And so far, it is driving me nuts!
I have a systematic approach. I spread all the pieces out on a table and then play music.
I sort through the pieces, looking for ones with straight edges. I figure those are the sides, right?
Well, the top of the puzzle is not going together. I have 6 pieces with straight edges, but only 5 fit....and the missing space is not the one I have left. Somewhere along the top I have put pieces together incorrectly, but I have looked and looked and looked to no avail.
Puzzles are hard for me. I have a short attention span. I am not organized. I give up quickly. I get frustrated.
I put together a Wrigley Field puzzle last year and actually figured out how to glue it and frame it.
Funny story.
The puzzle is 16 x 20, so I bought a 16 x 20 frame that loads from the front. The problem is, the puzzle thickness is more than a photo, so I can't put the glass back on the puzzle.
So I bought a second frame, at a price somewhere near $20, but it back loads and the puzzle fits.
I think I wanted proof that I finished it.
Now I just need a 16 x 20 photo for the $6 frame.....that will cost a fortune.
Anyway, just a couple of other pictures that are semi related to this bit of drivel.
Yes, sometimes my mind is in a fog, like this irrigator.
Stay well, dudes and dudettes.
