Gems and Fish puzzle

 I didn't keep this one. The pieces were kind of sticky which annoyed me. I actually did this... a month ago maybe?

Bird puzzle

 I borrowed this one from the donation table and it turned out to be missing a couple pieces. Oh well.

Organizing the small things

 I am contemplating making my miniature scenes more permanent - getting rid of the layer of dust etc. - and as a very slow first step in that direction I bought a mini cube for my "little treasures." This is a random collection of bits and pieces from my childhood that I have saved. They are definitely not heirloom quality, just sentimental. I told stories with them when I was little. It worked pretty well - I have one more item, a mini wooden bird, but the paint was flaking off so I'll add it when I've figured out how to repaint it.

Roses in bloom puzzle

 I did this one sideways, which I don't think made any difference. I tried to do the yellow lines first, and failed dismally. Also, there was an extra duplicate piece which greatly confused me.

Eurographics tea cups

 I went back and forth on whether I wanted to keep this one - the colors were more muted than I like - but I'll keep it for now.

Eurographics bird houses

 I've been doing a lot of puzzles - cleaning out my stash and I just find it peaceful. I'm not in the mood for anything else. This was my favorite kind of puzzle, where it's easy to see where the pieces go. Very satisfying.

Ravensburger tropical scene

 I've had this one for a long time but I'd forgotten that it's kind of annoying to make. I did it one more time and then let it go.
