How to use

Assemble the border to establish the finished dimensions, then work inward, matching printed details and shapes. Handle pieces on a clean, flat surface; if you plan to display the assembled image, use the poster to position pieces precisely before applying any framing or mounting method.

Usage recommendations

For best results, sort pieces by color and pattern in shallow trays or on a large tabletop to maintain visibility. Keep the A4 poster nearby as a constant reference. To preserve the assembled image, consider using a puzzle glue or having the completed puzzle professionally mounted and framed. Store unused pieces and the poster in the original box to protect artwork and prevent loss.
