Bookbinding Glue: Recipe

Materials:

1 packet (1/4 ounce) unflavored gelatin
3 TBSP boiling water
1 tsp vinegar
1 tsp glycerin

• In a small glass bowl, dissolve the gelatin in the boiling water. Add the vinegar and glycerin and stir.
• To use, apply a thin layer of glue with a brush while it’s still warm.

Store glue in a sealed jar. It will keep for several months and eventually it will begin to gel. When that happens, simply immerse the jar in a pan of warm water to liquify.

This glue can be used for adhering cloth to cardboard, leather to leather or making notebook and scrapbook binders.
