Jigsaw Puzzles

Loose, poor fitting puzzle, needed to redo several sections (became very frustrating)

It was hard to capture a good picture of this one. It's very glossy. This was the first holographic puzzle I've done. The plastic the the hologram is printed on made it difficult to snap the pieces together.

The puzzle is a "surprise". There's no reference image which was a little intimidating when I saw all the grass. The pieces are random cut and the corner pieces are formed by joining two edge pieces. It was only 500 pieces though, so not much of a challenge The puzzle quality is very high. The pieces are made of wood and about 3mm thick. The image on the puzzle is of my old dog. She past away about five years ago. She was there for me through some very difficult times and meant the world to me.

If I had known the Americana style puzzle supply would dry up at the local thrift shops, I would have kept more than I did for our personal collection. Americana puzzles are probably my favorite, and both Charley Wysocki and his brother Heronim created a lot of Americana artwork.

I can't post the picture of this one because it's different from the box image, and it would be a spoiler for anyone wanting to do it. This was my first escape room puzzle. There are a bunch of hidden clues that create six puzzles. The solutions to the six puzzles reveals a final puzzle. It was way harder than any escape room I've done. I solved three of the six puzzles then decided I wanted to do something else. It was fun.

Amazon had this on sale for about 1/2 regular price. Sadly,we looked all over but can not find the missing piece. It was not easy or the best quality, but kinda fun. I hope you can see the photo of the clue sheet. If it does not show, try clicking on the post. ![](https://lemm.ee/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Flemmy.world%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2F77f4ddfe-9b3e-4fd8-bef6-b431698f3b16.jpeg)

Click here... Box looks like Dowdle, but quality seems more like Sure-Lox, ![](https://lemm.ee/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Flemmy.world%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2Fcb3ad65e-381e-4507-830d-365a48200f66.jpeg) I could not find anything other than Kodak but picture does not match Kodak puzzles. ![](https://lemm.ee/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Flemmy.world%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2F786cb61f-c6b4-436c-ae23-882610f44629.jpeg)

The picture is pretty outdated (RIP Magic Hat and Vermont Peanut Butter), but it was a very easy and addicting puzzle. Great quality pieces.

I could not resist this when Target had it on sale with 20% off, about $7.63 (US). The last time my wife and I went to a Drive In was many years ago, it was a little secluded with woods all around. The next morning we were covered with bug bites, bug bites everywhere.

Did this one with my daughter. She's definitely starting to get it.

The image would have made this puzzle very challenging if it weren't for the pattern of the pieces. All the pieces alternated between one of two shapes - knobs on the top and bottom with holes on the sides; and holes on the top and bottom with knobs on the side. It's kinda hard to see when it's assembled, but most of the pieces looked the same when they didn't have surrounding pieces to build the image. Aside from that, the pieces were small and flimsy.

This is part of our personal collection, well made, easy to see with big pieces. Great for anyone with limited eyesight and or dexterity. However not much of a challenge for those with a lot of experience doing puzzles. I ran out of "new to me" puzzles and this helped fill the void.

This puzzle was fairly old. I'm surprised the pieces are all there.

My wife and daughter found this weird puzzle at the grocery store. My daughter definitely takes after me.

Oh man. All of my horse puzzles are done. I think I've had enough of horses for a little while.

I had an affinity for puzzles at a pretty young age, so my mother grabbed me this one from a yard sale. This was my first "big kids" puzzle. I put it together countless times. You can see it's seen a lot of use and abuse - there's a piece missing, one piece is ripped in half, a couple of them were chewed on by my toddler brother. This was the first time I put it together in well over twenty years - the first time since my mom passed away and we sold my childhood home; the first time since buying my own home; the first time since I got married; the first time since I started a family. It brought back a lot of memories.
