I may have shown this puzzle before - but I threw away all puzzle on hardback - so this one is new. But look at the box - a really great deal. I bought it at Michael's Crafts - regularly $3. on sale now for $1.50. They also have smaller ones that hold a 4" x 6" puzzle perfectly for $.99. I sanded the box just a little, put two coats of water based clear, satin finish on it (sanding a bit between coats.) It makes a wonderful presentation - cheaply. I bought several of the boxes to have on had for the next puzzles.

WOW Sally, your puzzle cutting is just getting better, and better. Love the box idea. At first I thought it was one you made, but for that price...go for it.
Lovely presentation for sure. Nice figurals too, do you cut them on the fly?
Don't ya just love Michaels, and they have great coupons too.

I think that Sally has the touch for sure

, thanks for sharing your talent.........Marshall

Thanks for the compliments!! WD - what does "Nice figurals too, do you cut them on the fly? " mean? These figurals were part of the puzzle - I just cut along the lines. They are not anything I'm making up. Sue Coccia's animal spirits have all these little things inside of them - Earth Art International Each animal in the calendar has a little explanation to go with it. Really unique art. Great for puzzles. This puzzling is sure fun. Everyone I know is getting one for Christmas. (smile)

Sally, I second Wood Dog on the "better and better" comment. It's amazing how much improvement and confidence comes with just a little practice - at least in my experience.
