I bought a "front loading" shadow box from Hobby Lobby. I'm trying to reassemble it and can't figure it out!

It%26#039;s 10 x 13, black and the label says %26quot;2006 Green Tree Gallery%26quot; from Oklahoma City, OK. The beveled portion of the sides are all out and I can%26#039;t seem to find instructions for assembly anywhere.





I%26#039;m in a jam, b/c it%26#039;s for father%26#039;s day (tomorrow). Help!!!!!!!!!!!|||Lay all the pieces out on a table, and treat it like a puzzle.


You should have (put it in the middle) one big part for the back.


Two the same lengths for the sides, (put one to the left and one to the right of the back) and two the same lengths for top and bottom, (they go above and below the back.)


If all is right now you only have the glass left.


And maybe some metal parts to add the things together.





If you have more pieces, match the lengths to the parts you have worked out, and add them to the outside of the set-up. They can be the decorative finish for the front.





To construct the box, fist try to fit each of the parts and see how they fit together.


If there are metal fittings with screws they are easy to work out, if they do not have screws, look for groves in the wood, to click them in.


If there are no metal pieces and the wood does not fit without help, you will need screw and glue. (If it was meant to be a do it yourself kit you should be given those, otherwise use whatever you have available, (since you are in a hurry.) Wood glue is the better but takes more time to dry.





After you have puzzled out how the box goes together you fit the sides to the back (and each other) fill the box and add the front, and lastly if they are there, the wooden decorative parts.
