Sunday Randomness #263 : Glue on tile


 



I bought some razor blades and a long handled razor scrapper to tackle the glue on the pink bathroom tiles from the carpet that was on the floor before.  Lots of elbow grease later (and a lot of help from Mego!) and most of the glue is off.  We still need to work on some of the residue but it looks a lot better now.

Sunday Randomness #275: Bringing puzzles back into our lives Late June into July sees puzzles 16, 17, and 18

 

300 piece Buffalo Puzzle Vivid collection "Rainbow City" was a fun little puzzle-smaller pieces but it came together quickly since the mirror images were very different.  


Back to another 1000 piece!  Cobble Hill made this scrumptious Breakfast Sweets puzzle.  Who would have known that pancakes in different forms would look so alike?!?!



July saw us going to a simple 500 piece puzzle from Bits and Pieces of animals at a picnic.
