Glueing Foil Paper for My Kusudama Ball!

I have tried several types of glues and nothing is sticking to the foil origami paper I have. I've folded my 60 sheets for my kusudama ball and now I am struggling to put it together because the paper won't stick to itself. Any tips? I have tried some dry adhesives and they do work, but I really do prefer liquids. Help!

Hmmm I've had the problem too a few times. What type of glue are you using? And if it's white glue or liquid glue, what's the consistency?

I've tried Aleene's Quick Dry and Aleene's Fast Grab. Also, I've tried a very strong Elmer's glue stick. The Aleene's Fast Grap is my go-to glue for all my paper crafting needs. I was pretty surprised at its complete inability to adhere the foil paper. I thought of using E6000, which is what I use to glue metal when making jewelry...
