Flowers and Flyers Puzzle from Buffalo Games

We traded with a couple in our neighborhood for this Flowers and Flyers puzzle from Buffalo Games. It instantly caught our attention. How could it not? The amazing colors jumped right off of the box. Although we knew it would be a challenging puzzle, we could not resist. So we grabbed it and ran. Well, walked.

A Slow Start

Right out of the gates progress was a little slow on this Flowers and Flyers puzzle from Buffalo games. As the official ‘Edge Guy’ I found myself making several mistakes along the sides, putting pieces in the wrong places. They fit, but they were wrong. And it was challenging to find the wrong ones, too. But perseverance paid off.

Tackling the flowers was too overwhelming at first. So we concentrated on the butterflies and the vertical lines separating the ‘columns’ of plants. Those lines proved challenging too, but at least the colors were easy to identify.

In the end we had an amazingly colorful puzzle that we could step back and enjoy. If we glued and framed puzzles, this would be the first one we would do. It’s like art.

The Last Piece

This puzzle contains 1000 pieces. The final puzzle is about 20″ high and 27″ wide. The pieces fit really well. The image is crisp and bright and the colors are fantastic. There is a poster included that is clear and easy to work from. This is a great challenging puzzle!

Sunday Morning Stroll Puzzle from Buffalo Games

This Sunday Morning Stroll puzzle from Buffalo Games is another great Charles Wysocki work. His paintings translate well into puzzles. The imagery is always fantastic. Almost transporting. All of our Wysocki puzzles prior to this one were more rural American scenes. This one is a more south-of-the-border painting. Oh, but don’t get fooled by the wonderful picture. Difficult challenges await.

Great Pieces. Tough Puzzle.

All is not burros, geese and flowers at the cantina. Tough times lurk in the trees above. Although we found most of this puzzle to be a pretty average challenge, the trees (particularly on the upper left) were a real test for us. Because of the painting quality (and that’s not a negative, just a note) it’s hard to tell which pieces fit in where. It took us a while. That’s ok because oh did we ever enjoy the time and the final result of this Sunday Morning Stroll puzzle from Buffalo Games.

Summer Breeze Puzzle from White Mountain

I am pretty sure we both heard the ocean waves while making this Summer Breeze puzzle from White Mountain. And we could hear the gulls and the warm summer breeze blowing across the porch. This was a great puzzle that was fun and relaxing to do.

Relax When You’re Done

Oh sure, we’d all like to be sitting in the image from this Summer Breeze puzzle from White Mountain. But before we can dream of that we have to put it all together. And that’s not as easy as it might seem. There are a few challenging spots to be found. The chairs, rug and the cream-colored wood posts and ceiling for example. The sky and ocean, often a tough spot in many puzzles, were actually pretty easy to do.

The Last Piece

This puzzle contains 1000 pieces and includes a poster. The final puzzle is about 24″ high and 30″ wide. The pieces are big, thick and fit really well. The image is crisp and bright and detailed. This is a great, quality puzzle!

Book Nook Puzzle from White Mountain

We often go from easy puzzles to hard puzzles and back again. The easy puzzles give us a little breather before diving in on the ones that are more challenging. Like this Book Nook puzzle from White Mountain. Although not super difficult, it did offer a few challenges along the way. There are some decidedly darker areas of this puzzle making it a little harder to tell the pieces apart. But the hope of a great looking puzzle kept us going until success!

Kinda Spooky

I found parts of this Book Nook puzzle from White Mountain a little spooky. Not scary spooky. There are lizards around. And mice. Little things like that. You’ll find them as you go and think “wow, look at that!”. And the lighting made me think “spooky”. But it’s a fun picture and quite relaxing to sit back and enjoy. So I guess it’s spooky in a good way!

My wife did not find it spooky but instead thought it’d be a great place to read!

The Last Piece

This puzzle included a nice large poster. There are 1000 pieces in this puzzle. The assembled puzzle is about 30″ wide and 24″ high. The pieces are large, fit together very well and the image quality on the pieces is great. The colors were great and the pieces are cut perfectly. This is a quality puzzle that brings hours of enjoyment.

Budzen’s Puzzle from Buffalo Games

This Budzen’s puzzle from Buffalo Games was our first puzzle with artwork by Charles Wysocki. We’d heard his name many times in various puzzle circles but honestly, we didn’t really know anything about him. So like anyone else, we looked him up on Wikipedia. Wysocki was an artist that painted mostly primitive works that depicted an early American life. We both enjoyed the artwork and the challenge of this puzzle. It was definitely tricky in spots, with lots of similar colors and textures making it easy to confuse the pieces. That’s good. A good challenge is a good thing.

