How to Attach Crystals to Flat Leather Bands

by Eunice

I have been asked to make beaded/crystal brow bands for horses, but I am not sure what the best way to attach them is? I have tried gluing but the brow bands are flat and smooth.

What is the best glue to use?

Strong Glue for Crystals
by: Christine

I'm not sure what a brow band is - what material are we talking about? Leather?

Without knowing what you are gluing them onto, I can't definitively say, but E-6000 (available at craft stores and beading stores) works pretty well to glue most anything.

If that doesn't work for you, try some 2-part epoxy from the hardware store (come in a double-syringe type tube).
