What materials are the mosaic pieces made of?

Are the adhesive hooks reusable?

Troubleshooting

Mosaic pieces not sticking well.

Ensure the surface of the design board is clean and dry. Press each mosaic piece down firmly for at least 10 seconds to ensure proper adhesion.

Child is struggling with placing small pieces.

Encourage the child to take breaks. For younger children within the age range, adult supervision and assistance with initial placements can be helpful. Focus on the process rather than perfection.

Missing mosaic pieces.

Carefully check all packaging materials. If pieces are still missing, contact customer support for assistance, referencing the product model number J07961.

Adhesive hooks not holding the artwork.

Ensure the surface where the hook is being applied is clean, dry, and smooth. Press the hook firmly in place and allow the adhesive to set for a few minutes before hanging.
