I’m not normally a fan of wooden puzzles, the shapes are just so strange. However, my friend had posted this sea turtle puzzle she had done, which is so beautiful. So, she sent it to me to do and then return when done.
It’s my first “traveling” puzzle.
I’ve done the first step, sorted the pieces. Now, to tackle putting them together.
LOL – I’m always amused when people are doing something challenging and they say, “WISH ME LUCK!”
Is that what I should say, given this situation? Look at these pieces. I don’t know where to begin.
Look to the far right of the photo. They had some cute shaped pieces.
Ok… today is the day to tackle this beast of a puzzle!
Anyone else start receiving WP Achievement Awards. LOL – I’d like to think I have a FANTASTIC blog, so I was amused when I received this World Domination Achievement unlocked.
What’s behind that one? How did I achieve it? I am flying high this AM, even though I secretly know it’s not true.
PRETENDING is fun. YES, I rock! YES, I dominate this Blog site! YES, everyone wants to hear what I have to say!
I guess… it’s a fun way for them (WP) to motivate us… play a game of getting “MORE” Achievement Awards.
I’m not sure where to find them. Looked around, but didn’t see them.
I mean, if I have these two, WHAT else have I achieved!
Here’s to NEW —ACHIEVEMENT— goals this second quarter of the year, RIGHT!?!?
I’ve been wanting to do this Disney puzzle for a long time, but 1,500 pieces seemed like a lot.
2026 – It’s the year. I was at a puzzle exchange and “there was the puzzle.” I immediately snapped it up.
Imagine my surprise, when I opened the box, and the person who donated it had left many sections intact. Sometimes this is done, when it is too hard to take the pieces apart.
I have to admit… I was excited versus annoyed.
I did think… Is this cheating?
I mean, we’re “supposed” to do a puzzle from start to finish. Then I thought, it’s winter, I’ll pretend I’m on a cruise. I’ve gone to the game room and the puzzle is sitting there and I just continue working on it.
As you can see, I need to improve my evening lighting. Hard to get clear photos, but you get the idea.
I was able to complete this puzzle in one evening. Disney puzzles are SO MUCH FUN!
We had a snow storm yesterday, so a lot of puzzling and book reading here.
I sure hope Spring comes soon, miss outdoor walking! Too icy to walk outside right now…
When my children were young, we always had a chocolate Advent calendar.
Well, this year, I learned that there are Advent Calendars in PUZZLE form. Yes, see photo. You do one puzzle a day and by Christmas Eve, you have the entire puzzle scene finished.
As you can see, I got a little excited and kept puzzling. Each day, in this particular puzzle, there are ~50 pieces a day. So, it’s fun and easy.
I really liked this stained glass Christmas scene. However, they have puzzles that are not religious in nature and where each puzzle stands alone. So, this can be for everyone who enjoys puzzling.
Anyone else out there doing an PUZZLE Advent Calendar?
