Starry Night ~ A Timberdoodle Review

Timberdoodle has in their Art section a fun puzzle entitled Starry Night Pixel Puzzle. The puzzle is a 2,408 piece Pix Brix puzzle intended for ages 6 and above. Using your fingers or the included PB tool to pick up the pieces you will create one of Van Gogh's most famed works of art. "For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars make me dream." Vincent Van Gogh. 

The puzzle includes:

• Starry Night template 
• PB tool
• 2,408+ puzzle Brix

Each color is bagged separately. There are eleven colors that make up Starry Night. At the top of the template all colors used are shown and their respective abbreviations such as, Light Orange is LO. Not all of the colors will have abbreviations. 

Working with the template to create Starry Night. 

The PB tool is really helpful. You use the tool to pick up and slide the bricks 

together. My daughter did say that the PB tool worked best with the black 

puzzle Brix. With the rest of the colors the puzzle Brix did not stay on the PB tool for 

carry over to the puzzle itself. Often times the pieces fell of immediately or before you 

got to placement. This was a major flaw. 

My 20 year old daughter who is an artist decided she wanted to work on this puzzle. 

She is currently in school working her way to become a Physicians Assistant and 

this was a perfect brain break for her. 

Here is a close-up of locking pieces together using the PB tool.

Continuing to make more progress...

We had an issue with some of the Medium Blue pieces being dirty. 

As you can see in the below picture, it is kind of gross. 

Starry Night is coming into view!

My 12 year old daughter decided to get in on the puzzle action. As you can see

she is having to hold the blue piece because it will not stay on the PB tool. With that aside, 

isn't the picture cool!

My daughter is really enjoying putting together this Starry Night, Pix Brix Puzzle. 

Drumroll...May I present Starry Night by Vincent Van Gogh. 

The finished product is very sturdy! You can hold it and wave it and it doesn't move. That

is how stiff it is. The colors are vibrant and the finished piece would be perfect for displaying 

on a bookcase, hanging on a wall, or just about anywhere. 

Here is a close-up of what the puzzle Brix look like. 

We decided to display our Starry Night on our bookshelf. 

This puzzle was definitely a winner! Both of my daughters said that

they would love to do more puzzles. They also said that they would 

like to just have a big tub of Brix to create.
