allstate48 Posted April 15, 2004 Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 I saw a post about making eyes by using hot glue. I tried it, and the shape is good, but they are foggy. Is there different types of glue, or is this the way they are? Thanks Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nova Posted April 15, 2004 Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 Some glue sticks are creamy colored and some are clear. Go to your local craft store or hardware store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coley Posted April 15, 2004 Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 Hell, I am old and I forget where I saw it. The guy that made clear eyes got his glue sticks from Ace hardware. Coley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
