Gluing glass to glass

Question

I am trying to make the beautiful flower arrangements that I keep seeing on a lot of posts, My biggest question is what kind of glue to use? There are so many out there that when I went to look last night I was so overly confused, Can anyone help me?

E6000 is my recommendation. But I haven't used the one @Penny H mentions. Would love for oyu to let us all know what you use and how it does!

It depends on where your flowers arrangements will be - inside or out. If they are going to be kept indoors then a hot glue gun (be sure to get clear sticks) can work well since it's easy to work with. If it will be outdoors I would agree with Penny on the silicone glue. Good luck!

Laurie G · Answer

I would go to hardware store and ask which glue is used for mirrors.

Marsha Sevek · Answer

I have used E6000 before. These items were kept inside & have lasted for a long time. I have also used liquid nails on ceramic tiles, but it does not dry clear. locktite does not work - tried that and would not recommend it

Thanks for the answers, but I'm still hoping for more ideas.

I bought Aleene's  7800 adhesive. Now I don't know if I should open and try it or take it back and get the E6000 or GE silicone? Anyone used the product listed that I bought?

Bernice H · Answer

I have done bunches of gluing with GEsilicone ll, clear, my stuff has held up for years outside, winter, summer. you can check my posts on hometalk. I have tried E6000 and it is too runny for me. Silicone gets tacky after a short time so your marbles, dishes etc, don't slip and slide. The big tubes with a caulking gun are cheaper in the long run instead of the small tubes, however I do have a hard time reusing them later, so I make my time worth it. Be sure to share your dish flowers with us. @Empress of Dirt - Melissa has a lot of neato things posted and experience too.

I went out and got the silicone. Here are a few pictures of what I want to do. I hope it turns out well. :{

I noticed that not all of the picture height came out correctly, I tried to fix it, but no luck. Hope everyone gets the idea anyway. Thanks.

The glass fell off the board. Luckily it didn't break! But now I need to know what to use to redo it? I used nail glue and caulk. Any ideas? I really want to redo this, it was a great addition to our backyard.!
