If you mess up, first of all, you really want to watch your pieces because the glue dries fairly quickly. If something slides or something ends up landing in a spot you don't want it to be, you want to try and catch it as soon as possible. Basically, you want to take the piece off and clean all the glue off. You don't want to just try to move it because if you can see it, it's going to dry like that and you're not going to probably be happy with the final design. You don't want it to look messy. Whatever piece it is, go ahead, take it off, and rub off all the glue off the back. You can use a q-tip, a toothpick, or whatever you can find that's going to scrape the glue off. It usually gets kind of rubbery as it starting to dry, so its kind of easy to clean off. Then you just want to reglue it. It's pretty easy, but you do want to keep your eye on it. After it's dry, it's a little harder to get off. Just make sure that the glue is kind of clean. That's it.
