Adhesives

Many types of glue are acceptable, except (1) the isocyanate glues (e.g., instant adhesives), (2) any glue containing acetone, and (3) hot glue. There are several brands of glue that are specifically formulated for bonding rhinestones to fabric. Some of the more common brand names that we carry are Beacon Gem-Tac, E6000, and Aleene's Jewel-It. Other fabric glues also work. We offer to you Beacon Fabri-Tac, Bond Fabric Glue Washable, Aleene's Flexible Strechable, and Aleene's OK To Wash It. We personally prefer Beacon Gem-Tac because it is the least expensive, you only need a small amount, and it dries completely clear, which means no more globs of glue around the rhinestones - just pure shimmer and shine. It's easy to attach rhinestones with adhesives. Please remember to: do a test on a spare piece of fabric, use glue that dries transparent, make sure to cover all edges of the stones to minimize them from peeling off, follow the manufacturer's instructions, always wash with great care and on a low temperature. Metal Settings

Tiffany settings enter from the back of the fabric and crimp over the stone on the front side. We offer them in gold, silver, or black and in several styles and sizes. Rim settings are placed on the front of the fabric, over the stone, and crimped on the back side of the fabric. They are available in gold, silver, or black with engraved or smooth finishes. Several types of metal setting tools are available to fit on your particular application. Sewing

Many flatback rhinestones come with holes in them for attaching by traditional sewing methods. Rhinestones by the yard (eg. banding, chain, fabric) are often sewn on to costumes and apparel. Rhinestone buttons, patches, appliques and transfers are also available. Hot Fix

Flat back costume trim can also be purchased with heat sensitive glue on the back. This special glue melts into the fibers of your fabric forming a permanent bond. These stones can be applied with your household iron or a heat press. Special hand-held applicators, such as the BeJeweler or Kandi Kane, can also be used. These applicators will pick-up round rhinestones, heat them until the glue begins to melt so that you can attach them to your fabric. It's quick, it's clean, and it's easy.

You can glue the rhinestones onto the wine glasses. If you use hot glue it will not last very long, so find an adhesive at the craft store that is specified for adhering things to glass. If you will want to wash them in the dishwasher, make sure you use dishwasher safe glue.
