Have you completed your puzzle with patience and joy and now want to hang it up as a decoration ? In this article, we'll show you how to glue and frame your finished puzzle – easily and permanently.
1. Preparation – Base & Protection
Carefully place your finished puzzle on a sturdy surface, preferably cardboard or wood. Cover it with parchment paper and press it down with books for a few hours to keep it nice and flat.
2. Gluing puzzles – How it works
Use special puzzle glue (e.g., in a bottle or stick form). Apply the glue evenly to the front of the puzzle, making sure all joints are covered. Then let the puzzle dry for at least 1 hour.
3. Fix the puzzle to the surface
Once the front is dry, you can glue the puzzle to a sturdy backing board (e.g., cardboard, MDF). Use spray adhesive or double-sided tape for extra strength.
4. Hang and frame
Now you can hang the puzzle directly on the wall or fit it in a suitable frame. Flat poster frames without glass are particularly suitable, as this way your image remains fully visible.
