My apologies for the wonky picture – I have no explanation. But I absolutely loved this puzzle and had a great time assembling it. Great quality, fun image.

 

Puzzle of a Puzzle
Puzzle of a Puzzle – Cra-Z-Art – 100 pieces

Fun and super challenging for only 100 pieces. It was large for a puzzle of this piece count, and I enjoyed it very much. Fair/Good quality, and such an interesting image.

 

Rufff Riders
Rufff Riders – Ceaco – 700 pieces

A bonus puzzle from the thrift store, and I love puzzles with dogs in them – double bonus! It wasn’t too bad to assemble, there was enough stuff in the sky to break up all the blue.

 

Atagoshita and Yabu Lane
Atagoshita and Yabu Lane by Utagawa Hiroshige – Wentworth – 40 pieces

Quick micro puzzle that was fun to put together, and the Asian themed whimsies were beautiful!

 

Wine Kitty
Wine Kitty – Avanti – 150 pieces

I love working with the teeny little pieces of these pocket puzzles. I don’t know what it is about them, but they’re tons of fun to put together.

 

Just Ducky
Just Ducky by Richard Wolfe – Sunsout – 500 pieces

I enjoyed this one much more than I thought I would, and the background wasn’t as bad as I’d imagined. It’s very cute, and lots of fun to put together.

 

Ready for a Drive
Ready for a Drive by Kevin Walsh – White Mountain – 1000 pieces

This was more challenging than I gave it credit for, but I got it done in the end. There’s something about this image that I can’t put into words – I just love it!

 

Studio Kitty-Four
Studio Kitty-Four – Ceaco – 100 pieces

Even though this is only 100 pieces I had an absolutely fantastic time putting it together. These silly animal images from Avanti Press make me smile!

 

Pets Rock
Pets Rock – Ceaco – 550 pieces

This assembly went very quickly, and I enjoyed every single piece! All of the animals chosen were perfect for each personality.

 

Romance
Romance Collage (Saturday Evening Post) – MasterPieces – 1000 pieces

This puzzle was a challenge, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. Vintage looking images are so pretty, but a bit difficult to assemble. Had a great time!

 

Cute little kids puzzle from the box of 10 that I’m still trying to get through. Learned a couple of things about saddles and bits, I love educational puzzles.

 

Live for Today
Live for Today by Thaneeya McArdle – Ceaco – 550 pieces

I love the look of this puzzle, but it’s more difficult than it seems. Still, I had a good time putting it together even though I lost an edge piece. Oh well.

 

No Peeking
No Peeking – Ceaco (Avanti) – 100 pieces

I’m loving these 100 piece puzzles with the images from Avanti, they’re so cute and funny that I just can’t resist them.

 

Lip Smackin'
Lip Smackin’ Sweets by Karen Romanko – Lafayette Puzzle Factory – 1000 pieces

This wasn’t the greatest quality puzzle, but it didn’t stop me from having a good time assembling it. It’s bright and fun, and full of candy – what’s not to love?

 

Coral Reef
Coral Reef by Lambert and Samborski – Great American Puzzle Factory – 294 pieces

This was a really fun puzzle, and I had the best time moving it around too. Really great quality, and an interesting concept. The never-ending, always moving jigsaw puzzle!

 

I assembled each side of this one separately, and I really liked it. It brought back memories of my childhood and the tractor that my dad used to have. 💖

 

Mexican Guitars
Mexican Guitars – Milton Bradley (Big Ben) – 500 pieces

This puzzle went by way too fast, it was too much fun to stop! I would love to find this image in a higher piece count. Such an entertaining assembly!

 

Monsters
Monsters – Ceaco – 700 pieces

I loved this puzzle, it reminded me of how much I love cartoon puzzles. It was great fun.

 

Mosaic
Petrified Wood Mosaic – Fitting Reminder (American Greetings) – 500 pieces

This was pretty difficult, but I absolutely loved it. It makes me think of mom, she found it at the thrift store. It’s pretty old, but was great quality and completely absorbing.

 

Laundry Day
Laundry Day by Adrian Chesterman – Ravensburger – 300 pieces

Adorably cute picture, and an excellent quality Ravensburger too. I haven’t assembled a Ravensburger in quite a while, and it was nice to get back to one.

 

Love
Love by Charles Wysocki – Buffalo – 300 pieces

I enjoyed this puzzle so much that I completed it all in one sitting. It seems different from most other Wysocki’s I’ve done, but the same in the sense that I had a great time putting it together.
