Default Paper Bag Albums

Hi. I am getting ready to do a paper bag album for my brother's baby girl on the way. I have seen lots of cute ones in the gallery. What is the best adhesive to use on these? Is double stick or SNAIL strong enough, or do I need to use tacky strip? Any other tips would be much appreciated. Thanks!!!

Callie

Default Binding It

What are you using to bind it? I have seen metal round clasps that other's have used but can't seem to find them....anyone have any ideas of where to find these metal rings at?

Thanks

I use 3M doublestick tape and it holds great, I use ribbon to bind mine as well.

Walmart carries them in the stationary dept.

Hope you are able to find them.

Thanks, MVS2151

I have been making these paper bag albums and I have been sewing them down the middle to bind them (then I use ribbon and fibers to decorate.) I have been using mono-adhesive, but I have found permanent double stick tape (Scotch brand) works the best so far.
