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!
Maridale Cottages by the Sea
Another puzzle by way of Hoefnagel, from Maridale Products (https://www.maridale.com/) in Pleasanton, California. Thin, mostly interlocking pieces, with a number of large oceanic whimsies. Seems more or less appropriate for this ocean-side landscape, but I was browsing Rebecca T’s puzzle blog for Maridale, and see the same set of whimsies on several different puzzles. Rebecca […]
Hoefnagel Heart, Chestnut & Hemlock
A second puzzle by Terra Rodgers (Chestnut & Hemlock), in a Hoefnagel pack; this one is called “Hoefnagel Heart” and is based on the art of Joris Hoefnagel. Like the bunny puzzle just before this one, it has a regular, irregular edge — cleverly inserting each end of a bowed figure into half of a […]
Feeding the Bunnies, Chestnut & Hemlock
A beautifully cut puzzle from Terra Rodgers, Chestnut & Hemlock — “Feeding the Bunnies”, a 1918 work by Helen Hyde (1868-1918).
Magic Forest by Corgi
I found this “Magic Forest” (art by Frank Champine) puzzle by “Corgi” at PuzzleHouse.com, and as it was lovely tree art, I went for it. 500 pieces, 13″x19″. A colorful water color painting of a forest with trees reflecting in the river. The original art for these Corgi puzzles is printed on acid free 80# […]
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 […]
Puzzlapy, Cats in Paris
“Cats in Paris“, the 120-piece version, by Puzzlapy aka Isabelle Rouillard. The artist is Isy Ochoa. – and browsing her website, I learned that she did a picture book about Rosa Bonheur! I loved this puzzle, and the cuts! Some beautiful color line cutting of the cats, and the little bird, and the Tour Eiffel. […]

Ryoko Meditating Skeleton by Artifact
“Meditating Skeleton” by Ryoko, from Artifact. Super fun! I really liked the irregular border. The base puzzle shape was a skull, with little heart-shaped bone socket connectors. I’ve had this puzzle since April 2022, and just hadn’t gotten around to it, but I’m so glad I finally did. The back makes me think very much […]
Birches in Bits, Leanne Poellinger
“Birches in Bits” by Leanne Poellinger, from Anthology Puzzles – 83 pieces, 4.5 x 5.7″.
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″ :
Moonlight Falcon by Oxana Zaika
Nautilus discontinued this puzzle, “Moonlight Falcon” by Oxana Zaika, and I was wondering why, because it’s such a fabulous image — licensing for the image? or, perhaps the figural of the horseback guy with the scimitar a little too orientalist and problematic? Regardless, the image is fabulous, and I was excited by all the fun […]
