DIRECTIONS: Simply start cutting strips 1/2″ longer than the length of the puzzle.  Lay 1 strip at the top edge. The next strip should overlap the first about an eight of an inch.  We usually lay the tape now at the opposite end of the puzzle and work towards the middle.  When the puzzle is completely taped, flip it over and flatten with a rolling pin or wine bottle to push the pieces into the tape.  Trim overhanging tape with sharp scissors.  If there is a tiny bit extra after cutting, just push it up the side of the puzzle edge to hide it!

The puzzle will be very sturdy and can be hung without a frame using double sided pressure mounting tape or velcro tape.  Or, take it to a framer without worry of the puzzle falling apart. You will not need glass over this puzzle, as the velvet-Touch surface is very durable.
