Lets see, first of all I disassembled DR, it took about an hour, I guess putting my time up to 70 hours total (but I don't think I'm going to count that)
I took a page out of Toms book over at sex drugs and jigsaw puzzles, and broke it up into 16 sections, created my own holding box, and packed the package into the DR box... Here are some pics.
Meanwhile I dropped by the jigsaw puzzle section at walmart (I always find such nice surprises there) and found this
Finally, aside from recital stuff, schoolwork, and another secret project I've been working on behind the scenes for the past 6 months or so (Can't say anything yet, but I will say I'm within a month of being finished) here is what I've been working on for the past few days!
This is one of the nice little finds I found at walmart... It's a 750 piece ceaco puzzle... The pieces were kind of cheap cardboard, but the image ended up being really nice, and the pieces fit together nicely... There are two other puzzles in this set, which I'm going to do next, so I'll post that stuff in the coming weeks.
Boy you are a glutton for punishment....mixing the 10 Thomas Kinkade puzzles together. Tom and his wife sent me a mixed up set of 3 Kinkade puzzles as a smartass gift....and no pictures of any of the puzzles either! LOL So, I'm completely working in the dark on those. I have done the borders of all three, but nothing more. It will have to wait until after I'm finished with this section of the Life puzzle.
ReplyDeleteTop secret project huh? Hmmm....I wonder if it's another papercraft project? Looking forward to hearing more in the coming months....
Nice job on taking apart DR. Did you make your box by just cutting up another one so that it was the right size to just barely hold one section of DR? That will make storing it until you have it all finished and are ready to put it all together easier.
Never heard back from you on the comments above, but I'm guessing it's because you've been super busy. How did your recital go? Well, I hope. Now get back to puzzling, Mr.! LOL
ReplyDeleteyeah, been super busy... I'm done with all the hard stuff though, it all went well...
ReplyDeleteyes I did cut up a bigger box, and it made quite a solid box for the DR...
and if you want gluttony for punishment... I ordered the bombardment of algiers 9000 puzzle with the money I received from people who came to my recital =) THAT is going to be tough...
Yes, that is definitely going to be a punishment. You've got a lot of puzzles stacking up there. What are you working on next?
ReplyDeleteHaven't seen an update in a while....working on a puzzle now or doing other stuff? Also, is the crocheting of an afaghan a joke or did you really do this? LOL I love crocheting....I've made a few afaghans too. LOL
ReplyDeleteI HAVE been working on a puzzle, I just finished, it was another 750 piece puzzle, a post will be posted tomorrow =)
ReplyDeleteI haven't posted lately tho because of my secret project, it's done however, but I cannot post anything yet =)...
