#DailyBrickLimit July 2021

Over on Instagram I have been taking part in the #dailybricklimit challenge, and here are my photos for July

The challenge is building something LEGO related using the number of parts associated with that day, i.e. 5 pieces for the 5th, 12 pieces for the 12th.

This is a great challenge and I have already have ideas what I might do next month

Day 1

I started off sharing a photo of this glass LEGO Minifigure I have got from Hannah Gibson Glass

Day 2

Showing off two custom LEGO Bricks I got this year, Dino Dudes was from Crazy Bricks kickstarter I got earlier this year, and Bricks at Home showbrick was for delivering a wellbeing online workshop at their online LEGO festival earlier this year.

Day 3

One of my little one favourite superheroes, 3 parts are head, body and legs

Day 4

The red monochrome minifigure from the recent Everything is Awesome set

Day 5

For this day I took a still off this video of Spongebob holding an icecream taking a dip

Day 6

Of my favourite bricks is the 2x4 brick. I love how they are 915,103,765 combinations you can build using 6 2x4 bricks.

Day 7

Batman singing!!!!

Day 8

A Unikitty cat which was built in one of my kids workshops a few years ago, I still keep it as it is a great example how you can build something using only a few parts

Day 9

A piece of my PAC MAN Ghost puzzle

Day 10

Our first LEGO Coffee morning since the pandemic and here are 10 bricks from the TIE FIghter Pilot Helmet I was building at Cafe Rust in Hove

Day 11

One of the LEGO Vidiyo minifigures with the tiles they come with. I am still hunting for the ice cream character, and problem with the cardboard boxes is you can’t feel for them.

Day 12

Two packs of my Re-Focus Bricks which I gave out at my first LEGO wellbeing workshop since the start of the pandemic on the 13th July

Day 13

A mosaic, one one of the activities we had during my wellbeing workshop

Day 14

I asked my little one to pick a LEGO character for me to photograph, and he went for Alfred.

Day 15

Decided to do a mash up, of what would happen if Marvel characters were cast in a Toy Story reboot

Day 16

Two bricks from my matching pair games, which I created a few years ago and I have used at many events and workshops. All ages want to test their memory

Day 17

Another mashup, this time Disney characters invaded the Marvel Cinematic Universe

Day 18

A mosaic I created using LEGO dots parts

Day 19

Another selection from my little one, he loves the 60s Batman series (so do I), and he wanted to knock over these figures

Day 20

We all have a spare parts tub, and here are 19 parts from the tub, and one plate

Day 21

Start of an mosaic I am doing for another challenge, one way up it is flowers and the other way up, it is jellyfish / pac man ghosts.

Day 22

21 of my son’s Duplo figures, 22 parts as Superman wears a cape

Day 23

Again using Duplo, I decided to play around with slow motion and reverse play. On Instagram, the video came with Queen’s Don’t Stop Me Now as a backing track

Day 24

I love mosaics, and decided to make Sidney the Snake

Day 25

Using the dice which came in LEGO games, i am developing a game, which can help kids with colour recognition.

Day 26

For me building LEGO Pyramids is very mindful

Day 27

I have been using this challenge as an excuse to experiment, and try new things, even if they don’t work. Here is a pixel version of the Jaws Movie poster just using 1x1 (one 1x2 brick to make the brick limit!)

Day 28

A random collection of minifigure parts including the base of a car

Day 29

The Joker is trying to decide what face to wear today

Day 30

I love doing marble mazes in my LEGO workshops, both kids and adults love them. I built a small one for this challenge and got my three year old to play with it.

Day 31

I love DUPLO!. I wanted to show off some of the very cool printed bricks they have made.
