To begin working, open up the shadow box and remove the board. Then, organize the letters into the phrase you would like to use and carefully measure it out onto your shadow box board. You don’t have to use this particular phrase, but this is the one we felt fit the best. Here are some other fun phrases you can use:

My Daddy is my Hero.

My Dad will always be my Hero.

I have a Hero, I call him Dad.

Start gluing your little heart out! Make sure to only use a pea-sized dot on each letter and superhero to ensure the glue doesn’t seep from the sides.

Keep the ruler close so you can double-check your measurements as you’re gluing.

Keep gluing!

…just keep gluing.

After you’re done gluing, place the board back into the shadow box and carefully close it.
