PVA

[Guest]

I have read you can put it in the builders tray - do I need to add water to it?

what are you going to be doing with it? If water doesn't go in with it to begin with, it surely will have to to clean it out. Please don't give that job to me!

 

I can remember taking gloop home in a bucket once, it had a lid on it, but I had to pull up a bit sharpish, and the goo, slopped out of the bucket and over the front seat, but it seemed to have a life of its own and kept on oozing. Then I put it down the drain at home and kept the tap running for ages.

It was something I read on Alistair Bryce Clegg's website. Put some in a tray and if you bang your hands together it makes a snow effect. Just wanted to know if I add water too?

I would say no water, but that's only a guess. I remember reading it on ABC's website too.

If you're able to leave it to dry, you should be able to peel it out rather than wash it.

Ooooh! Peeling PVA......... my secret vice!

 

I think I miss that most now I am no longer in a setting - that satisfying sensation as you pull streamers from around the containers, off the glue spreaders, the plastic craft mats, my fingers.................

I'm having trouble visualising this - in what way does it make a snow effect?

You'll need to scroll down, but it mentions snow from PVA

I've added this one because I thought the cardboard dividers was fab
