Also, what is the best glue to use for puzzles?If you can, pick up Mod Podge, a dedicated craft glue. As opposed to regular glue, puzzle glue combines an adhesive with a lacquer. It not only holds the puzzle together, it provides a protective gloss finish that dries clear every time.Secondly, should I glue both sides of the puzzle? Gluing one side of your puzzle will hold the pieces together, and gluing either front or back can work for this purposes. However, gluing both sides will provide the greatest stability and prevent pieces from coming loose. Also question is, how do you flip a puzzle to glue? Apply glue to the back of the puzzle and let it dry. Slide the puzzle onto a piece of cardboard. Use the cardboard to flip the puzzle over onto the work table with the back of the puzzle facing up. Spread a thin layer of glue over the back of the puzzle. Let it dry completely.How do you make homemade puzzle glue?To create a high quality puzzle adhesive that is safe to use on the front of the puzzle, mix equal parts white Elmer’s glue and water in a glass container and shake until the consistency is even. There are other ways to create your own glue, including a flour paste.
