Glass Art

[Diamondee]

Hello everyone,

I am going to try to do some glass art.mainly glass flowers and bird baths.I have a question and would like to know a suggestion for a silicon or outdoor glue to use as I will be placing items in the garden so the adhesive needs to be uv resistant. Any ideas? Thanks.

Hi Diamond,
I use the ‘external’ glue you get from Bunnings, play with it a little bit before you do your piece. One has a ‘expandafoam’ reaction to it the other is a liquid that you only need to use a very small amount of. I just googled it, Shelley’s Aquahere.
