Pimp Glass

So because I am cheap, hilariously funny (maybe), and absolutely unapologetically not aware of the gangsta life, I've decided to arts and craft a set of pump cups for my peeps, yo. I have the little gemstones, the tacky glue, and the footed glasses (in gangsta green and pimpin' purple, mind you), but I am having trouble with the tacky glue. It is messy and gets everywhere. Anyone know a way i can get the excess off post-drying without gems falling off?

i'm not sure i even understand what you are making here...

...what are you trying to make?

I am glad I am not the only one who didn't always know what these things are. Here is a link to a site offering their commercial sale. It's a big thing in rap culture, I think.

With my ego, so did I! Now I'm just sad...

You might want to try something like contact cement. The advantage is it dries instantly so there is no slippage. On the down side, it doesn't give you much room to correct errors - once something is on - it's on!

i moved your thread to the creative corner :)

yeah, it's definatley a pop culture thing, all the big rap stars get like these big glasses that they call pimp cups and they get like diamonds and things put on them, they take it pretty seriously...it goes hand in hand with those grills, the fake diamond incrested teeth things.
