Glitter glue is an essential ingredient for all sorts of crafters. From Christmas decorations to scrapbook pages, to greeting cards, it’s been the go-to for everything creative. There are a myriad of possibilities when it comes down with glitter glue.

Like the name suggests, glitter glue is a form of glitter that has been suspended within liquid glue. Since glitter is suspended in the glue carrier, items such as Stickles as well as Nuvo Drops may be opaque or translucent.

It is available in plastic bottles that come in various colors. The bottles typically contain nozzle tips with small diameters which allow you to obtain the exact amount of product that you require.

Smaller bottles are available of the glue like Stickles along with the larger glitter glues that look like the ones from Elmer’s. I have found that larger bottles have a smaller quantity of glitter inside the glue. But, every glue is useful, depending on the application and product you’re applying it to.

Elmer’s glitter glue can be washed and is not recommended to use on photographs or unpainted metal submerged surfaces, or heated surfaces.

Glitter glue is simple (and secure) to apply on a wide range of materials, including chipboard, paper, wood canvas, and many more!

There are also glitter tubes glue available in sets. These tubes come with small nozzles that are attached to them.

You can also buy glitter glue with larger sizes. These bottles come with bigger nozzles, but they are priced more per ounce.

Glitter glue is available in a wet form and glitter glue sticks that you can put with your craft glue gun

If you are using glitter glue that has transparent white surfaces, my preferred idea is to apply a dab on over the surface with a small amount of glitter glue and then dry. This way, you’ll be able to see what the color appears like after drying.

Glitter Drying Time of Glue

Glitter glues, actually, require some drying time. Based on the humidity of your work area and the thickness of the glitter glue could be as long as for a night.

Even if you’re attracted to use the heating gun to speed up the process avoid doing. A lot of the heat needed to dry quickly Stickles and Nuvo Drops can cause the glitter to burn. The same thing can lead to bubbling in the glue carrier. Worst case scenario, you might burn your project.
