BRAINSTORMING · CUTOUT ICONS

What if you could hear paper? That’s what happens with this lightning bolt. Not that you will be able to hear Bowie’s Aladdin Sane album, mind you –we still don’t incorporate music to paper. But it will surely inspire the receiving end of this gift to look it up and play it while the glue dries.

Assembling

Set aside some time; it’s worth it.

Suitable glues:

• Liquid glue
• Liquid silicone (it dries more slowly, giving room to adjust the attachment points properly)
• Double-sided tapes for crafts (for skilled hands. It’s clean but allows only one chance)
• Or a combination of all of the above!

Be precise with the quantities. Use glues with small dispensers or a thin glue stick.

Have alcohol at hand. If it’s the kind you find in the pharmacy, your fingers will appreciate it. It may become a fun but challenging activity if it’s the drinking kind.
