Thumper Mini Puzzle (Disney's Bambi)

Brand: Paladone Products

Pieces: 100
Size:  18cm x 22cm

Product Code: -

Well, as per usual, I have struggled to find a suitable puzzle image for my Easter post. Even though I thought I had some bunny, chocolate and easter egg-themed  designs in my collection, I wasn't able to find and complete them in time for today's post. Maybe I need to search today, do them, and then have them on standby waiting for next year!

I was, however, able to find a photo of a mini puzzle that I completed a while ago of Bambi's little rabbit buddy Thumper, which I suppose will have to do for the Easter theme this time round. 

I picked up this shaped puzzle through Australia Post and it was relatively quick to do but the pieces were a little loose when the puzzle was put together. So it was enjoyable enough but not as good as it could have been.

Have you ever purchased a puzzle only to be disappointed by the less-than-stellar quality of the pieces?

Tell me your thoughts on this! 

Until next time, have a safe and happy Easter and enjoy all the chocolate! xo

Disney Moments: Bambi (1942) (Collector's Edition)

Brand: Ravensburger
Pieces: 1000
Size: 70cm x 50cm
Product Code: 196777

I did this puzzle quite a while ago but have decided to put it up today. My reason? Just because. 

Part of the Disney Moments puzzle collection by Ravensburger, this was a very cute puzzle to do, and one I quite enjoyed. I have purchased all the designs in this series and am currently trying to get the rest which were released later but are a little bit harder to come by. These more difficult ones include Aladdin and Lady And The Tramp- I'm going to persevere! They're just too awesome! 

I had grand plans to put up an Australian-themed puzzle today, as tomorrow is Australia Day. But that idea went out the window when I realised I hadn't planned for that, and therefore not completed a puzzle in time for it. This is  despite having many scenic designs in my collection. Oh well, next time!

Mickey's Birthday

Brand: Ravensburger
Pieces: 1000
Size: 70cm x 50cm
Product Code:   190195

During the week it was my birthday! I'm not going to let on exactly how old I turned but I can say that it is considered a milestone birthday, it was a memorable day and that I actually made it! 

I have decided to put up another Disney puzzle- and what would be better than one where Mickey Mouse is celebrating his birthday with all the rest of our favourite characters?! I thought this would be a fitting one for the occasion. Bright and cheerful, many popular characters feature in this one, including some of the playful pups from 101 Dalmatians, some of the Disney princesses (including my favourites Jasmine and Belle) and of course, Mickey and co. 

This puzzle, being Disney-themed and Ravensburger, was quick and relatively simple, but still a pleasure to do. As I mentioned, the design is bright and fun and certainly perfect for fans of the Disney franchise.

I was a little late posting this blog today, so sorry about that! 

My husband's family usually celebrate on Christmas Eve and then have a relatively low-key Christmas day, so it was all hustle and bustle this morning to prepare for our delicious late family lunch. Christmas tomorrow will be with my family, but I have every intention of posting one more Christmas- themed blog for the holiday season (particularly because I have three more photos of small Christmas puzzles to post, which I completed last night).

That said, you can't have Christmas Eve without some sort of Christmas-themed puzzle, and what better way to celebrate than with Disney! The above puzzle was relatively quick to do, especially because I knew all the characters and could sort the pieces quite easily. This puzzle features all the Disney favourites as they celebrate the most wonderful time of the year (to take the lyrics from that popular carol).

Disney fans are sure to enjoy the festive spirit instilled in this image with all the characters frolicking in the snow around their beautifully decorated Christmas tree.
