Review for Lapel Sticks

I've had a chance to review Lapel Sticks

(from their website)

Ultimate Accessory for Quilters, Sewers, and Crafters

Temporary non-toxic acid-free fabric adhesive that goes on in seconds and dries clear for Quilting, Sewing, Crafting, and Embroidery - replaces baste stitching, pinning, tapes, spray adhesives, and stabilizers.  No more messy sprays or getting stuck with pins and it won't gum up your needles or machines!  LAPEL Stick is water soluble and safe to use on cottons, wool, polyester, blends, felt, linen, and leather.

Ok, so I wasn't sure what I was going to use this on for a review.

Then it hit me, the items I make the most....

Up Cycled/Re purposed/Recycled Wrapper Coin Purses

I've made and sold a ton of these.

Normally, I would use a regular glue stick to sandwich the "wrapper" between two

pieces of vinyl.  For this A&W coin purse, I used the Lapel Stick.

What a difference it was, it glided along the vinyl so much smoother than a glue stick.

Another factor I have to think about if I'm going to use these more often, is if it will dry clear.

It has to dry clear.  IT DOES!  

I also noticed the wrapper covered in vinyl was easier to turn inside out and wasn't so heavy with glue.

I'm thinking I like these Lapel Sticks.

Now, would you like to try a Lapel Stick?

I am going to give away 2.

Just leave a comment on this post and I'll draw a winner on Friday the 27th.
