"A couple of safety precautions to think about. One, the glue that we're working with is toxic. You do want to open your windows, have plenty of ventilation. Turn on a fan if you can. You don't want to inhale the fumes. If you start feeling dizzy, nauseous, or any of those things, get up right away. Go outside, get some fresh air. If you can actually glue outside, that would be the best thing to do. If you have a garage or something like that. That's always great to just take the whole thing outside. Also, we are going to be using wire cutters. If you're using jewelry, you're going to be cutting off the backs, pins, or whatever. Be careful because it's sharp. Also, you don't want to pinch your hand in between on the back side of this. Just be really careful. If you want to use gloves, that's not a bad idea either. If you have pets or children around, just try to keep it up off the ground so they can't get into it."
