Puzzlapy, Fish Bowl
One of two cute cat puzzles from Puzzlapy, via Hoefnagel.
DaVici mini puzzle assortment
Via Hoefnagel, a double pack of multiple mini puzzles. There were 6 DaVici mini puzzles: two shaped blue cats, and three “scenes” (there’s a second copy of one of them, for a total of four). Two little shaped cats (blue) plus three unique square puzzles — one a rotund cat laying on a flowerbed, a […]
CraftHub owl
Another CraftHub puzzle, this one an owl, which we all enjoyed!
Par Puzzle, Starbucks
Ash and I started this one (April 21), but didn’t have quite enough time to finish! We were so close — just a lot of little white pieces to assemble. Finished it today, April 24. With a lot of help from Pablo! Par Puzzles, a special “Starbucks” themed puzzle, available in New York from Starbucks, […]
Chris Yates, Remote Archipelago
Courtesy of a Hoefnagel pack, a little wooden semi-representational puzzle of islands by Chris Yates. Hoefnagel says: 61 pieces, hand-cut, there is no picture on the box, but we can tell you this little puzzle was inspired by the idea of a remote archipelago, and the puzzle does not have a printed image, rather the […]
Special Delivery by Manami Lingerfelt (Nautilus)
Ash and I enjoyed this owl puzzle by Manami Lingerfelt, from Nautilus: “Special Delivery“: This beautiful owl wooden puzzle looks like a typical barn owl; the artist has our owl carrying a small satchel and a book between her toes. She’s decorated in flowers and is seen soaring through a swirly night sky. Where is she […]

Miyazaki translucent puzzle
We enjoyed the snap-clickiness of this little Miyazaki art puzzle.
3 Cat Max, Dragonfly
Very pretty dragonfly, by 3 Cat Max.
Whooo Goes There by CuriousTiger from Nautilus
Ash and I enjoyed this small owl art puzzle from Nautilus — such a pretty image! “Whooo Goes There” by “CuriousTiger”. I looked for CuriousTiger at DeviantArt, Etsy … could not find one that seems definitively like the right artist. Google Image linked to a site called “Alamy”, which has this image under the name […]
Cat Doodle, Anthology Puzzles
Cat Doodle by Anthology Puzzles …
Anthology, She Loves to Read, Leanne Poellinger
I did this, while Ash was doing art, and also helping me with the puzzle …. Anthology Puzzles, “She Loves to Read” art by Leanne Poellinger, in 125 very tiny pieces, 4.5 x 5.7″ :
Fall Bounty Wreath
A super sweet and fun little 63-piece puzzle, “Fall Bounty Wreath”, art by Parker Fulton, #3249-1, from Elms / Waterford, via Hoefnagel. I did it while Ash did art, but Ash put in a couple of key pieces, thus rendering it a dual effort.
Bewilderness, Majestic III by Deepti Agrawal Mittal
Beautiful elephant puzzle, “Majestic III“, by Deepti Agrawal Mittal, from Bewilderness Puzzles. Ash and I started it a while back, couldn’t finish it, had to disassemble. Then we started it again last weekend, with a travel board, and were able to finish it. This wooden jigsaw puzzle is cut with our very own geometric piece […]
eeboo Mushroom Rainbow
A really beautiful “Mushroom Rainbow” puzzle from eeBoo, 1000 pieces. With labels! Illustration by Kelsey Oseid. Yael Fuerst loaned this one to us. eeBoo: Shiitake, Red Amanita, Oyster… These are but a handful of fascinating fungi you’ll find as you piece together this Mushroom Rainbow 1000 Piece Puzzle, illustrated by Kelsey Oseid. If the challenge […]
finally finished! Some Things Are Scary by Liberty Puzzles
This Edward Gorey “Some Things Are Scary” image is one of my favorite images, so I was excited to get it as a Liberty Puzzle. So hard! Why was it so hard? My puzzle accomplice thinks it may be due to pieces having a similar pattern even when they had different, yet similar, shapes. Also, […]
Stateside Vacay, Amber Day
Ash did this fun US map puzzle – art by Amber Day, “Stateside Vacay”. Notice the puzzler’s socks and the toe pointing to a missing piece.
Fry Family Shop 5×5
This puzzle is called “wooden fractal puzzle“, but I’m not sure why it’s fractal …? This was the 5×5, easy version … when I took it out, Ash thought it looked hard — I thought it was going to be easier than “Wriggle” and it was. Look for the odd piece corners that can only […]
