A little Halloween treat…

Filed Under Gluers Projects | 2 Comments

Hi everyone,

A special early treat for Novemeber’s sample and bonus for you to enjoy. Next month, we’ll be sending Saunders’ mini clipboards out with our sample of the month - and featuring clipboard projects designed by our team of Gluers.

Gluer Jessica surprised me and is treating us to a Halloween-themed clipboard, so I’m posting it today in time for the holiday.

I decided to make a beautiful, fun Halloween themed clipboard. The supplies I used were: scissors, the clipboard, approximately 2 inches each of 5 different black, white & orange ribbon, 1/2 a sheet of orange cardstock, spider stickers, a sanding stick and my Uhu glue runner.

I started by tracing my clipboard on the cardstock to get an exact measure of the size. Then I cut out the cardstock and used my glue runner to glue it down on the clipboard. I had to cut it out at the top a little bit to make it fit around the clip. Then I sanded around the edges of the cardstock to make it smooth. Then, I put the spider stickers on the top and bottom. I tied the different kinds of ribbon around the top of the clip on the clipboard. And, voila! Finished product. I love how it turned out, and it’s hanging on my wall right now. Perfect for clipping up to do lists or grocery lists, or whatever you need to. More details at Jessica’s blog.

Hope everyone has a wonderful Halloween and stay tuned for more Gluer clipboard projects and November’s sample giveaway in the coming weeks!

It’s UHU Holiday Card Time already!

I am always surprised (and a bit dismayed, I admit) to see Christmas decor hit the store shelves before the Trick-or-Treaters have been around, but I know that for those of you who make your holiday cards - you can’t start early enough. So with that in mind, we’re going to feature some great card ideas from our Gluers over the next couple months, amidst other projects and samples, to showcase the many uses of UHU and some wonderful card ideas you can try out as you gear up for the holiday season.

Here are two wonderful ideas from UHU Gluer Maggie, with links to the full instructions. Enjoy!
