[Challenge & Achievement] Beverly’s Ice Cream Truck finished + next kit to build

I’m glad I finished this one. Because the weather is nice and I want some ice cream now :sweat_smile:.

All jokes aside, I truly loved building this one. Even with the broken piece. It had clear instructions, it was not too difficult and the colors are amazing.

I had to use glue twice. The first time with the headlights because i did not position my double sided tape on the exact spot it needed to be. And the second time for the piece I snapped in half.

Overall I’m very happy with how it turned out. Here is a picture with the lights on

If only it was a real ice cream truck where I could get a nice cone with some chocolate and strawberry ice cream. What are your favorite flavors?

I also wanted to determine which kit would be my next. I still have the harp, cuckoo clock and Titanic. I did a round of spin the wheel again and here’s the outcome

I might still start that one today. Happy building!

I’m so happy to see you enjoying this kit so much after everything you’ve been through lately :yellow_heart::sparkles: And honestly, even with the broken piece, it still turned out absolutely adorable :soft_ice_cream:

The lights make it look even more cozy!

I also hope you’re feeling a little better now and that building this kit gave you some comfort and distraction during a difficult time :pleading_face::yellow_heart:

And now I want ice cream too hahaha :sob::strawberry::chocolate_bar:My favorite flavors are probably chocolate and I love pistachio​:drooling_face: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Thank you so much for your kind words. It means a lot to me. I’m doing okay at the moment. I could get the distraction yesterday at the wedding I attended and got some needed cuddles from my friends.

And further it’s just a roller coaster of emotions going up and down. But eventually I will be okay :face_blowing_a_kiss:

And pistachio is not bad either :face_savoring_food:. Sometimes I like to switch to more fruity flavors, so besides strawberry, I love lemon flavor as well :lemon:

I’m really glad to hear you got some comfort and distraction at the wedding :yellow_heart::sparkles: Sometimes being surrounded by people we care about and getting those much needed hugs can make such a difference :pleading_face:

And I think it’s completely understandable that it feels like a roller coaster emotionally. Just take things one day at a time and be gentle with yourself :two_hearts:

Yep, spin the wheel has chosen the cuckoo clock for me. I would have to make this one eventually, so I don’t mind doing it now.

I already completed the first steps, but heading to bed now so no time left to make a post about it. It will follow in the morning. :smiling_face:

Thank you! I feel the same way.

@Jo1 I’m feeling okay now I try to avoid the things that make me feel sad today. So I listened to some music, got a bicycle ride to my parents and I made some crepes for dinner :face_savoring_food:. Now I’m ending the day with a few more chapters in a book before turning off the lights and going to sleep.

I don’t know the flavors you’re mentioning, but I would love to try them :smiling_face:

Thank you!

And you’re right. Glue is a savior in many occasions. I just wish I did not have to use it.

With the cuckoo clock I will definitely be more careful and take my time. And stop building when I feel like getting tired.

I’m just used to using glue, I almost always prefer them over tape. :see_no_evil_monkey:

That’s it! You should just build and do whatever at your own pace. There’s no rush. You need to enjoy building the clock. :pink_heart:

It turned out fantastic and it is such a gorgeous build to make. I hope you’re feeling better in yourself a little now.
You have more difficult builds in your stash but I think the cuckoo clock is a great change of pace after the ice cream van.
