I like to start on...You put me in the puzzle mood! I like to start one over Christmas break, but am busy with wrestling photos for the team. Will let you in on a little secret of mine, that some people say is cheating. Once I/we get a puzzle together (I like 1,000 piece), when it's time to put it away, I take the edge pieces off and put them in a separate ziplock. The rest also goes in a bag, to prevent loss if the boxes fall off the shelf. Cheating? Maybe, but I absolutely hate finding the edge pieces, and I always put the edge together first. It's my house, my rules, right? Saves time and frustration the next time, as I'm always anxious to get started on the rest of the puzzle. A also separate pieces by color, etc on jelly roll pans, rather than just everything spread out in a mix. That also takes time, but as I'm searching for edge pieces, I sort the others.<br />Nancy from the MidwestAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
