Instruction Manual

Lay frame sections FACE
DOWN and position as
shown. Slide something
flat under each corner that you
won’t mind getting glue on
(ex. cardboard, drop cloth).
Most frames include short and
long connectors (a few include
two of the same size). The holes
are the same shape but the interior
hole is deeper for the longer
connectors. Identify connectors now.
If a marker is included, color
the upper edge of all 8 “raw”
edges. This will reduce join
lines at the corners. If no marker is
included this step is not necessary.
ASSEMBLING THE FRAME
Insert connectors into first glued corner starting
with the SHORT connector in the OUTER slot. If you
have a rounded or ornate frame, hold the corner in
your hand as shown. Tap connector lightly with a hammer
until flush. Don’t over hammer. Next, insert the interior,
long connector. If you have three connectors per corner,
hammer in now. Run your hand along front of the frame to
ensure the corner is well-aligned. Adjust if necessary.
Repeat for each corner.
Once all connectors
are in, turn the frame
over by placing your
hands equal distance from
the center of the longer side.
One corner at a
time, lightly apply
glue to one side
and spread a thin coat
evenly. Lay the frame
flat. Align glued ends
together to form first
corner.
Inspect each corner for alignment.
If necessary, maneuver the legs so
there are no gaps at corners and the
surfaces meet evenly. You may have to turn
the frame back over and hammer
connectors fully flush. Within 10 minutes of
application, wipe off any excess glue from
the front of the frame with a damp rag
before glue sets.
