Wicked Wonderful Wordies
a visual idiom puzzle
------------------------------
description
The word "run" built from repeated use of the word "mill" to form the letters.
------------------------------
Explanation:
Typically, some kind of text is arranged inside, or somewhere around a square frame. The arrangement can be significant, and might be the key to recognizing the idiom.

The puzzle can be difficult to solve because the idiom or common phrase may not be common to the person trying to solve the puzzle.

Sometimes there is an "AhHa!" moment, though.

The wooden veneer around the outside of my brass puzzle box, with toki pona laser etched into it.

A hard-to-take photo of a bright light emitting out of the glass bumps on the top of my puzzle, in a dark room.
