Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Choose a Flat Surface: Select a clean, flat, and sufficiently large surface for assembly. A puzzle mat, large board, or dedicated table is ideal.
- Unpack & Sort: Carefully open the box and empty the pieces. It's recommended to sort the pieces, typically starting with edge pieces to form the border, and then sorting by color or distinct patterns.
- Organize: Use small trays or the box lid to separate sorted pieces, making them easier to access during assembly.
Compatibility
This is a traditional physical jigsaw puzzle and does not have any digital compatibility requirements. It's compatible with your imagination and a love for literature and puzzles.
Care
- Handle Gently: Always handle puzzle pieces gently to prevent bending, tearing, or damage to the artwork.
- Storage: When not actively working on the puzzle, keep pieces contained to prevent loss. The original box is suitable for long-term storage of disassembled pieces.
- Cleaning: If pieces become dusty, gently wipe them with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using water or cleaning solutions, as they may damage the cardboard.
- Preservation (Optional): Once completed, you can permanently preserve your puzzle by applying a specialized puzzle glue to the surface and backing, then framing it as artwork.
