Coffee – My Jigsaw Journal

Love Coffee – Cra-Z-Art – 300 pieces

I was in the mood for a quick collage, and this beautiful 300 piece fit the bill just right! And as a coffee lover, of course the image spoke to me – gotta have my coffee in the mornings. ☕

The quality of this Cra-Z-Art puzzle had me pleasantly surprised. Excellent fit, beautiful image reproduction, good variety of shapes, and sturdy chipboard – all of these were better than I’d assumed they’d be. Don’t you love it when things are better than you thought? I do!

This was my favorite section, the hands cupping the mug make almost a heart. LOVE me some coffee! Black with two sugars please. 🖤

I love being able to do this with a puzzle. And I was so sure of this fit that I took this picture BEFORE I took any other pictures. I knew it wouldn’t fall apart, so there was no fear at all – I just picked it up and stood it on it’s bottom edge. That is not how things usually go, I always take my regular pictures before standing up a puzzle, just in case things go pear-shaped. The fit on this puzzle was exceptional!

I love coffee and I love jigsaws, so put the two together and it’s a great combination. This was a thrift store purchase, and the first Remarks puzzle that I assembled.

The quality of the pieces was quite good, although as you can see the finish was somewhat shiny causing glare under lights. The piece shapes were random, not a plain grid cut which made for a nice variety of shapes and a fun assembly. The piece were about average thickness, but were compact and sturdy; and the image quality was excellent. There was also a poster included in the box – added bonus!

I always love getting a thrift store puzzle finished and seeing that all the pieces are present and accounted for. It’s even more satisfying when the assembly is enjoyable and you’ve only spent 99 cents!
