What is the best type of adhesive to use to assemble fans? I want something that will not show but will be sturdy. I have ordered this template from Etsy and plan to print at home on cardstock.

Following. I received my DIY fans from Etsy recently and am in the process of figuring out the best glue to use!

I actually found fans that come assembled and all I have to do is print the font and pictures on them.

I also mostly concerned about them sticking to the sticks. I don't want them to come flying off when used.

I made mine about a month ago, and they are still perfectly secure. I printed mine on 8.5x11 cardstock and folded them in half rather than using separate pieces. I used a hot glue gun for the sticks (both sides) and double sided tape along each side including the folded edge (makes it perfectly flat). I used a corner punch to round the corners. The tape worked perfectly, and the glue worked super well and isn't lumpy or anything. They are very sturdy

Thanks! I love the good ol glue gun but was afraid of lumps. I will definitely try it for the stick. I've got double sided tape left from the invites so hopefully I am set.
