1 packet (1/4 ounce) unflavoured gelatin

1 tbs. vinegar
1 tsp. glycerine

Makes about 1/3 cup. For larger projects, double the recipe.
How to use it: While the glue is still warm, apply a thin layer with a brush. This waterproof glue is excellent for binding leather to leather. It also makes a good flexible glue for use on paper, or for gluing cloth to cardboard for making notebook binders or scrapbooks.
Stored in a tightly capped plastic or glass jar, this glue will keep for several months. It will gel in the bottle after a few days. Warm bottle in hot water to reuse glue.
