Peking Dragon
A Nautilus puzzle, “Peking Dragon“, 150 pieces, that Ash and I did on July 7 in something under 45 minutes …
The Skyline Was Beautiful on Fire
Finished Stumpcraft puzzle “The Skyline Was Beautiful on Fire” by Steve Driscoll. Fun and requiring a reasonable amount of attention to detail of color and shape. The picture online has more brilliant colors / contrasts than the printed puzzle, and two pieces had tiny wood dings, which made me sad. Otherwise, quite enjoyable, and wholly […]
Bumfuzzled 3 – 34 Keys
I really enjoyed the key theme. And, like the other Bumfuzzled, the puzzle was a bit more challenging than it looked like it was going to be — not really hard, but a fun way to focus attention. (Including the different shades of wood.) Minor critiques! The little drop-outs had not always been disconnected fully […]
Pride mini-puzzles
Two cute Pride mini-puzzles, from Michele, that Ash did recently.
Greenwood Burg Bumfuzzled 2
Enjoyed the colors and patterns of Bumfuzzled #2, “Greenwood Burg”. Michele really got into it, too.
mini-mushroom puzzle
Ash, Michele, and I did a mini-mushroom puzzle (fly agaric) from Nervous System … fun and fast (especially with 3), and as Ash commented, putting it back into its wooden frame & the close-fitting plastic bag practically took longer ….
Hasui Nocturne
From Artifact Puzzles, “Nocturne” by Kawase Hasui; originally a mystery puzzle. Tesselating fish with a beautiful engraving of a carp on the back. Pleasantly challenging and requiring of some focused attention.
Streets of Havana
Enjoyed this whimsy-filled puzzle of Havana, from Mosaic Puzzles. The image provenance is not clear to me — it is listed as “(c) 2021 Assaf Frank” — but I have seen very many similar or identical images, so I wonder if this is either a common framing, or a photoshop of a public domain [or […]
Star Wars
Finished a “Star Wars” puzzle today – Buffalo Games, #10600, 1000 pieces …
Calaveras, Cobble Hill
Ash finished this Cobble Hill 1000-piece “Sugar Skull Cookies” puzzle today ….
Frederick the Literate – Cats of Charles Wysocki
Buffalo Games, “Cats of Charles Wysocki” series, “Frederick the Literate“, 750-piece version. Ash did this 750-piece Buffalo Games puzzle sometime earlier this year, but it’s unclear when; we’re posting this on September 25, 2023, but I’m guessing it was done in the winter/spring earlier this year, so post-dating to May 31.
Ravensburger Space Observatory Escape Puzzle
Ash did this 759-piece Ravensburger puzzle (“Space Observatory Escape Puzzle“) sometime this year, but unclear when; we’re posting this on September 25, 2023, but I’m guessing it was done in the winter/spring earlier this year, so post-dating to May 31. Prevent a flaming comet hurtling toward Earth from destroying the planet by solving the puzzles […]
Lilo and Stitch
Ash finished this 1000-piece “Disney Signature Puzzle” Lilo puzzle, a gift from Mia (thank you Mia!), a while ago — probably around May 23.
Compasses by Garry Gay
Ash and I did this fun little mini puzzle Tuesday, May 23 …. Nautilus Puzzles, compasses by Garry Gay.
Life Magazine Butterfly Flapper
Another puzzle from Victory, more difficult than the San Francisco TWA travel poster I did previously … I really enjoyed the Art Deco / jazz age style cuttings. Unfortunately, a couple of the whimsies were so fragile that they had been snapped before they even got to me from Hoefnagel. 250 wooden pieces / 340x265x5mm (approx. […]
San Francisco via TWA poster
Victory Puzzles: “San Francisco via TWA” vintage poster. Okay, this was my first Victory puzzle. The pieces were thinner than with other wooden puzzles I have done (Artifact, Liberty, Bewilderness, Stumpcraft, Nautilus…) — and the thinness made me feel a bit more they were game pieces, maybe, which was kind of fun. The puzzle had […]
A Bevy of Wild West Women
A fun puzzle, with fun whimsies. Liberty Puzzles: 17.25 x 11.75″ … 477 pieces … “Classic Buffalo Bill show poster. Image courtesy The Buffalo Bill Museum and Grave, celebrating 100 years since the death of Buffalo Bill in 1917.” (Very nice to give an image credit, but I hope they weren’t compelled to license, since […]
tree-themed mini puzzles
Ash and I did two tree-themed mini wood puzzles today. The first was a mini (16-piece) tessellation from Bewilderness — 16 tree shapes, forming a large tree shape, and the picture was also a forest of trees. Ash enjoyed setting up the tree pieces as dominos …. …. We also really enjoyed this pin oak […]
