Bird is the word

This set is really lovely and displays nicely with Emerald City Wall Art and Claude Monet Bridge over a Pond of Water Lilies. The build was good - I would start with the ‘picture’ first and leave the frame for last, but that’s just my preference ( dessert first and all ). My only issue is with the birds… the black crow bars keep falling off the pin parts. Maybe there is some technique to help them stay put, but I have not yet discovered it. Any words for the birds?
Thoroughly enjoyed the variety of pieces and visual components of this build.
Inspired by an earlier review -- and knowing my intended display wall needed a larger piece -- I ordered two sets and combined them. Unlike the earlier review, I decided to mix up most of the elements for the visual effect I preferred. I usually follow instructions closely and have not done a freehand build before. Challenging, and needed patience, but ultimately a lot of fun. I added a few extra small pieces from my spares stockpile, but almost 98% was what came with the sets. This is a good set to play with if you want to try breaking away from the instructions. Just make sure to secure your backing structures very well!
I still hope to adjust the exposed grey line in between the blue mountains, but overall, very pleased.
