I would not combine the wax with glue. Elmer's is water soluable, so it may not be the best choice for this project. 3 in 1 glue or E6000 may be a better choice.

Depends upon the material of the skull. With adhesives, you have to apply the beads quickly and dry with a heating tool. However, it doesn't always work, especially on round surfaces. If the skull is foam, I recommend using pins.
Good luck and don't let your head pop off!
