Floral Fiesta Puzzle from Springbok

The Floral Fiesta puzzle from Springbok was one of the brightest, most colorful puzzles we’ve done. That’s what drew us to it in the first place. Everything in it pops right off the puzzle. We sort our puzzles (usually, unless they’re just too hard to sort!) and this one had its obvious sorting areas. That’s not to say this was an easy puzzle. Oh no, my fellow puzzlers, it was not.

Sometimes, Not Just The Picture Is The Challenge

The most challenging part of this Floral Fiesta puzzle from Springbok was the pieces themselves. First, the material. These pieces are thick. Big time thick. They are almost like thick cardboard boxes. Because of that, some were a little curved or bent. Not bad, just sometimes noticeably so. To make matters more challenging, the pieces are cut in crazy ways. Or I should say, they are cut very ‘Springbok-like’. Crazy shapes and sizes. The kind that make finding edges a tough thing to do in some cases.

In the end, this was one of our favorite puzzles. The challenges and the colors gave us a lot of fun and enjoyment.

The Last Piece

This puzzle did not include a poster. The box is large and you can see the image quite well on it, so you really don’t need a poster. There are 1000 very colorful pieces in this puzzle. The assembled puzzle is about 24″ high and 30″ wide. The pieces fit tightly and it’s fairly hard (but not impossible) to put a piece into the wrong place without it being obvious. Some pieces that look like edges are in fact, not. The pieces are cut in different shapes, are very thick and fit very tightly. This was a great puzzle.

Pixels and Pizza Puzzle from Buffalo Games

I wouldn’t be surprised if some people have two different reactions to the puzzles designed by Aimee Stewart, one of our favorite artists. First, the images are always ‘cool’, usually of retro scenes and items. Lots of colors. Lots of things. And that’s why we buy them. But I admit, when we opened the box of the Pixels and Pizza puzzle from Buffalo Games our first thought was “Yowsa, how we gonna sort this thing?” If sorting the pieces first is your thing, this puzzle can be a bit challenging. Colors, everywhere. If you sort by color you’re in for a challenge (sorting by objects might be easier!). But, one thing’s for sure. You cannot beat the final result!

No Worries

Luckily, sorting this Pixels and Pizza puzzle from Buffalo Games really isn’t that bad after you dive in and get started. Each piece had enough of an identifiable object on it that finding its place in the puzzle was actually fairly easy. And a lot of fun. And when we were done, we found ourselves standing there pointing. “Foosball!” “Boom box!” All the neat nostalgic things to look at and enjoy. This is another great Aimee Stewart puzzle. It started out looking like a monumental challenge but in the end was actually almost easy. Almost.

Storin’ Up Puzzle from Buffalo Games

Doing a Charles Wysocki puzzle is like coming home from a long vacation. Familiar. Comforting. We had just completed a rather tough puzzle. Oh it was fun, don’t get me wrong. But it took a while and really exercised our brains. It was time for something a bit less challenging for us. Not easy, but just a little less taxing on our brains. This Storin’ Up Puzzle from Buffalo Games was perfect for that. We’ve done many a Charles Wysocki puzzle, so its familiarity was a welcome thing for us.

Comfort In A Puzzle

When you’ve done a number of Wysocki puzzles you’ll soon realize that there are usually similar objects to be found from puzzle to puzzle. Horses. Trees. Houses. Paths. Grass. All fairly similar. But not boring. They’re definitely not a case of ‘you’ve done one, you’ve done them all’. They’re all fun and challenging in their own ways. Just like this Storin’ Up Puzzle from Buffalo Games. We’ll never get tired of them!

The Last Piece

This puzzle included a poster. There are 1000 pieces in this puzzle. The assembled puzzle is about 20″ high and 27″ wide. The pieces fit tightly and it’s fairly hard (but not impossible) to put a piece into the wrong place without it being obvious. The colors were very good. This was a great puzzle.

