    (4) 0.1 oz. packets unflavored gelatin
    1 tbs Vanilla extract

Start by bringing the vinegar to the boil in a pan.
Add the gelatin and stir until it is dissolved.
Add the vanilla extract and stir until well mixed.
Whilst still warm brush a thin layer onto the back of an envelope flap. Set it aside and allow it to dry.

To stick the envelope moisten and press it closed.

Store unused mix in a airtight container and to re-apply the glue to envelopes warm the mixture in a pan and re-apply it to the envelopes whilst it is still warm.

thanks for this. I'm always making my own and use a glue stick. when I give as a gift I'd like the receiver to be able to 'lick' and stick.

I had no idea this could be made at home. Great use of the word "whilst" by the way. =)
