Jun. 25th, 2006 04:44 pmI have a ton (something like a dozen, actually) of those old Samsonite traincases and I am (slowly, but surely!) doing makeovers on them.
As a matter of fact, I want to make one for myself for ... my unmentionable toys. ;)
I would like to cover it in vinyl and maribou, eventually making it look like it has been corsetted up, if that makes any sense. Unfotunately, I can't seem to find a way to get the vinyl to stick to the train case... The vinyl is fabric-backed, but that is not helping things out any. :( I even tried out Gorilla Glue, to no avail.
My other issue is the maribou. I want it to stick to the case, but not stick together.
The only part that I *do* have under control is the corsetting part... except that I can't make everything line up straight.
*giggles at herself*
Can anyone help out here? :)
