  • If you've been on a call with me or seen any of my other videos you may have noticed that I have a wall full of puzzles behind me.
    I often get asked how I glue & mount the puzzles - so I put together this quick video to share with my friends.

    Sometimes the easy solutions are all that's needed. Thanks for posting this. My Robert Bateman puzzle is now well mounted(on painted plywood that I had lying around) and hanging proudly in my dining area.

    This was the best video on the topic, and it was only a minute's length. Thank you, and very helpful!

      That’s because they aren’t trying to make them 11 minutes long for monetization. Straight forward n right to the point. Exactly how they all need to be

    I bought poster board , glue & mounting tape but decided I didnt want that much more glue in my life so I duct taped the puzzle across the entire backside & edges , applied some strips of mounting tape to it and stuck it on the wall & its done .

    If you find a frame that fits the size of the puzzle that prevents the warping. For everyone saying their puzzles are warping etc because I have a puzzle of Troy Aikman I found from when I was a little kid and I’m 26, & it didn’t warp, because it’s in a frame.

    Never thought about using poster board to use for the backing... We just glue both sides of the puzzle and then apply adhesive strips to the back on the sides, corners, and in the middle.

      Are your puzzles starting to warp? Mine are and I'm not doing anything differently.

    Thanks for sharing this tip! Love it! I never thought about using foam core and gluing the puzzle to it! Love your wall. It gives me some ideas! :)

    I recently got into solving puzzles and was looking for a cheaper and easier way to put them on my walls after I apply puzzle glue to them

  • @gregmartin3425
    @gregmartin3425 Před rokem +25

    I did this but my puzzles eventually started warping after about a year. Foamcore is not the best support.

  • @maryellenjones5343
    @maryellenjones5343 Před 3 měsíci

    What a great idea. Thank you for posting this. What glue do you recommend? Is that Elmer's? Also, does wiping the glue with a handkerchief change the surface of the colored side of the puzzle? Would it be better to put the glue on the back of the pieces, then put the poster board over top of it, or is the point to have the diluted glue seep down between the puzzle pieces and stick it to the poster board?

  • @alberta4949

    do u have to put the glue on the front? could you spread the glue on the back side cuz wouldn't it make it looks less sharp with the glue covering it? im a newbie sorry if this is a stupid question

      Water is used to thin the glue to allow it to flow and be brushed onto the puzzle easier.
