Adhesives and sewing elastic

Adhesives and sewing elastic for sewing and crafts

This category includes textile and temporary adhesives as well as sewing elastic for a range of craft projects. These products serve different purposes: adhesives help attach or temporarily hold materials specified by the manufacturer, while sewing elastic is used for stretchable edges and sections of garments, accessories and other sewn items.

Textile and temporary adhesives

When choosing an adhesive, check which materials and fixing method it is designed for. Consider drying time, application, care requirements and the warnings on the packaging. Test the product on a small, inconspicuous area before applying it to the entire item.

How to choose sewing elastic

Choose sewing elastic by width, length, colour and the intended use of the finished item. Consider whether it will be inserted into a casing, sewn directly to the fabric or used in another way specified by the manufacturer. Check the required length and stretch before cutting.

Safe and tidy use

Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Ensure suitable ventilation when using adhesives and keep these products out of children’s reach. Find more project supplies in our craft accessories category.
