looks pretty

i have same problem, there is only 1 solution and that is to take it out, clean lining board of all rubbish, and redo it. other than that, i found thumb tacks work a treat, look ok, and cost about $4.00 all up.

Pull it out ,clean the board ,get some material from spotlight with a medium stretch( track suit type material works the best) not light,thin or the original crap,use spray adhesive plenty of it for the main part spray on both material and board and a thick and tacky glue( in a tube) for the edges ,do it all in the sun so everything is warm
We have done two of hoodlings like this and they are nicer and plusher than the originals if I new how to post I would show you the finished product

One more thing its nearly impossible to stick the original material and glue will soak through leaving stains and it will always evently sag again, especially when its cold or raining
