craftgrrl | Prototype hairpins (Reply)

{ First off, let me apologize for the not so great photo. It was dark when I took it & my Photoshop-fu is way off tonight. }

Here are some hairpins I'm working on. These are the prototypes for what I hope will be some really nice hairpins.

I have a few questions though, which I'll just type out in list form for organizational purposes.

1) I ran out of E6000 & used this very liquidy glue called Loctite 404 (which resulted in me getting a ton on my fingers and nearly glueing them together. haha!). Have any of you used it before? Is it as strong / strudy as E6000? I know time will tell, but I'm curious to know if anyone else has used it and enjoyed the results.
2) If you've never used it, what glue would you recommend? I've used E6000 before, but the fumes are KILLER and I have four dogs to worry about when it comes to thing like that. It's kind of a hassel to have to go sit on the drive way anytime I want to glue something.
3) What do you think of 'em? =) If you couldn't make them yourself would you purchase them (I'm not trying to sell them here, I'm just curious as to whether there's a market for these types of hairpins)? Are they aesthetically pleasing? Etc.

Thanks in advance for any response!
