Christmas Present for My Honey
I had some ideas for what I wanted to get her, but once I saw this on Martha Stewart, I just couldn't pass it up. A picture puzzle; 12 blocks of wood, pick out 6 pictures with love and care, and make her something that she can love and cherish (not to mention I get to watch her trying to decide which of 6 sides goes with each picture). I even cheated and used 7 pictures, just to throw her. I love her so much.
Cut the blocks at home over Thanksgiving. They're a little over one inch, because that's what I happened to find in the shop.
Wood glue on top. May not be the best glue, but of what else I had (rubber cement, gorilla, paper stick), it seemed like the best.
I trimmed the edges by turning it upside down on my sheet glass (from a picture frame) and cut it with a razor.
Run the razor down each joint, and separate the pieces. Make sure to separate them, since otherwise the wood glue would make it a pretty lame puzzle. Less puzzle, more blocks of wood glued back together with a picture stuck to them.
