    Securing Rhinestones to Fabric
    Hi all,

    I was just wodering if someone could give me some advice on how to secure rhinestones to a piece of clothing. I made a top and I have added some rhinestone embellishments to it, I used a hot glue gun to stick them on which I have done in the past and it usually works well enough, however this top is for a particular event and I would like to find something that will secure them all that much more just in case. Are there any sorts of protective sprays available for this purpose or would I be able to get away with doing a sort of PVA mixed with water or fabric glue watered down to help keep the rhinestones stuck on really well? Any advice would be great, any ideas for substitutes would be awesome to. I have just over a week to find a solution so help asap would be really appreciated.

    Thanks heaps for the help guys! :D

    I don't know what kind of glue to use. There is a tool it looks like a wood burner but has a end just for rhinestones. The tool heats up the glue on the nback of the stone and then you apply it right to the shirt. Looks real easy. I hope this helps , since you have a week until you need it.
