Sorry I haven’t been blogging. I just finished my first ever jigsaw puzzle (500 pieces) and went about yesterday to get some glue to stick the whole thing together. It’s drying nicely and am just going frame it up (everything is DIY here!) innabit. Just got another 1000-piecer yesterday, a Norman Rockwell one called “The Soda Fountain” (shown above). Came with a poster too. 

I love Norman Rockwell, don’t you? His pictures bring us to a happier, simpler time. His art always makes me think of sunny, carefree days and messy kids and corner stores and ice cream and diners.

When we buy our house, I’m filling it up with my Norman Rockwell jigsaw puzzles, just you watch.

    hi
    New to your blog - looks great!
    I agree - I love Norman Rockwell. I have a picture in each of my boys’ rooms.

    […] My Norman Rockwell jigsaw is far from finished. My excuse was I needed a jigsaw table so I don’t have to keep packing it up each day. We got a makeshift mahjong table last week, so now I have NO excuse. Drat. […]
