare the glue
Fill the Syringe with enough SuperTite Fusion Tack Glue for your project, be careful to not take more glue than you need. The easiest way to do this is to remove the plunger from the back of the syringe and then slowly squeeze the glue into the tube, so that the glue gently runs down one side without reaching the opening at the other end. It is important that air can pass out the other end without affecting the glue inside at this stage. Then reinsert the plunger as carefully as you can – you will face resistance because the seal needs to be airtight, the plunger is successfully reattached when you hear it pop into place.
Step 3
Guard against air bubbles in the glue syringe
Once the plunger is securely back in, you are likely to have a section of air inside the syringe. To fix this simply hold the syringe vertically so that the glue slides down away from the opening at the top and gently push on the plunger, pushing the air out until there is only glue left inside. You can then attach the needle tip, completing the syringe.
Step 4
Apply the glue
Use the loaded syringe to squeeze out tiny dots of glue across the surface of the clutch bag wherever you wish to place a crystal. Be careful to not apply too much, otherwise you will risk the glue squishing up around the crystal when you press it down onto the glue and this can hinder the final sparkle. When embellishing onto fabric it’s worth being aware of how absorbent the fabric is, you might find you need slightly more glue than you expect.
Step 5
Place the crystals
Use the Wax Picker Pen to gently place the Swarovski Crystals onto the glue. Be sure to make full use of the different sizes available on our website and don’t be afraid to combine different colours and shapes to best suit your ensemble. We chose to do a design that takes inspiration from blossom flowers in a loose, swirling asymmetrical design.
STEP 6
Let the glue dry
Allow the glue to dry overnight, once the glue is safely dry it is ready to wear and is waterproof so if you find yourself dealing in bad weather you won’t have to worry about crystals falling off!
