- Review Instructions: Refer to the included pictorial instructions or diagrams specific to your flower vase model. These diagrams will guide you through the step-by-step building process.
- Assemble the Base (Vase): Begin by constructing the vase component as shown in the instructions. Ensure all blocks are firmly connected.
- Build the Flowers: Proceed to assemble the individual flower elements and their stems. Pay close attention to the orientation and connection points of each micro block.
- Combine and Arrange: Once the vase and flower components are complete, carefully insert the flower stems into the designated slots in the vase. Arrange the flowers to achieve your desired aesthetic.
- Secure Connections: Throughout the assembly, ensure all self-locking bricks are pressed firmly together to create a stable and durable structure.
5. Display and Use
Once assembled, your Balody Eternal Flower Vase is ready for display. Place it on a stable, flat surface such as a desk, shelf, or windowsill. These decorative pieces are designed to add a touch of creativity and color to any room. They are not intended for functional use with water or real plants.
6. Care and Maintenance
- Cleaning: To clean the blocks, gently wipe them with a soft, dry cloth. For more stubborn dust or dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Storage: If disassembling for storage, keep all blocks in a secure container to prevent loss of small parts.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may cause the plastic colors to fade over time.
7. Troubleshooting
- Missing Pieces: If you find any missing pieces upon opening the package, please contact the seller or retailer for assistance.
- Difficulty Connecting Blocks: Ensure that the blocks are aligned correctly before applying pressure. Some new blocks may require a bit more force to connect initially. If a block is consistently difficult to connect, check for any deformities.
- Unstable Structure: Double-check all connections to ensure every block is firmly seated. Refer to the instructions to verify the correct placement of each component.