Mountain Retreat Puzzle from Buffalo Games

This Mountain Retreat Puzzle from Buffalo Games is a ‘Night and Day’ puzzle. I didn’t even really notice that when we bought it, but it says it right on the box! Yep. The puzzle goes from night (right) to day (left). Or ‘Day and Night’ if you want to look at it the other way. Anyway, it’s kinda different. A lot of this puzzle is kinda different actually. This was a fun what I call ‘clip-art’ puzzle. Things everywhere. But they made sense. Some ‘clip-art’ puzzles look like someone just dragged-and-dropped stuff randomly onto a screen. Not this one. It was fun. And colorful.

Sit Back. Relax. And Enjoy.

We had just finished a large, really hard puzzle. Not that that’s a bad thing. But we needed a little something to get us over it… Something a little easier. But not so easy that we weren’t challenged at least a bit. This Mountain Retreat puzzle from Buffalo Games was perfect for that. Lots of colors. Lots of fun. Challenging but not frustratingly so!

The Last Piece

This 1000 piece puzzle included a poster. The trees were the hardest part to complete, we think. The assembled puzzle is about 27″ wide and 20″ high. The pieces fit kinda tightly. The color and image quality are fantastic.

Garden’s Glory Puzzle from Buffalo Games

We recently finished our first 1000 piece puzzle of some of Darrell Bush’s artwork. We loved Loon Lake so much that the next time we were at our grocery store we picked up a few more puzzles from Mr. Bush. Like his others, the Garden’s Glory puzzle from Buffalo Games was truly fantastic…. when it was completed. But boy, it was a challenge. Many similar colors gave us hours of enjoyable difficulty. It was all worth it. This is a great piece of art. And one that is definitely frame-worthy!

Red. Green. White.

There are quite a few red pieces in this puzzle. And green. And white. They can give you fits, too. If you’re looking for a puzzle that will give you several hours of quality puzzling time, Garden’s Glory puzzle from Buffalo Games is it. I highly recommend Darrell Bush’s art if you are looking for great lighting and colors. We’ve enjoyed them all. And we are looking forward to the other puzzles of his that we have in our (rather large) to-do pile!

Old Town Cats Puzzle from PICKFORU

We do not frame our completed puzzles. This Old Town Cats Puzzle from PICKFORU almost changed our minds about that. This is definitely a frame-worthy puzzle. Its retro-like cats would match some of the retro-like cats found in our home. It’s a fun picture. And it was a fun puzzle to assemble too, even though it definitely had its challenges! It’s a quality puzzle with a great image that is really fun to stand back and enjoy for a while.

A Tale (Tail?) Of Letters

The pieces in this Old Town Cats Puzzle from PICKFORU have letters on the backs to assist in sorting. We used them. I admit it. Some people don’t like them. Some love them. This is going to be a fun puzzle for you no matter which way you go. There are only 6 different letters, so it’s not like you still don’t have some work ahead of you even if you do sort based on them. The letters might help but they don’t do the puzzle for you!

The Last Piece

This puzzle included a nice poster. You could actually frame the poster instead! There were 1000 pieces in this puzzle. The pieces fit tightly. Quite tightly. They are light and have a shiny, almost plastic feel to them. I’m not saying that as a bad thing, they just felt different than other puzzles. It wasn’t easy to have ‘false fits’, so you could pretty much rest easy that when a piece went in, it went in to the right spot. This puzzle was a nice challenge and enjoyable to look at. It was around 24″ high and 24″ wide when completed.

Tea and Cookies Puzzle from Buffalo Games

We’ve enjoyed every puzzle we’ve completed. Well, there was that one we gave up on, but we’ll get back to it some day…. Anyway. If I had to make a ‘Top 10’ list of our favorites, this Tea and Cookies puzzle from Buffalo Games would definitely be on it. And near the top. This puzzle was a true joy to work on, and an even more of a joy to look at when done. Everything about it was fun. The artist, Aimee Stewart, has long been a favorite of ours. We love Ms. Stewart’s use of colors and her often retro-themed puzzles. We consider this one to be one of her best.

Easy Like Sunday Morning

I probably shouldn’t say that this Tea and Cookies puzzle from Buffalo Games was ‘easy’. One person’s ‘easy’ might be another persons ‘hard’. But we found that the colors between the wonderful (yummy!) objects were different enough that determining where pieces should go wasn’t too challenging. That’s not to say we finished in 15 minutes. No, we still got hours of joy putting it together. If you like Aimee Stewart’s works, you’ll love this one!

