Twig and Daisy retailer felt board sets do not have adhesive or hook and loop tape on the back of the pieces. I only use soft felt and it happens to contain a little bit of magic. Felt sticks to felt even on a vertical surface which is really cool! Adding hook and loop tape will actually ruin your felt board adding picks and making it look worn well before it's time.
