Awesome! I’ve never thought about making my own stickers, but what a great idea! I’m going to have to try it- thanks for posting how!

I love working with peanut butter! I like making edible play dough, using it to clean stickers off of jars, get gum out of hair, and best of all using it in home made peanut butter cups!!

Hi Melanie,
There are lots of different versions of this one, many of which include unflavored gelatin or vegan options and a combination of other things. The sugar does make a difference in the sticky factor and we found that the flavored version works great and my kiddo, who at 4 still tends to put everything in her mouth, doesn’t end up with a mouth full of grossness in the process.

Thanks for jumping in!

I love to make my own glue for craft projects. Simply to make, easy to use. Earth friendly.

Very clever- alas my boys are too old to be willing to make these ( 17 & 14) and my nephews live too far away- I will send the link to my sister however!
I like to craft with Ice cream as in eat it while crafting!

Great idea and we will be trying this (Loads of magazines to try this on!!). Also, my fave kitchen ingredient is corn starch as well as salt. Salt to make pretty patterns in watercolor and corn starch (when I’m out of liquid starch) for sculpting projects w/ the kids

Question: Why flavoured gelatin? Wouldn’t unflavoured work just as well? Or is the sugar a requirement?
Also, especially if they’re flavoured, I reckon kids would prefer to ‘lick ‘n’ stick’, over using a wet sponge
Um… my favourite is… um… I actually have no idea. Perhaps gelatin is my new favourite!
