What a great story, Shaye! That's exciting. I remember seeing your

earrings at the gathering, and I remember admiring them. :-)

As for glue, either E-6000 or something in an orange box G-something

compound, found in the jewelry aisles at s will work well for you. I'll

see

if I can find that glue so I can give you the exact name.

Today I am out in the driveway hosing off the litter box to clean it (we

dont have a paved driveway) and I am bending over and right in front of my

eyes is my earring!!!! Sort of tucked inbetween two rocks. I could not

beleive my eyes. So I brought it in and cleaned it back up.. Wasnt

scratched or broken but the gold finding came unglued so I just need to fix

that. So I know there are a few jewelry makers on this list. Can you

suggest the best kind of glue to reattach the finding? Its 14K finding and

MOP leaf.... I appreciate the suggestion cuz I dont want to use the wrong

one and loose this earring again! The best jewelry glue.

oh my what a story. I do have a glue or two in mind. I make these

fancy party picks which are silver metal sticks with glass beads. I

use glue that goes through the dishwasher prefectly find and glue

great, like super glue. Actually i think you might have seen the

picks at the show in June we both did. It also glues SUPER quick like

super glue. lol lol more then once i kind of glued my fingers

together with a pick stuck to them. I don't have the name on me but I

can go home one of these days and get it.
