Is it damp where you live? That could keep the glue from setting.
We made ornaments with glue and sprinkles last year, on blown eggs. The ones made with craft glue I hung in the oven after it had cooled down a lot. The heat helped set the glue. Can't be very hot in there or you'll bake them and change the color of the egg and sprinkles (don't ask how I know).
The 2nd batch I left the egg's own color to come through, and used super glue and a pin to make swirls and patterns, then added the sprinkles. They dried MUCH faster.

Wow I think I will have to try the superglue thing(after the fire deptment leaves of course, and the smoke clears so I can find that jar of sprinkle), I Hanging them in the oven while cooking pizza was not a good Idea, I should have know something was wrong when the strings started melting, but I figured I could just restring them after the glue was dried. Did you know the plastic sparkles against an electic oven element will catch fire. Oh well live and learn.

These are the ways in which men plot against us. Oh and also messing a project up sooooo unbelievably bad that we say "nevermind honey. I'll do it"
Evil plotters!! ^_^

The barred rocks are really cute!
I know you're not my partner, but if you were I'd be happy.
I can't post pics of my project until 12/1, since DH is dragging me to IL for Thanksgiving....
