    Bookbinding or Leather Glue

    List of Ingredients





    1 packet (1/4 ounce) unflavoured gelatin
    3 tbls. boiling water
    1 tbls. vinegar
    1 tsp. glycerine

    Recipe




    1. In a pan, add gelatin to boiling water. Stir until gelatin is completely dissolved.

    2. Add vinegar and glycerine. Stir until well mixed.

    Makes about 1/3 cup. For larger projects, double the recipe.

    How to use it: While the glue is still warm, apply a thin layer with a brush. This waterproof glue is excellent for binding leather to leather.

    It also makes a good flexible glue for use on paper, or for gluing cloth to cardboard for making notebook binders or scrapbooks.

    Stored in a tightly capped plastic or glass jar, this glue will keep for several months. It will gel in the bottle after a few days. Warm bottle in hot water to reuse glue.
