HELP - Jewelry Box Liner
I have seen a lot of nice jewelry box postings here. Anyone have favorite
ways of installing the velvet lining? I have read about several options including: - self adhesive velvet - dress quality velvet glued in (apparently preferred by some high end builders) - Mounting velvet to card stock and inserting the cards below the dividers Also any web sources for making the velvet-covered ring pegs or ring slots. I especially want to make sure I am using the proper adhesives. Got momma's jewelry box in process but I thought you guys might have best ways to make it pretty. Thank you RonB |

I've tried all three and the dress quality velvet definitely looks best
although it is a pain working with. Spray adhesive and gluing it to card stock seemed to be the best way to go. Lee Valley has some of the self adhesive velvet but they seem to be dropping it and only have a few colours left. Rick RonB wrote: I have seen a lot of nice jewelry box postings here.

Rick:
What kind of spray adhesive do you use? I have some of the 3M general purpose but wasn't sure if it would hold. Thanks Ron "RKG" wrote in message ...

The local home hardware here had loctite so I used it to glue the velvet
to the card then used wood glue to glue the card to the drawer. Seems to have held for my grandaughters for a year now anyway. Rick RonB wrote: Rick: What kind of spray adhesive do you use?

I just use spray on contact cement, just a light coat on both parts and let it set as per directions. As for the ring holders, if you have an independent jewelry maker in your area ask him/her where they get the foam backed velvet inserts for their display cases. If your in southern Ontario around Toronto I can try and find the place I used for that stuff. Good luck Jim |

I liked the self stick velvet from Rockler, Was very easy to apply, looks
good. I did 3 boxes 2 years ago and only complaint was the cost. Knowing how I applied the self stick, if I did it again I would use a spray adhesive and velvet or satin, next time, jus to save money Ken "RonB" wrote in message news:djivd.95958$EZ.82746@okepread07...

It's not exactly an on-line source, but the current issue of Woodcraft
Magazine has a how-to article on this process. Lee -- To e-mail, replace "bucketofspam" with "dleegordon" |
