Puzzle Description:

Pretty silk scarves all folded just so. One is from Japan. One is from Russia. One is from Hawaii. One is from Chinatown. What's that in the lower left corner? A tube of lipstick? How did that get there?

Did the lipstick get put there when she was kissing the letters from her sweetheart? :)

This is a really gorgeous puzzle. The black and red pattern is really pretty and challenging to solve. I'm impressed at you making things that look like flowers and pattern with so few squares.

So, is this a hint for the owner of the bureau? Has the owner of the bureau been to all of those places?

I love how we can see the handles of the drawer. Do we get to find out which scarves come from which place?

The blue and white one was purchased in Hawaii.

The red and black one is from Japan and came with a red silk dress purchased in the U.S.

The rosebud one was purchased at Chinatown in San Francisco.

The green and black horizontal stripe one was a gift from a friend upon her return from a visit to her home town in Russia.

i'm running out of accolades. fantastic perspective. at first i couldn't figure it out. my mind was going everywhere from "big screen tv (upright)" to wrapping paper. then i thought maybe it was a man's drawer with boxers in it, and a bottle of axe in the corner. but the flowered pattern nixed the boxers idea. then it dawned on me that it was probably handkerchiefs or scarves. the red and black pattern made me realize they were scarves. this particular pattern has the illusion of curving so it actually looks like it's laying softly over the other scarves. splendiferous solve!

Thanks, Linda.

Wow, Teresa! All I can say is wow. I somehow missed this one when it was first published; but I'm so glad I found it now. A hot coffee and this puzzle made my morning complete! Ditto Linda Martin!

Gave up. Just too tedious for me. Sounds like it is a pretty image.

Muy bonita y original imagen. Lo de la esquina inferior izquierda no se de donde ha salido, aunque puede ser un pedazo de la parte superior del tablero.

Gracias, Julio. La cosa en la esquina inferior izquierda es el lápiz labial. Todavía tengo ese cajón lleno de bufandas. Recientemente elegí las bufandas de algodón para hacer máscaras faciales para usar mientras caminaba por el vecindario.

Caminas por el vecindario enmascarada? Mujer misteriosa.

Si soy muy misteriosa. :-)
