5000 Pieces

by ScrappyDistractionsDec 10, 2023
December Titel challenge

Tile letter for the title are from 2012! Yes, I hoard.

My husband and I got into puzzling in a big way Christmas of '21. Since then, we have completed an average of 1 per week. We now have TWO puzzle tables in our game room that enabled him to work on 5,000 piece puzzle on his own while I worked on 'normal size' puzzles on the other table. It took (only) four months to complete and required an entire sheet of drywall to put it on with lots of separate sheets of foam board to sort the pieces. I was so disappointed when he broke it all down less than a day later to start the next one. We have another 5,000 piece ready to go but he wanted a little break and has gone back to 1,000 and 2,000 piece puzzles for a while.

I am glad to get the sheet of drywall back to use for what it was intended - repairing a hole in the ceiling. But like scrapping, puzzles take priority over DIY in this house!
