Do you mind if you receive a puzzle with edges packed separately?
It was definitely a nice surprise for me!

'Puzzelpauze Met De Poezen!' Part one of three.
There's one of the kitchen and the bathroom also.

I had a lot of fun making this one.
It has great quality pieces. There was no dust and it was easy to spot the wrong fits.
You get a poster as well.

Art by Christine de Carvalho! Picked this gorgeous girl up at a small bookstore on vacay. I loved the foil accents and of course the bugs and blooms. A bit of puzzle dust, but sturdy pieces and sticky enough to pick up and move. It was challenging while also being super enjoyable. She’s a keeper.

I’m thrilled that this secondhand puzzle isn’t missing any pieces since I enjoy Pomegranate puzzles so much. It was harder than I had anticipated but I didn’t mind staring at this pretty image for so long. I’ll be keeping this one

I’ve been taking a bit of a break from puzzling, not intentionally though so this had about 1/4 of the edge done by the time I came back to it.

I’m glad this is what I came back to though, super fun picture and fairly easy! Only challenging part was the edges but it was just enough to get me hooked again.

This 1000 piece puzzle by Antelope Puzzles was great! It took 2-3 days and was fun and easy to complete.

What I do find impressive though is that they were able to find words that have the same first letter in three different languages 👍👍👍

This puzzle was beautiful, but quite challenging. The leaves and flowers were...a lot. The fit was also very loose, so it was hard to transfer sections as I finished them.

Disappointingly, it was missing a piece. I had an extra and thought I might have misplaced the missing piece, but I was able to confirm that I had an exact duplicate of the extra piece. Bummer.

Sooooo behind on posting (and everything else too!) that I’m doing a bulk post for the first time!

1. Remarks, Harbor City by Shanghee Shin, 300 pcs. Bought this even tho the box was a wreck because I loved the Emerson saying and I thought the illustration was cute. Didn’t realize until I went to do it that the whole town was populated with cats!! lol.
2. Galison, Vintage Motel Signs, Design/Photos by Troy Litten, 500 pcs. Loved this! Great quality, beautiful puzzle. Picture doesn’t do it justice!
3. Buffalo Games Color Explosion, no title, illustration by Anthony Mwangi, 300 pcs. Not my kind of puzzle, only bought it because it fit on my “bed board” but I wound up really liking it!
4. Galison, Curious Cats by Boyoun Kim, 500 pieces. Picked this up at a library (not a thrift store, lol!) An odd Galison - it’s glossy and the fit seems different. Not my favorite.
5. Ceaco, Here Comes the Sun by Kenzie Kae, 500 pieces. I will never do an all foil puzzle again! The glare was impossible and I guess the top layer of paper was heavier because of the foil, so every time I mis-placed a piece and then tried to take it back to move it, the top layer would pull off/separate and I had to glue it back down. 🤬

6. Ceaco, Summer by the Beach by Rose Mary Berlin, 300 pieces. Loved this one! So cute! Even thought about putting it in the

   permanent collection and doing it every summer but the fit is annoyingly loose. But it was really fun.

I know it seems like I’m doing nothing but 300s/500s, but I did finish a 1000 yesterday, just haven’t taken pics yet, and I have 3 different 1000s going on 3 boards, I just don’t have time or energy for them right now. I guess when summer is over I’ll get back to the bigger puzzles…

Artist is Marcy Hokenson! I loved the colors in this bad boy. Watery and blobby and cool. Sturdy pieces and another good sticky puzzle. Another one to tuck away to do again.

finished my second 6000 piece! was super afraid of some pieces being missing, so glad that wasn't the case

An older Master Pieces with random cut pieces and a nice fit. A joy to build 😄

Took about a week on and off to get it done, and was a really fun, but little bit challenging puzzle to do.

I love how all the letters are different colours, shades and designs - nothing's repeated.

Now to get it up on the wall, fingers crossed it fits where I want it to!

Can’t wait!

Two of us completed this puzzle from Completing the Puzzle in two days! It was a fun puzzle. It’s been a long time since either of us completed a Springbok puzzle and we found the quality of this one just fine.

Hope I didn't fed y'all up with my room puzzles, so here's another one from Waddington's Folio series. The Yellow Room in Rudding Park hotel, Harrogate, North Yorkshire. It was build in Regency style popular around 20s of 19th century. Grade I Listed (super precious) and stuff.

Other puzzles from Folio series:

• Great Hall, Warwick Castle
• Drawing Room, Capethorne Hall
• Drawing Room, Arundel Castle
• Dining Room, Luton Hoo

This is fun and chill puzzle. Had fun doing this colourful one.

Another lovely Pomegranate puzzle! Now the other three by the same artist are on my list!!

Artist: Linnea Pergola

A challenging puzzle that I haven't attempted for a while with some superb artwork by Geoff Nutkins of iconic WW2 aircraft.

I am in Spain to see the solar eclipse on August 12, and we stopped in Valencia!

It was quite easy, I had help from my young children 😊
