Puzzle Review: David Bowie Album Puzzle by Aquarius

 



Alright... here we go. Finally! My boyfriend and I finished the David Bowie Album Puzzle from the brand Aquarius. My boyfriend got me this for our anniversary and... this was so much fun to do... we really had a great time doing it together. It took us a long time and it frustrated u a little bit... but it was really a lot of fun and we had a great time doing this! 

I think Aquarius makes puzzles that are meant for gluing and framing. From other puzzles I've seen from them that is sort of what I get from what I see. This wasn't like other puzzles I've ever done in the sense that there were really all the pieces were the same. 2 sides pointed in or curved in and 2 curved out. So if you like separating the pieces... it really doesn't help you while doing this puzzle at all. 

The hardest parts to do were the edges and the text and lightning bolts at the bottom. The puzzles that were mostly solid black and white pieces we thought would be really hard... but they actually weren't all that bad! My boyfriend did most of heroes and The Man Who Sold The World and then we switched and I worked on them a bit... and it really wasn't that hard. 

The first album we had just about completed was Low- which I worked on mostly. It was easy because that was the only album with orange... the only thing was that he had a jacket piece that was really hard to find for us. 

Once you get going with the puzzles... you get more in tuned with the colors and which one is solid solid black and which one is from a jacket or has a little bit of something different on it. There's also a red border on the edges of each album... that really made things a little easier and it kind of made it more fun. Plus it's nice to look at so when I do frame it- it separates the albums better. 

Overall I'm really happy we finished this- I had a lot of fun doing it. I don't know that Aquarius is the first brand I'd buy from again... but if I really loved the art and wanted it framed... I would totally go with an Aquarius puzzle for sure. 

Also part of why I'm talking about this now: I think this is a fantastic gift! It's one of my favorite gifts I think I've ever gotten and... if you have a David Bowie fan in your life- this is the perfect gift! You can find it on his website- I'll link it right here. 

I will probably post more info about some puzzles as... this is sort of my boyfriend and my new hobby since we don't really want to go out. 

Bye!

Scribbles about TV: Jane The Virgin Review!

This I think is a surprise hit, so of corse I needed to watch it for myself to see! It's been getting a lot of critical buzz because it has been reviewed as "one of the best pilots of the season" and I also have been hearing a few critics saying that they don't think it will last because the word "virgin" is in the title... which is stupid. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and if a show is good, its good and people should watch it... plus this did bring pretty high ratings for The CW so the critics that said that can suck it! Lol. Overall I really liked this show. One thing thats been bothering me a lot about the new Fall shows is that the characters aren't interesting enough. Especially the female characters. I thought that this showed a lot of really strong female characters that were interesting. This had a pretty big cast with A LOT of stuff going on for a pilot and most of the characters were female. That is a powerful thing to see on TV...

Top 10 Dating Tips/ Suggestions

So I've been in a relationship for about 2 and a half years... but before that I was single... for a very long time. And I was on dating apps for about a year or so before that... so here's what I learned from those apps. If you want more specific relationship advice I have from being in a relationship... that one might be a little harder but I guess I could do a blog on that too? Idk... I'm not an expert but I think I have some good tips.  Find an App That Works For You  I feel like not all apps work for everyone. I started on Bumble- and I like the app. I love the idea of girls taking the first move- but... I HATE making the first move apparently. So I would just match with a bunch of guys... and never really knew what to talk about. Plus I like having A LOT of info in my bio and Bumble just doesn't give enough space for me. I only went out with 1 guy from Bumble I think and it was bad.  So after that I tried Coffee Meets Bagel... which is terrible. Maybe depending on...

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de...
