Thanks for the responses. I'll have a look into the Epoxy glue and experiment a bit to see whether that might be the answer.

Have you given Hot Glue any thought? It may not be water proof, but only if it is soaked in water for a time. Casual water should not effect the glue.

Glue for Macrame

I was wondering what type of glue is best to use for macrame created items that would hold up to being gotten wet?

The type of glue I use at the moment is water resistant rather than waterproof, so unfortunately won't stand up to being worn when having a shower/swimming etc. Although it does hold up well being worn if the item remains dry. Is a form of super glue the only type that will work? Or is that not even strong enough to hold under such conditions of showers/swimming?