The Last Piece

This 1000 piece puzzle included a poster. The assembled puzzle is about 27″ wide and 20″ high. The pieces fit very well and the colors were absolutely fantastic. We had very few ‘false fit’ pieces. Everything went and fit where it should. The images are fun and, well, yummy!

The Naturalist’s Collection Puzzle from Buffalo Games

This is a total ‘wow’ puzzle for us. We’ve done a number of puzzles from Aimee Stewart, and they’re all good, but this one was beyond that. This one really amazed us. The Naturalist’s Collection Puzzle from Buffalo Games is easily one of the most enjoyable puzzles we’ve done. There’s so much color. So many things, everywhere, all over. There’s not one boring moment assembling this puzzle. It’s fantastic!

An Easy Challenge

We do love a good challenging puzzle. And at first, The Naturalist’s Collection Puzzle from Buffalo Games seemed very, very difficult. It’s dark in places. There are so many objects. Like shells. And claws. And nests. My goodness, they’re everywhere! But in reality, this puzzle was easier than it looked. The use of colors actually made it easier to determine where pieces went. An easy example is the wooden case. It’s not the same color throughout. That helped a lot!

In the end, this was a true joy to do and a real Aimee Stewart work of art!

I couldn’t find this puzzle available online for sale new. You can certainly look around and hopefully find one used. It’s well worth the hunt! Puzzle designs come and go, so you can always check with Buffalo Games to see if it’s back in production.

The Last Piece

This puzzle included a poster. There are 1000 pieces in this puzzle. The assembled puzzle is about 20″ high and 27″ wide. The pieces fit very well and the image quality on the pieces is fantastic. The colors were great. There are a few darker sections of the puzzle that were a bit challenging. This is a great puzzle that will bring hours of fun.

Bizarre Bookshop 2 Puzzle from Ravensburger

Whew! Boy oh boy did this Bizarre Bookshop 2 Puzzle from Ravensburger ever give us a challenge! From the second we opened the box until the moment the last piece went in (many days later), this puzzle made us work for every piece. We more than got our money’s worth from this one as we spent many an enjoyable (and challenging) hour working on it!

There are so many fun and interesting things in this Bizarre Bookshop 2 Puzzle from Ravensburger. Below is just a (very) small sampling. This is one of those puzzles that you must spend a lot of time on when you are done, finding things that you missed while assembling it. We didn’t notice these as we went, we were too busy just hoping we’d find a place to put a piece. Our marveling at the details didn’t come until later.

The Last Piece

This 1000 piece puzzle did include a poster. A small poster. Even smaller than the image on the box, actually. Oddly, the box is huge. Much bigger than the size needed to hold the puzzle. We could’ve gone for a bigger poster. We made extensive use of our magnifying glass when we did this puzzle. The assembled puzzle is about 27″ wide and 20″ high. The pieces fit very well and the image quality on the pieces is very good. The colors were great and bright. The artwork is fun and whimsical.

Taffy Shop Puzzle from White Mountain

It’s no surprise that the Taffy Shop Puzzle from White Mountain caught our attention as we perused the puzzle section of our local Meijer store. We were drawn in by the wonderful colors. And the vintage look of the taffy shop depicted. Never did it cross our minds how challenging it might be to complete this puzzle. So many similar colors. Would this puzzle be our downfall?

Not So Scary

This Taffy Shop Puzzle from White Mountain ended up not being so terribly challenging. Oh don’t get me wrong. It’s not a 5 minute puzzle. Not by any stretch of the imagination. But the pieces are big, and that helps. A lot. The colors, though similar in spots, are different enough from place-to-place that you don’t get frustrated. Not at all. This is one fun puzzle to work on and enjoy when completed!

The Last Piece

This 1000 piece puzzle included a poster. The pieces are cut in fun shapes that actually made them easier to put into place. It’s quite hard to put a piece in incorrectly. The colors are bright and wonderful. The assembled puzzle is about 30″ wide and 24″ high, so it’s a bit larger than our usual 1000-piece puzzles.
