3. slide uprights into the baseplates ferrule pin all the way (do not force upright down onto ferrule pin all the way if they don’t fit, only force down 50% if tight
4. attach crossbars between (2) uprights slots, and make sure the crossbar is in the slot all the way (do this for all crossbar sections)
5. continue by gently laying (4) flower wall pieces on a clean flat surface with the backcloth side facing up and flowers facing down, (moving the wall may cause settling resulting in small petals or loose strands on the floor that can easily be vacuumed), have at the bottom of the stands with (4) pieces going across, and make sure the pocket on the flower garland is at the top
6. take your crossbar off the backdrop and slide (1) flower garland lengthwise into the pole pocket, repeat this step 3 more times until all flower garlands are hanging from the crossbar
7. adjust the flower garlands so they are straight, and gently pull the flower garland pocket to cover any hardware (edges of upright & all of crossbar)
8. now slowly raise both uprights, until the flower garland is not touching the ground
9. next tie the backcloth area together using only bow ties and not knots, also tie the edges of the garlands to the verticle upright so the hardware is hidden
10. finally, adjust the flower garland to give more fullness to your flower wall
