Not as quick and simple as your usual 100 piece children’s puzzle, the image gives you a bit of a cerebral workout – or maybe I’m losing brain cells at a faster rate than I’d thought. 😉
These Harry Potter puzzles are one of my favorite Christmas presents this year, I’m having a great time with them. Thank you very much my beautiful daughter. ❤
*I apologize for another short post, I’m still trying to get over this bleeping cold*
Knightingale was a fun image with beautiful colors and interesting artwork; unfortunately it also had poor quality too. There was a great deal of image lift which robbed me of the joy I get when running my hands over the completed puzzle – there were too many tabs sticking up and I didn’t want my puzzle massage to tear any of them off. Still it was a great find at the thrift store, I got several hours of enjoyable puzzle time for only 69 cents!
The artist may have been inspired by Picasso – or this scene is set somewhere near a leaking nuclear reactor. Fun characters with interesting colors, I’d love to find more puzzles with her artwork – it was even more fun to assemble than I’d hoped. 🙂
First completed wooden puzzle of the year. So cute! It has lovely bright colors, and excellent quality. I love this image too, so many adorable puppies!
Please forgive the shortness of today’s post, I’ve come down with quite a cold/virus and am feeling terrible. I miss being able to breathe through my sinuses! 🤕
Harvest Festival is a colorful, entertaining, and gorgeous puzzle that I enjoyed immensely! It combined the fun of working with such an interesting image with the challenge of a semi-random cut – and to top it off it was a very good quality puzzle. 🙂
Tidemark puzzles are a new to me company, and I was pretty impressed with both the image and the quality. The pieces are semi-randomly cut, a good thickness, and fit together quite well. The image reproduction is bright and colorful with crisp lines and very little glare. Their catalog is quite small with only 8 images to choose from, but if one of them strikes your fancy you should give it a try. (Most of them are a little muted for my taste, but there may be something you’d love to assemble.)
The wavy lines of color weren’t easy and got a little tedious on the last day of assembly, but I still love the image and am super proud of myself for sticking with it.
The artwork by Jonathan Green is so striking that I couldn’t help but enjoy myself; bright colors in a puzzle make me happy, and don’t we all need a little more happiness in our lives? I know I do. 🙂

These Harry Potter cover puzzles are harder than they look, but so much fun! The colors are beautiful, the quality is excellent, and they’re small enough to finish with a cup of coffee. 🙂
I’ve read all the books several times, and to be honest I never really paid attention to the detail on the covers before – but you absolutely have to pay attention when you’re putting these together. I’m a puzzler, so you would think I have some eye for detail, but I never noticed the shadow of Sirius Black in the window before!
Or perhaps I did register it, but my muddled brain didn’t keep that information on file. Who knows? Obviously, not me!
