I have had a few fall apart, but only after many years. I think your silicone must have been too old. Its also possible that they have changed the formula since I last made plate flowers. I want to try drilling too, to make much more intricate structures. Good luck!concretenprimroseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12615278788874155439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6337951114734373140.post-15978634007166161562016-08-14T00:01:49.344-04:002016-08-14T00:01:49.344-04:00I had dismal success with the silicone adhesive su...I had dismal success with the silicone adhesive suggested in this post. After trying one or two other glues as well, I gave up and drilled all of mine. You might break a few plates, but it's better that they're broken first, than gluing them together, mounting them, having them fall off and all break!LadyBugVickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08830916429954200791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6337951114734373140.post-73572759715647478792016-07-07T18:10:20.526-04:002016-07-07T18:10:20.526-04:00thank you for sharing that tip :-)thank you for sharing that tip :-)Pamelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03320664154717056851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6337951114734373140.post-42294083656711939902014-04-27T09:00:43.902-04:002014-04-27T09:00:43.902-04:00Unfortunately I have had trouble with Lexel.

I have found that you need to check the date on the silicone and make sure that it is no where near the end date. concretenprimroseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12615278788874155439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6337951114734373140.post-1828597057040382382014-03-11T19:24:42.090-04:002014-03-11T19:24:42.090-04:00Use LEXEL Adhesive, found at Lowes.

I made 30 of these for a fundraiser to raise money for the burn unit here due to 14 kids seriously burned in a fire and all my plates are falling apart. I cleaned them, used the epoxy's you described, plenty of it! How long do you suggest they will have to dry? I did them 7-10 days before my fundraiser, and I hung them all up on the posts, and every few minutes one would drop a cup, or saucer and cup would fall off. It was so embarrasing. stites2006@msn.com for any ones suggestions!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6337951114734373140.post-86524398247622219192012-07-01T19:42:20.981-04:002012-07-01T19:42:20.981-04:00which works best for you: the glass bottle back or...which works best for you: the glass bottle back or the flattened spoon?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6337951114734373140.post-4439299586844429492012-06-20T16:14:31.620-04:002012-06-20T16:14:31.620-04:00awesome site...thanks!awesome site...thanks!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6337951114734373140.post-38446910904715674682012-05-01T09:16:47.631-04:002012-05-01T09:16:47.631-04:00Someone asked how they are holding up.
