Disney Vintage Posters
Brand: Ravensburger
Pieces: 1000
Size: 70cm x 50cm
Product Code: 198740
It's been a while so we're going Disney again today!
The above puzzle by Ravensburger features a collection of vintage posters advertising various Disney films on their original release.I love the layered effect of the design, and the informative border that tells the name of each film and its release year. It's amazing how all of these films have stood the test of time and are still popular today, despite decades having passed!
Even more amazing is the fact that some of these films are so well-loved that Disney is remaking/ has remade several as part of their live-action reboots over the last few years- inspiring a new generation of Disney lovers and dividing the rest of us about which film is better (the original or the remake!)
Whatever your preference, there is no doubt that the films in this design are universally loved,and this puzzle is perfect for fans of each and every one of them!

Clifton Springs, Victoria, Australia
Brand: Schmidt
Pieces: 136
Size: 32.5cm x 13.5cm
Product Code: 59367
I just thought I'd quickly shoot this one off before I get ready for a quick interstate travel today!
The above image is of a scene very close to my heart (both figuratively and literally)- this is the old Clifton Springs pier, which is seriously just a short walk away from my home!
I decided to put this one up today to remind myself that even though it is run-down and falling apart, it is also a source of beauty for many photographers and locals (including the fish that swim and feed around the area!)- This is especially so at sunrise and sunset, as you can see in the design.
I was so surprised when I saw this puzzle available for purchase- usually photographic puzzles feature landmarks that are known and familiar to all, not random little suburban bays. That's why I had to purchase this one straight away as soon as I saw it.
A lovely and creative reminder of home :)

Little Kitten
Brand: Puzzlebug
Pieces: 100
Size: 22cm x 28cm
Product Code: -
I'm not usually a fan of cats, but this time around, I thought I would share a pic of a puzzle I did not so long ago.
The relevance? Well there are three points:
1. I saw the live-action remake of The Lion King last week, and, not having completed any puzzles of lions recently, thought that this was the closest option to it!
2. There are balls of yarn in this picture which relate to the loom-weaving crafts I am working on at the moment.
3. It's actually quite a cute kitten.
Yep, I know.
I haven't had the chance to do much puzzling lately but I'm hoping to get back into it soon, especially with some of the new additions to my collection which I have recently purchased (despite an already overflowing cupboard).Can't wait to show you what's next in store!!

Hello From Around The World

Time for another cute one!
When I first saw this puzzle from Mudpuppy, I knew that I had to add it to my collection. The cute imagery, along with the pastel colours and the 'stamp design' made it absolutely perfect! It didn't even bother me that I had to import it from the USA, as it was not available (as far as I could tell) from any Australian suppliers.
As you would expect, this one was quite quick to complete, but I absolutely loved every minute of it- the illustrations that represent each country's stamp are just too cute!
I really enjoy the designs from this brand and will continue to buy them if I come across them in the future.

Harry Potter And The Chamber Of Secrets
Brand: Aquarius
Pieces: 500
Size: 35cm x 48cm
Product Code: 62-112
Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling celebrates her birthday on 31st July, which also happens to be the same day as her famous wizarding protagonist. For this reason, I have decided to put up a picture of a puzzle I did, which features the poster design for the second of the Harry Potter films- The Chamber Of Secrets.
Although this puzzle is only 500 pieces, it took me a lot longer than I anticipated to complete! All the black in the design made it tricky at times, and I needed to have good light to be able to piece together a majority of the picture. That said, the quality of the puzzle was fantastic (as it tends to be with Aquarius) and I enjoyed the time spent putting this one together.
