FAQs
What is the size of the finished artwork?
The finished design template measures 21 x 28cm.
Is this kit suitable for young children?
Due to the inclusion of many small, sharp push pins, this kit is not intended for young children and should be used under adult supervision.
Do I need to provide my own glue?
No, the kit uses push pins to hold the sequins in place, so no glue is required.
Can I reuse the pins if I make a mistake?
Yes, you can carefully remove a pin if you place it incorrectly and move it to the right spot.
How long does it take to complete the Puffins kit?
Completion time varies by individual, but as it is a detailed craft project, it is designed to be enjoyed over several sessions.
Troubleshooting
Pin is not holding the sequin securely in the base.
Ensure you are pushing the pin directly straight into the polystyrene foam rather than at an angle.
Sequins are spilling or difficult to handle.
Use a small tray or a muffin tin to separate sequin colors before you begin, which prevents mixing and makes them easier to grab.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your kit is straightforward: clear a dedicated space, verify all components are present, and ensure you have a comfortable chair to work from. To care for your finished masterpiece, keep it away from direct, harsh sunlight for extended periods to prevent potential fading of the sequin finish. If dust accumulates, use a very soft-bristled brush or a light blast of compressed air to clean between the sequins without dislodging the pins. When storing unfinished projects, keep the polystyrene base horizontal to ensure no pins shift or fall out.
