How do you sew or glue elastic onto fabric to make a curtain without a sewing machine?

I want to cut slits in the jeans and place some bright colors & designer fabrics in the gaps. I havnt found detailed info on how to do this.

How can I remove dried hot glue from a desk? Having never used a hot glue gun before, I figured letting the excess of one kind of hot glue out before using another would be okay.

What kind of glue should I use to affix the rear-view mirror in my car? I have a '92 ford deathtrap, er, I mean, Explorer, if that matters. The bloody thing just fell off yesterday. Don't tell me expoxy-type glues. They don't stick fast enough, I can't clamp it, and I can't very well sit there for 10 minutes holding the damn thing. I was thinking a hot glue gun. Well, I went to the auto supply. Bought the w/s repair kit. Followed directions EXACTLY. It didn't work. The glue is nothing but superglue and it didn't stick for beans. I think part of the problem is that the "button" is part of the mirror. It's a metal piece that looks like it slides into the mirror, and it was glued in. Should i try soaking the thing in acetone, see if I can get the button out, then try it that way.
