How To Remove Glitter From Your Clothing and Furnishings Using Fabric Glue

You can sprinkle glitter onto fabric glue to stick it to the garment, and you can coat the glitter in turn with a water-and-fabric-glue mixture to give the glitter a protective outer layer. Glitter often flakes off when it brushes against things – so a coating of glue can help freeze the individual particles.

First, dilute the fabric glue a little by adding water. There is no set proportion – but dilute it enough that it is easy to apply with a paintbrush. The mixture should be neither too pasty nor too thin.

Put a newspaper at the back of the fabric on which you want to work. Use a synthetic painting brush to spread, drip, or dab the glue onto the glitter areas. Take care that the glitter doesn't come off. Cover all of the glitter area with this water-and-fabric-glue mixture.
