    A C in a circle is the copyright sign, @ is shorthand for 'at', the way the ampersand, &, is short for 'et', Latin (& French) for 'and.' Can't help repairing the rose. I was sorry as a kid when I learned philology was no longer a going concern.

    Right but I couldn't type a C in a circle, so this one time I had the at sit in its place. lol

    © Had to do it in a roundabout way: in a Word doc, typed Ctrl+Alt+C (doesn't have to be capital C) then copied & pasted it here. Does not work to do it directly on this page. To make it again, does work to copy & paste the one at the start: ©

    Hi,
    I always use the right hand part of my keyboard to find symbols. Besure the lock light is lit and then press ALT button and the number code. © code 0163 gives £ code 0128 gives€.

    Ah, tried different ways to get it, including that one, but think my mistake was using the numbers at the top rather than the number pad. Just would not work.

    If I had seen this site before now, I would have known.

    There are lots of jewelry glues out there. They dry clear and bond nicely. I'd go to hypo-cement for preference, or E-6000. There's another one, Gemtac, made for rhinestones, but I've never used it. People use hypo-cement for reattaching foiled rhinestones all the time. This isn't my sort of work either, but I do it sometimes.
