    Some people use it on their faces as a facemask. Haven't tried it myself, but they claim it works.

    The Elmer's is in place of Biore. Hey, if someone's using it as hair gel, why not? :mrgreen:

    What a unique idea. I'll pass it along to my niece who has spiked hair as well. Thanks!!

    I do all my bindings with school glue. I iron the binding as I go so the glue doesn't get stiff.

    I am teaching my 5 year old granddaughter to piece a quilt and we are using glue to hold everything together and she is getting some nice straight seams. We are using "Elmer's Washable SchoolGlue" Dual Tip Pen and yes everything washes out when you use it. We also iron to set the glue which softens the fabric too.

    Ditto for me. I used Elmers on the last quilt I made & everything turned out fine. It washed out well.

    I use the clear Elmer's school glue. It comes out easily with water. I always use it to make my bindings.
