Bridal wedding docs
I saw these on insta but can't find any info about the maker or wearer.
Has anyone seen these before and has info?
Or any suggestions on how to achieve this look?

What kind of glue do you recommend?
Applying glue is messy, any tips?
Yes, consider using a glue applicator bottle or glue syringe for more precise placement of glue.
What about the beadazzler or hotfix?
The beadazzler uses special stones with metal teeth on the back of a stone that push thru a fabric to hold it on. That really only works with fabric and not solid objects like water sippy cups. Plus glues have gotten good enough glue really is the preferred way now.
Hotfix uses heat to activate glue on the back of the rhinestone. It means you have to buy rhinestones pre-applied with the glue already and so limits your options. And not all fabrics can tolerate the heat used in hotfix.
Where should I get my stones? I want my project to look it’s best.
For maximum sparkle get stones made from glass or crystal. Consider avoiding plastic/resin/acrylic stones, it’s a less optical material and won't sparkle as nicely, but as discussed in the comments of this post there are definitely plenty of projects where plastic stones are the right thing to use.
Forget tiny overpriced bags at the hobby store. Most of us order from Amazon or AliExpress (slow shipping and can be hard to navigate). Alot of people in this sub recommend Etsy shop BlingeeThingee which is well organized and has competitive prices. She set up discount code REDDIT to save $5 off orders of $40 or more not including shipping&tax (we receive no compensation for this)
How can I “seal” my finished project to help hold the stones on?
Anything applied on top of the stones afterwards will dull their appearance and reduce your sparkle. Even "clear" sealers are not really clear and will reduce the sparkle of your project. A project should rely on the glue you used to set the stones to hold them in place. Good gluing will hold stones better than a sealer would ever help.

Hi hi you have probably seen me post many times😭. But I swear this is my last time mentioning this. So in the first photo I had an amazing Reddit user help me with a rhinestone design for this top I was going to buy. But the moment I was about to purchase I read many reviews and they complained how there is no boning for the top chest area. When wearing it, it separate and sometimes folds. So now as much as I love this I have to find another red top similar to this first photo. I have three other red corset I found which one will be good to rhinestone and where to a all day and night concert please🥹and other advice even if it’s to help with first photo will be appreciated please❤️

Wanted to shine a little brighter at the gym
r/Rhinestoning • u/8ozofPineapple • 1d ago
Took about 18 hours and 1500ish ss16 and ss12 Precosia stones.
Colors are emerald, emerald AB, green tourmaline/AB, peridot/AB.
This was my first ever rhinestone project and jeez you guys are a dedicated bunch! I had fun but it was A LOT of work.
r/Rhinestoning • u/111_peepsgrl • 1d ago
I would love to hear any feedback or advice from anyone. I have wanted to rhinestone something for a long time and never did and finally tried. Any tips or advice is gladly welcome. What glue do you guys use? I worked with E6000 because I seen a lot of people using that, but I don’t think I love it. For some reason my gallery isn’t loading for the original video. I wanted to post but this is the best I can post for now.

This waterfall cape for a nature costume. 6 months total to create

Me again! Here’s another update. I’ve been through an entire 2k count of jet black rhinestones, 1 tube of B-7000 0.5fl oz glue and a wax pencil picker upper thing that I can’t remember the technical name of. About 12 hours of work at this point give or take.

May go back and do the hands and slippers as planned. Working on the red one currently and next is green.

I made this ghostie out of casting powder and it sat boring and undecorated for like a month before I decided she needed to sparkle. So happy with how it turned out! Forgive the background noise, it's my extractor fan. I made a version with music instead but I forgot to save a copy without the tiktok info and wasn't sure if that was ok to share.

Hey yall.. brand new to this community and needing some advice. I've done a couple shirts where ive glued rhinestones to the sublimination part of the t-shirt words with brand new E6000 tubes of glue. Turned out great however after a couple wears/washes, they've either fallen off or can just rub them off. One of them was so bad I ended up just completely rubbing the glue fully off and you'd never known otherwise.. Is there a better glue to use? This can't just be a me problem as I notice some other posts here have included/used the E6000. And please please don't tell me not to wash these items either.. theres no way we're meant to keep these delicately pristine... 😩😩
Editing to add: the E6000 has also turned yellow/goldish color as time passed..

I originally started with rhinestone sunglasses but I was getting done with them too quickly, so I moved on to picture frames. I use b7000 with a precision tip, and a variety of different kinds of rhinestones.

My Aunt Billie is battling cancer. She asked for a bedazzled hat for her lil bald noggin. I think it describes her perfectly.
