Step 3

Finishing

Glue the acrylic pieces together. Start with the flowers and attach them to the green acrylic. Then a glue the green and after that the brown acrylic to the front side of the TroGlass Clear. Finally, place it in the foot part.
The Aluminium tag fits over the engraving on the bottom part, and will be partially held by the brown acrylic.
