Vicky Y. [Credit:  Sealight Kelp Sculpture] is a fan of The Original Super Glue  products and recently she kindly shared the following story (and secret) with us! Vicky sculpts kelp and seaweed washed up on the Oregon Shores. She creates artifacts like baskets, figures, and even lamps using the kelp! Her secret ingredient? Super Glue!

Vicky says, “When kelp is wet it is like leather and super glue has an affinity with it. When it is dry kelp feels like wood or plastic and the glue adheres to it just as well. I can work fast, don’t have to hold it in place and shellac sprayed at the end covers any glue bubbles.”

We say… AMAZING!
