My Recycled Mixed Media Madness

A few weeks ago I got something amazing in the mail.  E-6000 Spray Adhesive.  At first I was perplexed, but then I read the bottle and it's an indoor, odorless, water soluble spray glue!  Yes, it was the Holy Grail of glues.  I immediately went to town spraying everything I could get my hands on.  This was my first project and I've had to wait to share it with you until the glue was available. I hope you enjoy it!  BTW, I loved mixed media because you never know how it will turn out (at least I never know)  You could use anything you have around for this project! Make sure to share it with me when you're done.  I'd love to see what you make.

Love these!
