Degano’s History

I finished another puzzle today, but this one I had help on. I had begun it when I lived in China but realized my table was way too small so I packed it up and shipped to Alaska where I have a nice big counter. I brought it out right before the wedding and had help, especially from Ryan’s mom Barb. Now it’s finally finished and let me tell you it was a bit challenging simply because I had to scrutinize the box going from decade to decade in search of the right area.

It has all its pieces (2000) and is in great shape.  I’ve been trying to find it on the internet to sell it, but can’t find it anywhere.  If you are interested, I’d sell it for around $30.00 plus shipping.

1000 piece Terra puzzle by Educa puzzles. I’ve already done this one before but needed to do it again so I could figure out which one I was missing.

Sorry India.

So Sad: Missing Puzzle Piece

Well I’ve finished the first puzzle and have requested a new piece. I’ll let you know how that goes. This is the 1000 piece Mizrah puzzle from Pomegranate puzzles. The only problem with redoing a puzzle is that I finish them too fast. This one took a day and I didn’t work all day on it.

UPDATE: I received the missing puzzle piece in the mail yesterday (June 29th).  That was fast.  I am impressed with Pomegranate’s customer service, which makes me doubly happy since I love the quality of their puzzles.  I was worried at first because the envelope arrived with a corner ripped, so I was sure it had fallen out but the people at Pomegranate thought of that and put it in another envelope inside with a neat card as well.  Man I like this company!  Too bad they aren’t in Alaska, wouldn’t it be a great job to put together puzzles and get paid.  I’ll keep dreaming.

I just found a great site that lays out how to get missing puzzle pieces for many jigsaw puzzle companies: http://reviews.ebay.com/Help-With-Missing-Puzzle-Pieces_W0QQugidZ10000000005446010

Unfortunately the two puzzles I needed pieces for weren’t on there, but I went to the Educa official website/lost piece http://www.educa.es/eng/consumer_care/gestion_5.php and found that if you puzzle is part of the missing piece program then you can apply to get the piece in the mail. I also went to the Pomegranate puzzle website and found out that I had to have a receipt and apply within a year. I didn’t have either so I emailed the company and they were kind of enough to let me send in my info anyway and if they have the puzzle still I can get my missing piece.

Here’s my only problem. I put both these puzzles together awhile ago and don’t know which piece is missing so I need to put them both together ASAP. So, I better get on it. I want to have those missing pieces otherwise these puzzles are worthless. I wouldn’t even want to give them away. That would be spreading disappointment.

Jordan went to day camp today and I didn’t know what to do with myself, so I finished this puzzle. It was 1000 pieces. I love this style of Americana paintings right now. Probably because my last year in China all I wanted to do was to come home.

1000 pieces and my last puzzle done in China. I should have done one with a Chinese theme. Maybe I’ll run out and get one.

I liked this puzzle because the colors were beautiful and it has many different aspects.

My latest puzzle. It was only 500 pieces as I needed brain candy. It was fun but now I’m onto a new adventure.
