Step 1: Prepare the Surface

Before gluing or framing, make sure your puzzle is flat and dust-free. Slide a thin board or paper under it carefully to move it without breaking pieces apart.

Step 2: Choose the Right Backing

Use a sturdy foam board or cardboard slightly larger than your puzzle. It gives stability and helps during gluing and framing.

Step 3: Fix the Puzzle

You can use puzzle glue, adhesive sheets, or transparent film. Apply gently with a soft brush or sponge, ensuring even coverage. Let it dry completely before handling.

Step 4: Select a Frame

Pick a frame that matches your puzzle’s theme—natural wood for traditional art, black or white for modern designs. Many Japanese puzzles follow unique sizes, so measure carefully before purchasing.

Step 5: Display with Care

Hang your framed puzzle away from direct sunlight to avoid fading. Keep it dry and clean, and consider rotating displays to highlight different pieces through the seasons.
