8 Unexpected Uses for Elmer's Glue

If you miss the weirdly satisfying sensation of peeling dried Elmer's glue from the surface of your skin, you can relive this childhood tactile memory by using it to remove splinters from your skin. Simply apply a thin layer of glue to the affected area, wait for it to dry, then peel it off, which will also pull the splinter out.

Other unexpected uses for glue include keeping your shoelaces nice, sealing pruned plants, creating a crackle effect on painted surfaces, and making your own sparkling play goo.
