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.
