The difference comes if the wood is exposed to moisture. Elmer's is water soluble and remains soluble after it dries. If your application is never going to get wet, then Elmer's is the way to go. If it will be exposed to moisture, you need something else. In a bathroom Elmer's would probably last long enough to make it to your remodel, but I think you did the right thing in getting something that doesn't deteriorate when it gets wet.

I agree with this, I have glued wood with Elmers plain white and had the wood fail before the glued joint, only exception (again as mentioned above) if it is going to be exposed to moisture.
