Step 1: HANG TEMPLATE
Gather materials and tools, and read through instructions.
Using painter’s tape, hang template on wall in the location that you
want to install your Connections collage. Using a bubble level, your
phone level*, or just your eyes, level template to make sure panels will
be straight on your wall. (Remember that sometimes a level reading
can still look unlevel due to irregular walls and trim. Trust your eyes!)
Step back and take a look at your collage location.
Make adjustments to template placement as needed.
TIP: *If you have an iPhone, launch the Compass app on your iPhone. (You may
need to calibrate it by spinning the phone around.) Next, swipe left on the screen
for the level tool. Turn your iPhone on its side or back to use the level.
For other phones, there are several free leveling apps available on GooglePlay.
Alternatively, you can eyeball your template’s levelness, or you can use a real
bubble level.
Step 2: DRILL HOLES
Identify the drill targets on your template. Check your Wall Anchor
packaging for correct drill bit size. Drill a hole in each target location.
Hit the target as closely as you can!

Step 3: INSTALL SCREWS
Tap wall anchors into pilot holes. Install screws into wall anchors
using drill or screwdriver. Walls are not always completely flat, so
tighten and/or loosen the gap between the screw head and the wall to
customize the best fit for your location. Spacing heads 0.125” from the
wall is a good place to start.
