Vibrant Village, CraftHub
I ordered a bunch of puzzles from “PuzzlesUp”, which was closing, and it turned out they were all labeled “CraftHub”. Hmm. Anyway, I liked the image. The pieces were pretty interlocking. This puzzle is called “Vibrant Village”.
Whisker’s Spell, Adolfo Valle, Lighthouse
Ash and I finished a Lighthouse Puzzles puzzle today, the adorable “Whisker’s Spell” by Adolfo Valle.
Alchemist’s Library, Vasilisa Romanenko, eeBoo
Enjoyed this eeBoo 1000-piece puzzle, “Alchemist’s Library“, art by Vasilisa Romanenko. eeBoo: Alchemist’s Library, 1000 piece square jigsaw puzzle. The next installment in Artist Vasilisa Romanenko’s Alchemist Series. A meticulous glimpse into the life and home of a mysterious alchemist filled with books, portraits and scientific detail. I really enjoyed this puzzle — the cozy […]

Jazzy, Greg Paprocki, Ravensburger
Enjoyed the retro vibes of “Jazzy”, image by Greg Paprocki, 500-piece puzzle by Ravensburger, used in the 2024 World Jigsaw Puzzle Championships. Ash and I started it a while ago, put it on pause & tried to save most of the work we’d done, opened it up again today & found … well, *some* of […]
Falling by Mandy Budan, Stumpcraft
460 pieces, puzzle design by Jasen Robillard of Stumpcraft, artwork “Falling” by Mandy Budan. Rental from Hoefnagel. There is a “deep dive” blog post discussing the puzzle and its cut. Like all Stumpcraft puzzles, this one was beautifully cut, and based on beautiful art. I pulled out the whimsies for the photo, and flipping them […]
Cats and Birds, Miko, BCB
Brookie Biglands (BCB) hand-cut this puzzle, with art by Miko, “Cats and Birds”, and I got it via Hoefnagel. Beautiful wood, beautifully cut, and with fun art. A pleasant solve!
Dia de Muertos, Ceaco
Ash and I did a fun 500-piece “Dia de Muertos” cat puzzle, by Ceaco, which were pleased to discover is actually headquartered in Massachusetts. Correspondence to Holyoke! Made in Newton! Cool. However, this puzzle doesn’t seem to be available directly from the Ceaco website; just from various retailers like amazon, target, wal-mart, etc.
That’s What I Do ….
I got this puzzle for Ash a couple of years ago, and Ash did it partly, then it was disassembled, separated into two boxes, and I just found the second box …. Astonishingly, only three pieces are missing (and I have hopes I will find them amongst stuff). This puzzle was hard as hell. The […]
Chestnut & Hemlock, tree snuggle
This was a beautiful birthday gift from Michele …. Ash did it. (-:
Fantasy Orchestra, Delphine Jacquot, Djeco
Loved this 500 piece puzzle! It’s a panoramic landscape, and the pieces are rectangular, rather than squarish, which meant there was a clear orientation. The pieces were also large! So the whole puzzle did not really fit on my board. The pieces were quite thick and a pleasure to handle — the one quality issue […]
Monsters Night Out, SunsOut
This puzzle was haaaard. So many grassy pieces and so many leafy pieces and so haaaaaaaard. And then there was a piece missing! I have looked all over and can’t find it, but I sort of vaguely remember picking up a piece in the sunroom, that I thought belonged to another puzzle … but where […]
Chestnut & Hemlock pocket owl
My partner got me a couple of very sweet handcut puzzles from Chestnut & Hemlock, in Alabama. Ash and I did the “pocket owl”, which was beautiful.
Ravensburger wooden, “Mysterious Owl” wooden owl
Ash and I did a little wooden puzzle from Ravensburger — “Mysterious Owl” — 150 pieces, “Have a hoot of a good time piecing together our 150-piece “Owl” Shaped Wooden puzzle and watch the hours fly by!” – 6.3″ x 8.7″ x 1.8″ I loved that it came in a paper bag. The whimsies were […]
Vintage Nancy Drew, Cobble Hill
A couple of years ago I got two Cobble Hill Nancy Drew book cover puzzles — one was labeled “vintage” and the other, which also had covers from similar eras, was not! The one I did last year around this time included a lot more and many smaller covers, many (not all) from the yellow […]
Quilts of Gee’s Bend, Galison
My neighbor Yael lent me this puzzle that I’d long wanted to do — “The Quilts of Gee’s Bend“, from Galison (1000 pieces). So much fun! Forty different quilts on a white background, effectively forty different small puzzles. I loved it! It’s a strip-cut puzzle. The puzzle material itself is quite thin — more sturdy […]
Mandala Effect, Loubud
My second Loubud Puzzle, “Mandala Effect” (labeled Mandela on the box). A fast, pleasant solve. Such a beautiful image! We loved the cattiness of the mandala, and the multi-piece dog and unicorn whimsies. (Plus the little seahorse.)
World of Bridgerton, Manjit Thapp, Laurence King
Wow, this was so fun. Like a collage puzzle, with many discrete elements, but in a scene. Also, very interesting for the perspective — since it’s a three-dimensional room using classical perspective, there were ways to assemble the architectural elements based on size, angle, etc. This was my first Laurence King (that I remember) and […]
Sprung by Coral Bourgeois, from AreYouGame
“Sprung” was one of two puzzles in a pack from AreYouGame — both by Coral Bourgeois. I really liked this image!
