ENVELOPE GLUE RECIPE

Ingredients:

3 tablespoons white vinegar
1 envelope unflavoured gelatin
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or flavouring of your choice)
1 teaspoon sugar

directions:

Microwave vinegar in a baby food jar for about 35-45 seconds

(depends on the strength of your microwave). Add gelatin.

flavouring and and sugar. Stir to dissolve gelatin. If the

gelatin doesn't dissolve, put into microwave again for 10 second

intervals until gelatin is dissolved and liquid.

Using a stiff bristle paint brush about 1/2" wide, "paint" the

glue in a very thin layer on the flap of your envelope. When

completely dry, moisten as usual and press flap closed to seal

envelope.

Makes enough for about 25 quarter-fold envelopes.

**note: as this glue is a food product, keep unused glue in the

refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. To re-use the glue, heat in the

microwave on low in 15 second intervals until liquid again.
