  4. Place a generous amount of E6000 glue into the underside dapped well of the batik blank. Flip over and center on the pattern side of the ornamental design blank. Press into place. If any glue squishes out, use a toothpick or you nail to remove before it dries. Let fully dry.
  5. Place a dab of E6000 onto the glue-on tab of your ring finding. Center on the solid color backside of your ornamental design blank and press into place. Let dry.
  6. All done! Enjoy your fun new ring!
