For my next puzzle, I chose Rainbow Crystals, which is a 500 piece puzzle by Galison. The artist is Julie Seabrook Ream. This was one of the puzzles I got for Christmas from my wish list. It has everything I like – an object present in a rainbow of colors with very little white space or solid color areas with no texture.
Here are the pieces, sorted by color with the edge pieces in their own pile. So pretty!

I did this puzzle in two days. I think the total time was about 3 hours. Here’s the finished puzzle:

When I posted a picture of the puzzle on Facebook, one of my friends thought it looked like candy!
This was a very fun puzzle to do. It was very easy but still satisfying. I think the next one I’m going to do is an image of a bunch of different teacups. A friend was helping another friend clear out his dad’s house and grabbed it from there for me.


Glad to see a new post from you! And glad that Santa brought you a puzzle from your wishlist.
3 hours for a 500 piece puzzle is quite speedy. It takes me much longer. Multiple days, really. Do you think the rainbow-ness of the puzzle helped it come together quicker than usual?

Yes, I think it being a rainbow made it go a lot faster. I was able to take each color and work on as a section. Plus there wasn’t really any big white spaces to fill in.
