Troubleshooting
Foam squares or diamantés not sticking well.
Ensure the surface of the picture card is clean and dry. Avoid touching the adhesive side of the pieces. If adhesive is compromised, it may not re-stick effectively.
Difficulty placing small pieces accurately.
For younger children, use tweezers or a pencil with a slightly sticky tip to pick up and place small pieces. Adult supervision can provide guidance on precise placement.
Running out of a specific color/number of pieces.
The kit is designed with sufficient quantities. Double-check that all pieces are accounted for and used only in their designated numbered areas. If a piece is lost, creative substitution with similar craft materials can be considered, though it may alter the intended design.
