ldianab asked:

I have started embellishing t-shirts by sewing beads/sequins on them. What is the best way to do this so that they do not come loose after repeated washings? Can I sew them and glue them for extra strength? If so, does anyone have a particular glue that they can recommend? Or is there maybe some kind of wonder-under type product that I can iron on the back to hold the stitching in place?? Any help on this subject is greatly appreciated!!

I inherited quite a few strings of beads from my grandmother. In some cases, the beads are glued onto the string. I'd like to be able to reuse the beads. Does anyone have any suggestions for how I might be able to dissolve the glue, or otherwise remove the beads from the string?
