How can wooden carvings be applied?
Carved wooden ornaments can be easily glued onto any wooden or wood-based flat surface. First, sand the back of the ornament and the receiving surface thoroughly, then carefully remove the dust from both. Next, spread a thin, even layer of wood glue on both surfaces and assemble them precisely. Wipe off any excess glue with a damp cloth before it dries to avoid stains. Finally, press the joint together using a clamp or a weight and let it dry, which may take up to 24 hours for the best results.