Quality In Every Way

Puzzle quality comes in several ways. Of course you want quality, well-cut thick pieces that fit well. And you want amazing art. A poster is a plus, for us. And a bit of a challenge is a good thing. This Budzen’s puzzle from Buffalo Games was quality all-around. This won’t be our last Charles Wysocki puzzle. In fact, we already find ourselves seeking them out now when we go puzzle hunting.

The Last Piece

This puzzle includes a poster. There are 1000 pieces. The assembled puzzle is about 27″ wide and 20″ high. The pieces fit very well and the image quality on the pieces is fantastic. The colors were great and the pieces are cut perfectly. This is a quality puzzle that brings hours of enjoyment.

Reader’s Paradise Puzzle from White Mountain

Some puzzles make you feel warm. Comfortable. Relaxed. Or at least they do me. I think a lot of that is the colors in the picture. Soft colors. Pleasant images. It’s not a coincidence that often those puzzles are made by artist Aimee Stewart. Her puzzle artwork is by far some of my favorite. The Reader’s Paradise puzzle from White Mountain has its share of challenging areas for sure. It’s a great puzzle to relax to. It’s fun to put on your favorite music and sit down and enjoy a pleasant puzzling experience!

It’s a Good Time For a Magnifying Glass

I made heavy use of my magnifying glass when putting together this Reader’s Paradise puzzle from White Mountain. The colors alone weren’t enough to distinguish many of the books.

There’s a bit of brown in this puzzle. That definitely added to the challenge. As did the white and more, the balusters. There are lots of great details in this puzzle. Fun things. You get that with Aimee Stewart‘s puzzles and that’s what makes them so great!

Quality. And Challenging.

A hard puzzle is more fun when you’re dealing with quality pieces. Just the right thickness. Brilliant colors. A matching poster (great when there are two of us working the puzzle at the same time!). We’ve always had great success and fun with Ravensburger puzzles. This one was no exception. We really enjoyed putting The Kitchen Cupboard puzzle, from opening the box to stepping back and enjoying the final result.

Tiki Beach Sunset Puzzle from Buffalo Games

This Tiki Beach Sunset puzzle from Buffalo Games had us quickly crowning Aimee Stewart as our favorite puzzle artist. The colors, the images and the objects in her puzzles just cannot be beat in our opinion. We are always drawn to her work. And often, we can recognize it from across the aisle in the store. There’s nothing else out there like it. We always have a stack of her puzzles on-hand, some waiting to be started and many already completed.

Enjoy The Challenge

We found a few areas of this Tiki Beach Sunset puzzle from Buffalo Games to be a bit challenging. Mostly because of the colors and shading. The rug on the floor, the ceiling and the fish tank were definitely harder areas than others.

It was also easy to get distracted by the many great objects in this puzzle. A turntable, skulls, model boats… a lizard… You name it. It’s just fun to assemble and more fun to sit back and enjoy when completed.

The Last Piece

This puzzle included a brightly colored poster. There are 1000 pieces in 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 fantastic. The colors were great and the pieces are cut perfectly. This is a quality puzzle that brings hours of enjoyment.

Full Moon Puzzle from BetterCo

I didn’t know whether to be happy or sad when a co-worker gave us this Full Moon puzzle from BetterCo. It didn’t take us long to realize that this one was going to be a challenge. We’d never done a round puzzle before, for starters. And we’d never done a puzzle with absolutely no colors in it before. We knew were in for hours of…. well, pain.

Where To Start

We started the Full Moon puzzle from BetterCo like we do any other puzzle: by sorting the pieces. Well that didn’t last long. How do you sort this one? Gray. Sorta gray. Lighter gray. And edges? Well that’s what we did. And in hindsight I think I’d maybe try a suggestion I read online: start with the middle. The pieces there are shaped a bit differently because you have a tight circle to begin with. Then you work around the edges of that, building as you go. I don’t know if that’d be a lot easier. But boy was our going ever slow the way we did it!

The Last Piece

This puzzle contains 1000 pieces. The final puzzle is a 26 1/2″ circle. The pieces fit well together. The image is of the moon, so it’s as detailed as you would expect. In the end this is a great puzzle to sit back and enjoy!
