Finishing:
Weave ends of thread into work using the tapestry needle. Then dip the snowflake into the fabric stiffener and gently ring out the excess. Lay the snowflake down flat onto the foam board and pin into place. Allow to dry overnight. If you have a gas oven, you can place the snowflake in the oven and let the pilot dry it out. I do this and it takes half the time.Design Written in December 1998 Copyright ©1998 by Julie A. Bolduc all rights reserved f103007

Random Quick Tip!
Dispensing 2 Types of GlueSince I make paper beads and sew, I use two different types of glue, washable and non washable. I keep the glue in 2oz bottles that are the same. So in order to be able to tell them apart, when they happen to be close to each other, I wrapped a 5.25" piece of colorfully printed duct tape on each bottle. I have one with Zebra print that I use for All Purpose Glue and the other one has tie dye colored duct tape on it for the washable school glue.
