Reindeer Games – MicroPuzzles – 150 pieces

Hubby and I had a great time with this puzzle, and it went together pretty quickly. This is an exclusive image that is only available through their subscription program. I’m still obsessed with these MicroPuzzles, they make me very very happy!

Picker’s Haul by Aimee Stewart – Buffalo – 2000 pieces

This was my first 2000 piece puzzle in more than a year and a half! The sorting was the worst part, after that though, the assembly was very entertaining. A great image, though it was darker than the usual Aimee Stewart puzzle.

American Eagle by Sharon Turner – Sure-Lox – 300 pieces

Fun puzzle that went together very quickly, and my first Sure-Lox puzzle in a long time too. There’s something about this artwork, I absolutely love it.

Alice in Wonderland – Ravensburger – 1000 pieces

This puzzle was so much fun! All those bright colors made for such a fun assembly. This puzzle brought back a lot of memories of watching this movie. 🎥

The Puzzle That Will Freeze Your Brain by Clive Branson – Wentworth – 34 pieces

With this scary title you’d think this puzzle would have been more difficult than it was. Although, I only got the micro puzzle version of this image – in a larger piece count it would be a bear!

Green by Shelley Davies – Cobble Hill – 1000 pieces

This puzzle was much more entertaining than I thought it would be! Don’t you love it when it works out that way? I do. It was so fun that now I’m trying to keep myself from buying more of the colors available. Oh dear, the P.A.D.S. is kicking in.

Feathers and Fluff by Jen Cameron – MicroPuzzles – 150 pieces

This one was much more difficult than I thought it would be – much more. It doesn’t look like much white when you see the number of pieces, but it was a bit of a trial to finish up the edges. Still, the challenge was fun.

Influential Women by Nour Thorme – Buffalo – 300 pieces

Please someone make this image into a puzzle with at least 1000 pieces, it was so much fun! And it went together way too quickly for me. I loved learning about three new women that I didn’t know before, and the images themselves are beautiful – even without faces.

Button, Button – Springbok (Hallmark) – 500+ pieces

A challenging but entertaining old Springbok from the 1970s. It’s great quality, and an interesting image; there was even a bunch of information about antique buttons on the back. Loved it!

The Nineteenth Amendment – Cobble Hill – 1000 pieces

I had so much fun assembling this puzzle! I put the box away and didn’t use the poster, just used shapes and colors to put it together. I wanted it to last as long as possible, it is such a great image – I loved it! 💜

Rainbow Rain by Jen Cameron – MicroPuzzles – 150 pieces

Isn’t this a great puzzle image? Hubby and I both loved working on this one, although I did have to take it into the puzzle room to finish it. The lighting isn’t great in the bathroom, and the hubs kept putting pieces in the wrong places. 😉

1950s – Re-marks – 1000 pieces

A fantastic image, but the quality was a little disappointing. Re-marks seems to have changed the chipboard and backing they use, and I am not a fan. The finish is shinier as well, which makes for a more difficult assembly under artificial lights.

Irons in the Fire – Bepuzzled – 135 pieces

A good quality mystery puzzle, although the mystery itself was a little easy to solve for my taste. Oh well. It was a fun time, and for thrift store prices you can’t beat that with a golf club! ⛳

Mandala Delight – Page Publications – 500 pieces

This puzzle is a piece of crap, it’s the worst puzzle I’ve worked with in years. Just awful. Thin pieces, fuzzy backs with puzzle dust, doesn’t lay flat, too shiny, HORRID fit. Do yourself a favor and never buy this brand.

Still Life-Fast Moving by Salvador Dali – Ravensburger – 300 pieces

What a fantastic puzzle to follow up the sh*t-show of the previous one. Wonderful quality, beautiful, interesting image – just so much fun. I adore this puzzle, and will probably be keeping it to do again.

Love Coffee – Cra-Z-Art – 300 pieces

I was pleasantly surprised by the excellent quality of this puzzle. Great fit, variety of shapes, excellent reproduction, sturdy chipboard – all around impressive! (Really enjoyable to assemble as well)

Fish Doodle – MicroPuzzles – 150 pieces

So colorful and entertaining to assemble; I really love the look of this one. It’s amazing how challenging these little puzzles can be with so much of the image seeming so small on each tiny piece. We love them though, and hubby is doing much more than I expected he would.

Kellogg’s Fun Pack – Spin Master Games – 600 pieces

This multipack set of 100 piece puzzles was perfect the busy days of holidays. I could sit down and put one together without having to worry about spending too much time in the puzzle room, or I could sit for a little longer and put two or three of them together. Exactly what I was looking for, and really nice quality too!

Animal Selfies by Howard Robinson – Cra-Z-Art – 500 pieces

I had a really good time with all these silly faces, they’re all so cute it’s hard to pick a favorite. These sets make me really happy. 💟

99 Funny Animals – Ravensburger – 1000 pieces

I was hoping this would take longer than it did, but sleep eluded me and there was much more work done in a 24 hour period than expected. Oh well, it isn’t like there aren’t many more here to choose from! Great puzzle, love the images.
