Elmer’s Glue – “The Peel”

By Alexis Velez

9 years ago

When I was in grade school or hanging at home with my school supplies and there was a bottle of Elmer’s around, I would squeeze it onto the palm of my hand, spread it around, wait for it to dry and peel it off. I am not sure what my obsession rather, every kids obsession was with doing this, but it was a form of childhood entertainment. I loved seeing my finger and palm prints. The goal, for me, was to peel the piece of dried glue in one whole piece, hoping it wouldn’t break in the process. Oh the challenges we put ourselves through! So nostalgic and fun.
