Finding projects for our new 2" XXL Glue Dots can be somewhat daunting, so we're here to help! Whether you're new to crafting or if it's in your blood, the projects below are just a few ways you can use XXL Glue Dots.

Remember! Don't reach for the pre-made bows when you're gift wrapping! Grab an XXL Glue Dot and some coordinating crepe paper, tissue paper, or ribbon instead! Replace the pre-made bow with a paper rosette and add a personal touch to your gift wrap! The 2" XXL Glue Dots are big enough to hold ribbon and a gift tag in place!

Or, if you've master the art of paper and fabric rosettes, create a masterpiece of rosettes on canvas! Click on the title or image below to view instructions and supplies.

Do you have punches with different shapes? Using a punch (4-leaf clover punch shown below), punch through an XXL Glue Dot while both backings are attached to the adhesive.  Peel one of the backing pieces off of your new shape and adhere it to a card, a scrapbook page, a flower pot or anything you want to decorate! Press glitter into the new shape and viola! You have an instant decoration!

XXL Glue Dots are super-sized for the jobs that need a lot of adhesive. They are great for heavier materials like wood or metal embellishments, thick cardstock, fabric, or handmade papers.
