Remarks House

 I really liked this one with all the little details - it's a company I haven't heard of before, but I looked and didn't see anything else they make that I liked.

Ravensburger four seasons

 I didn't like this one enough to keep it - I'll take it to the library for a prize.

Richard Scarry puzzle

 

Puzzle

 This was a Ravensburger puzzle with fungi. It was sitting on my puzzle table for... a long time. I finished it in the spirit of finishing projects and because I got a new puzzle I wanted to do... and discovered a piece missing. Hopefully it turns up somewhere on the floor, but it was probably vacuumed in one of my (infrequent) cleaning bouts.

Ravensburger Cabinet of Curiosities

 

Ravensberger Gardener's Palette

 

This will definitely be a favorite. You can't precisely match up pieces, because the art is kind of swashy, but you can match up shades. It's a nice combination of different puzzle styles.

Butterflies vintage puzzle

I got this at Barnes and Noble. I picked this one for the picture and because it looked nice to match up. However, it turned out to be one of those where the pieces, especially in the border, don't click together perfectly - you think you've got them together and it turns out they're wrong, especially with all the brown. Annoying. It came together ok in the end, but I wouldn't want to do more of this brand.

Joyful Galison puzzle

 

This was supposed to be a mindfulness exercise or something. I don't know that I felt particularly joyful whilst doing it. People seem to do puzzles either based on the actual pieces and how they come together or the attraction of the picture. I think more of the pieces going together and this was more frustrating than it looked - the colors didn't really match the picture. But it got better closer to the end. Still not sure how I feel about Galison puzzles.

Ravensburger Craft Cupboard

 

And then I did this one in two days. The details were easier and more defined I think.

Ravensburger Bizarre Bookshop

 

I've had this one up for several months - especially near the end it was very tricky. Sometimes lots of little details can be harder, because your eyes skip over them.

Gems and Fish puzzle

 I didn't keep this one. The pieces were kind of sticky which annoyed me. I actually did this... a month ago maybe?

Bird puzzle

 I borrowed this one from the donation table and it turned out to be missing a couple pieces. Oh well.

Roses in bloom puzzle

 I did this one sideways, which I don't think made any difference. I tried to do the yellow lines first, and failed dismally. Also, there was an extra duplicate piece which greatly confused me.

Eurographics tea cups

 I went back and forth on whether I wanted to keep this one - the colors were more muted than I like - but I'll keep it for now.

Eurographics bird houses

 I've been doing a lot of puzzles - cleaning out my stash and I just find it peaceful. I'm not in the mood for anything else. This was my favorite kind of puzzle, where it's easy to see where the pieces go. Very satisfying.

Ravensburger tropical scene

 I've had this one for a long time but I'd forgotten that it's kind of annoying to make. I did it one more time and then let it go.

Eurographics Indian Pillows

 I like this one - I'm keeping it.

Ravensburger Magic Potions

 I always like to return to Ravensburger. The pieces fit together so nicely. This was a very nice one that I'll keep. Enough pieces to be interesting and not super swirly in colors.

Otter puzzle

 From eeboo. I'm going back to some Ravensburger puzzles where the pieces fit together better. I hate taking pieces out and refitting them in a different spot!

Owl puzzle finished

 I borrowed this puzzle from the mountain of donations at the library. It turned out to be extremely evil, with deceptively swooshy colors that were very hard to match. I finished it anyways.
