Went to a WONDERFUL Michelle Zindorf workshop last weekend, and now I'm on the hunt for Aleen's tack it over and over in the Boise Idaho area. Not at Michael's, not at Hobby Lobby, not at Craft Warehouse, not at Joann's. Anyone know where I can get my hands on some of this magic stuff? I think I might actually be ready to start unmounting, if I can find the glue!
i have been looking all over Ohio for it. why don't these stores stock something that would be so profitable for them? anyone have a source for it? Thanks.
i googled it and it appears you can order it from michael's on line. i just want it NOW NOW NOW, lol, so i was hoping some of the gals from my neck of the woods would dial me in.....
I do live in Alberta, but I can purchase it right off the shelf at Michael's. I don't see why your Michael's doesn't stock it on their shelves?? I make all my own mini glue dots with it and they work wonderfully. And 1/1000 of the price of purchasing glue dots.

I don't know why either, darn it, but they don't! I wonder if a LSS would carry it? You'd think if a store sold both the acrylic blocks, and the unmounted rubber stamps, they'd carry the glue, wouldn't ya!
My local AC Moore and Joann's sell it, but not in the scrapbooking/stamping aisle. At AC Moore it's in the woodcraft aisle. At Joann's it's in the general craft/adhesives aisle. Ask a store clerk next time you are at one of those stores where they sell the glues.
I have never been able to find it either. BUT I did find Plaid's Royal Coat Repositionable Paper Adhesive. I've used it on my unmounted stamps and it is WONDERFUL. I got it at Michaels for about $5 for an 8oz bottle. I don't know if you can make glue dots with it or not. That wasn't what I bought it for. I use a 1" foam brush to brush a coat on the back of my unmounted rubber, let it dry and presto - tacky rubber that will cling to acrylic blocks.
I looked all over southern Ohio and the stores do not stock it, because I asked. I finally ordered two bottles online. Will probably have to get more online also.
Ok I live in Idaho also, in the Caldwell/Nampa area and I have seen this in the Nampa Joann's in the past. I am heading to them and Michaels this evening in about five minutes so I will look for it. If I find it do you want me to have them hold it for you?
Ok I put one on hold at the Nampa Michaels. Its under the name Laurie. They put it in the first bin on the top on the right handside at the register closes to the door.
I bought mine at Michael's but it was in the glue section, not the papercraft section. I use it to make my own glue dots and love it. Just reuse the wax paper rolls that your glue dots come on. Roll it up after putting dots on it and let it dry rolled up.
I have not been able to make it out to Nampa yet, hosting a big graduation party at my house this weekend, hublets kids both graduating from BSU this weekend, with honors, I might add! (go Jacqueline and Nathan! whooo hoooo) HOWEVER, I got a phone call from the manager at Craft Warehouse this morning, and he's going to order it, and start stocking it. How cool is THAT!!!

Hello? You didn't look everywhere! I have it in stock at Toyrifix in Smithville!
yep, some Joann's and Michael's carry it, and some don't. In any section. Boise happens to be in the "don't" category.
Ah the joys of living in backwards Idaho. Isnt it weird that the state capital's stores dont carry something like this but the ones that are located in Nampa do.
