You can print stickers if you want. You’ll need to start by designing them for printable sheets, so if you want to make vinyl stickers that can be printed as one example, see How to Print Vinyl Stickers . Or, for simple sticker paper stickers that are easily printed off, see How to Make Paper Stickers .

Most stickers are made of some form of adhesive material as a backing on a material like vinyl, other plastics or even paper. The coloration on the stickers is usually made by inks. Some stickers may also have a fabric, glitter or embossed component.

Question

Can I get a sticker off if I add glue to something to stick it to?

Community Answer

No. To get a sticker off, you have to peel it off. My trick is to turn a hairdryer on high and point it at the sticker to melt whatever is sticking it to the surface.

Yes, you can! I have tried it and it's super cool! Just seal it with a top coat so the stickers do not fall off.

Question

How can I reglue an old sticker?

Community Answer

Try pointing a hairdryer on high at the sticky part of the sticker. It should melt the sticky part a bit, then you can re-stick it to something. Once it dries, it should stick. If that doesn't work, just apply a little glue to the back and stick it that way.

Question

How do I create a drawing on my computer and then print it?

Community Answer

Use a drawing program (examples: Photoshop, MS Paint, Autodesk sketchbook, Painttool SAI) and save your image to your computer. Then print as usual. Another option is to use public domain images or creative commons images, provided you adhere to the license's end use requirements. You can copy these images to your computer and enhance them if needed (Pixlr is good for this online), then print as required.

Question

Do I need to use vanilla or peppermint extract? Is flavoring optional or not?

Community Answer

Flavoring is optional, it's recommended only because you'll have to lick the paper with the glue in order to make it stick, so flavored glue tastes more pleasant.

Question

How is the paper removed in Method 2?

Community Answer

It can only work if the paper is permeable; once the paper absorbs the water, the small fibers will weaken and can be easily rubbed off.

Question

I have cabochons. I would like to turn them into stickers. Will any of this be a strong enough binding agent?

Community Answer

No, this glue will not be strong enough to hold something heavy like a cabochon or bead. This glue only works with permeable surfaces. The glue has to soak between the fibers of the paper in order to adhere.

Question

Would a normal printer ink be effective in method number 2?

Community Answer

It depends on the ink the printer normally uses. If it's water resistant, then yes. If it is not, then no because the ink would just dissolve into the water.
