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!

Many An Interesting Character…

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.

Alpine Serenity Puzzle from Buffalo Games

Some puzzles are definitely more challenging than others. That’s part of the thrill. If they were all easy it’d get boring. And if they were all difficult it’d get frustrating. Well, we had just finished an easy puzzle so it was time for a more difficult one. This Alpine Serenity Puzzle from Buffalo Games definitely had its difficult spots. But the final image was very worth the time. And as an added reward, we got to search for the 10 objects hidden within the puzzle!

Frameable Results

So far we haven’t framed a puzzle that we’ve completed. But, we came close after making this Alpine Serenity puzzle from Buffalo Games. The colors and pictures are pleasant. You can almost hear the stream flow by. And the scream of the eagle in the sky. It was a relaxing image after a challenging puzzling time. There are plenty of tough spots as you go for sure!

The Last Piece

This puzzle contains 1000 pieces and includes a poster. The final puzzle is about 27″ wide and 20″ high. The pieces fit well together. The image is colorful and detailed. There are 10 objects hidden in the image for you to locate after you’re done (or find them as you go!). In the end this is a great puzzle to sit back and enjoy!

Black Cat Puzzle from Eurographics

This Black Cat puzzle from Eurographics was not an easy one. We think that made the final result twice as special. This is a frame-worthy puzzle for sure, but it does remind us of the time it took to assemble.

Black-n-Yellow

You can see how the black and yellow areas would be challenging. Zoom on in on the picture and you’ll find crazily-cut pieces. Frustration was high as we struggled to get those parts of the Black Cat puzzle from Eurographics finished. It often was a case of ‘try this’ and ‘try that’. But we made it! And wow, what a great picture this was!

This is an older puzzle. I could not find the exact one available new online, but I did find a similar one that is also 1000 pieces.

The Last Piece

This puzzle did not include a poster. It would’ve helped if it did! There are 1000 pieces in this puzzle. The pieces were thick, and fit well. They are cut randomly, into all sorts of shapes and sizes. This puzzle was a great challenge that took us hours to complete.

Loon Lake Puzzle from Buffalo Games

The Loon Lake Lodge puzzle from Buffalo Games was our first experience making a puzzle of Darrell Bush’s artwork. We both agreed that we needed to do more puzzles of his. So much so that the next day at the grocery store we bought two more! We were instantly attracted to the images on the box covers.

True Art

The colors and lighting in this puzzle were fantastic. It’s a tranquil scene and a very enjoyable work of art. We have definitely become big Darrell Bush fans! We sometimes run across puzzles that we wish we could hang on the wall, if only we had room, and this is definitely one of them.

Our Loon Lake Lodge Puzzle from Buffalo Games came to us used. Or rather, I guess it found us in an antique mall! It’s fun searching out puzzles in antique malls, used book stores and flea markets. We’ve had great luck with them and rarely have one that is missing any pieces.

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 fairly well (ours was a used puzzle). The colors were very good. This was a pretty challenging puzzle in spots, but the final image is truly amazing.

Yankee Wink Hollow Puzzle from Buffalo Games

I have to warn you. I’m going to say ‘wonderful’ a lot in this post. I’m sorry, I know I should look for other adjectives to describe the Yankee Wink Hollow puzzle from Buffalo Games. But ‘wonderful’ just suits it perfectly. The colors are wonderful. The imagery is wonderful. And yes, the pieces fit wonderfully! I promise I’m done with how ‘wonderful’ this is! This is Charles Wysocki at his best.

It’s Not All Wonderful

Ok, there were some difficult spots in the Yankee Wink Hollow puzzle from Buffalo Games. Challenges. Tests. There were several pieces that fit in several places with little hint that they were wrong. That’s ok. It doesn’t all have to be easy. That’s part of the journey.

The trees were the most difficult part in all. The many objects were a joy. This is a piece of art. When done, we both stood back and enjoyed it for a good long time.

It’s just a wonderful puzzle and one of our favorites of all time.

