HOMEMADE GLUE

ingredients: 
Makes 7 5/8 ounces
3/4 cup water
2 Tablespoons corn syrup
1 teaspoon white vinegar
2 tablespoons corn starch
3/4 cups cold water





1. Heat 3/4 cup of water, 1 teaspoon of vinegar, and 2 tablespoons of corn syrup...until boiling.





2. Meanwhile, mix the other 3/4 cup of water and 2 tablespoons of corn starch together in a separate bowl until well-mixed.

3. Slowly add the corn starch mixture to the corn syrup/vinegar mixture. Stir continuously until boiling. Once it starts boiling, stir for exactly 1 more minute.

4. Remove from heat and cool.

Immediately after removing from the heat, it will be a pretty thin liquid
…but after sitting for 10 minutes, it will thicken up.





5. Use a funnel to pour into an empty container. I used an old glue bottle that I rinsed and reused. Let it sit overnight before using




This is what it looks like…slightly clearer than normal Elmer’s glue. And it seems to really work well!
