December

A World of Money by Charlie Girard – White Mountain – 550 pieces

Interesting and challenging collage – I enjoyed it very much! It took longer than normal for a 550 piece puzzle, but I didn’t mind at all.

Puzzle Pride – MicroPuzzles – 150 pieces

I thought this one would be much easier – I wasn’t prepared for how difficult it was! Still, it was double-sided, which made it a bit easier when I was stuck. Fun puzzle!

Ruby the Red Beaked Emu by Sue Janson – Mr. Bob Puzzles – 40 pieces

Adorable little Australian Christmas puzzle, ain’t it cute? Absolutely loved it!

Gingerbread – Paladone – 108 pieces

Such a bright, colorful little puzzle – and it wasn’t overly easy either. The border was a pain, with plenty of pieces that didn’t connect; but otherwise the quality was excellent!

Shining Brightly by Alan Giana – E&L – 100 pieces

Typical pretty Christmas image – just not my pile of pieces. Still, I appreciate both the gift and the giver. Love my puzzle pals!

Koi Fish by Ciro Marchetti – Milton Bradley (Big Ben Luxe) – 500 pieces

Absolutely stunning image that made for entertaining puzzling. The wonky, loose fit left a bit to be desired, but I still enjoyed myself. 💙

Christmas Party – Brother Sister Design Studio – 300 pieces

Adorable little 100 piece shaped puzzles with googly eyes attached to the pieces – what’s not to love? You know I’m a sucker for the puppy puzzles!

Wintry Windows* – Aldi (Advent calendar) – 80 pieces

Day one of this Advent calendar and I was happily surprised by the quality. Very nice!

Fireside Nap* – Aldi (Advent calendar) – 80 pieces

Although the color palette of this one isn’t really my taste, this one was REALLY fun to put together. Nice quality puzzles with lovely images. 💕

City Charm* – Aldi – 80 pieces

Cute little image that wasn’t too bad to assemble. I’m so pleased these puzzles haven’t really had any quality issues so far.

The Stockings Were Hung* – Aldi 80 pieces

Another muted color palette, and a more challenging assembly – it was pretty good though, and I’m still enjoying these!

We Wish You The Merriest – MicroPuzzles – 150 pieces

REALLY difficult MicroPuzzle image, but in the end it looks beautiful and so I’m happy. Merry Christmas everyone!

Kookies for Kringle* – Aldi – 80 pieces

Cute image, but the edges were not easy and had to be done at the end. Fun puzzle!

Skating Party* – Aldi – 80 pieces

Kind of a pale image, but not too bad to work with. Still enjoying the Aldi puzzles and happy with their quality.

Santa’s Village* – Aldi – 80 pieces

I liked the color of this one, and the fact that there were some words to assemble made it even better!

Merry Masquerade* – Aldi – 80 pieces

This image was much harder to assemble than I thought it would be! Still, I enjoyed it very much. 😊

Chilly Treats* – Aldi – 80 pieces

Another image where the edges were done closer to the end, they look easy but they’re not. I like it!

The Stocking is Stuffed* – Aldi – 80 pieces

Adorable holiday image, but again it was harder than it looks. All of these puzzles have been complete so far – amazing!

Gingerbread Glen* – Aldi – 80 pieces

This is one of my favorite images so far, really enjoyable to put together. We’re almost done!

Santa’s Here!* – Aldi – 80 pieces

I can’t believe it! There were twelve different puzzles and they were all complete! Great job Aldi, consider me impressed!

Going to the Movies – Springbok – 1000 pieces

HORRIBLE quality puzzle, but a fantastic image. I enjoyed the image itself, but the puzzle it was connected to made me very sad.