Moonlight and Roses Puzzle from Buffalo Games

“Whew”. We both said it at the same time as the last piece went in. This Moonlight and Roses puzzle from Buffalo Games challenged us both. From start to finish. The imagery was fantastic. The journey, though, was long. This was an older puzzle we acquired used from an antique mall for $4. We got more than our money’s worth that’s for sure!

Where Did It Go?

Our Moonlight and Roses Puzzle from Buffalo Games was missing a piece. It was a used puzzle. I can never get over how when a puzzle is missing a piece, it’s only one. Not two. Not five. But one. But it’s worse. We got down to two ‘holes’ in our puzzle. We had only one piece. And it didn’t fit into either place. We looked and looked and could not find the issue.

The solution? Flip the puzzle over. It wasn’t easy. And it was obvious which piece (it was just one!) we had wrong. Sometimes you just have to do it. Usually we just have to flip a section, but this time we had to flip the entire thing. So in the end, we had just one missing piece. We still enjoyed the puzzle.

We love puzzles of Charles Wysocki’s works. This one is a little different for us. The ones we’ve done in the past were rural scenes, of farms and towns, in an Americana style art. This was not like those, but a lot of fun!

Flower Shop Puzzle from HUADADA

This puzzle ‘pops’ and then some. The Flower Shop puzzle from HUADADA is one of the most colorful puzzles we’ve ever completed. It was so much fun to assemble. We made sure to step back and enjoy the results when we were done. You don’t want to rush these things. Stop and smell the roses, as the saying goes!

A Little Help

The pieces in the Flower Shop puzzle from HUADADA have letters on the back. If you haven’t encountered that before, they’re there to help you sort the pieces. If you opt to use them, that is. You aren’t required to. You can ignore them. If you decide to use them, they divide the puzzle into four quadrants or rectangles. They don’t do the puzzle for you but they will make sorting easier if that’s your thing. We did. I admit it.

The Last Piece

This 1000 piece puzzle included a poster. A really, really big poster. It’s as brightly colored as the puzzle and almost frame-worthy. The assembled puzzle is about 28″ wide and 20″ high. The pieces fit great. The color and image quality are fantastic.

Gull’s Nest Puzzle from Buffalo Games

Puzzles of Charles Wysocki’s art always make us happy. They’re just fun to do. And fun to look at. The Gull’s Nest puzzle from Buffalo Games is another fine example of Wysocki’s great work. There are common elements in his paintings that we find in these puzzles. Like the chimneys being the same. Or the fruits in the trees. Things like that. Always little interesting things. The scenes are always pleasant, peaceful. They’re a bit challenging and a lot of joy.

Always Fun

When we were new to puzzling we started to hear about Charles Wysocki puzzles. We had no clue who he was or what the puzzles were about. Most are like this Gull’s Nest puzzle from Buffalo Games, depicting early mid-19th century times. Horse-drawn carriages. County fairs. Those sorts of things. Now we find ourselves always keeping a puzzle or two (or more) of his artwork on hand for those times when we want a (usually) easier puzzle to complete. Easy doesn’t mean less enjoyable, not at all. They’re just stress-free fun puzzling times.

The Last Piece

This 1000 piece puzzle included a poster. The assembled puzzle is about 27″ wide and 20″ high. The pieces fit fairly well and the colors were great. The original artwork is a painting that translates well to a puzzle.

Ice Cream Shop Window Puzzle from Ceaco

Whew. We made it. We finished the Ice Cream Shop Window puzzle from Ceaco. All 2000 pieces of it. Done. Completed. We sighed a sigh of relief when that last piece went in.

So Much Going On

There’s a lot going on in this Ice Cream Shop Window puzzle from Ceaco. When you’re done with it you have to stand back and really look at it. Everywhere. Every inch. It’s really quite an amazing puzzle. And you’ll remember the spots that gave you ‘trouble’. Like the bricks. And the wood window and door frames.

The Last Piece

This 2000 piece puzzle included a poster. The assembled puzzle is about 38″ wide and 26″ high. The pieces fit really well and the image quality on the pieces is very good. It was fairly hard to put a piece into the wrong place. The picture (or drawing) is like a piece of art. It’s very well done and definitely not a case of ‘clip art.’ This is a challenging puzzle but one of our all-time favorites.
