Yes, i did some lovely revamp of old laminate chest of drawers etc with flowers cut from wallpaper, i stuck them on using spray mount glue and one huge panel was pasted on with wallpaper paste, but both now are lifting away, what glue do you suggest i try.
it did look SO good, i would hate it all to go array.
thanks for any suggestions offered.

Hi Minnie Pal,
It should work, I find pva glue handy for endless little jobs. No, it wasn't me
I think someone has a similar name to me.

Happy Christmas

You should sand the area you're applying the glue first.

hi, i think the PVA glue is working on the laminate, did it yesterday, and sanded the areas before hand.
unfortunately the edges of the wallpaper became crumpled probably due to heat and the combo of the last attempt, but still a bit of beading around the edge of the side of the laminate chest of drawers where this is happening should solve that and we all shall be happy campers again!!1
thanks
