Step 1

First, remove the back from your shadow box and lay it on your working surface. Set the rest of the shadow box aside for now. You won’t need it again until you re-assemble everything later.

Step 2

Next, use the pins that come included with your shadow box to fasten your photo to the back.

Step 3

Add some meaningful memorabilia! Just a dab of hot glue to the back of each piece and stick them to the shadow box’s back, next to your photo.
TIP: If you’d like to make sure your memorabilia won’t budge, you can also use a few additional straight pins to fasten it to the back.
