Inseparable Cat And Kitten

Brand: Enjoy Puzzles

Size:  68cm x 48cm

Product Code: 2122

Tomorrow is Mother's Day and it's also my birthday, so what better puzzle to put up than a cute cat and her kitten! 

I did this puzzle a little while ago and it was the first time I had done a puzzle from the Enjoy brand. It was such a pleasure to do and I've done one or two since. The quality is amazing and the colours are always so vibrant.

I don't really have a lot of time to write much more cos I have to get ready to go to Melbourne, but I hope you enjoy the image I have put up and I'll get back to you next week with something new!

Product Code: SP-LL07

It's my birthday today! So I thought I'd put up a beautiful puzzle that I completed last year from Australian brand La La Land. This colourful and vibrant design really caught my attention, and was even used in a state puzzle competition (although I can't remember which one). I really wanted to put up a puzzle that I received for my birthday from a really good friend but I obviously haven't had the chance to do it yet. He bought it for me on a recent trip to Japan and I absolutely love it. It's Tenyo, and Disney, and just amazing. 

Have you absolutely loved any puzzles you've ever been gifted? I definitely have!

I'll speak again next week when I have more time. Oh, and Happy Mother's Day for tomorrow to all the mums out there...

Krypt Gradient

Brand: Ravensburger

Pieces: 631
Size: 70cm x 50cm

Product Code: 168859

A few days ago it was International Color Day and so I thought it would be fitting to put up a photo of a gradient puzzle I completed a while ago. 

This is one of the Ravensburger Krypt puzzles- there are quite a few colours in the series but this is the only one I have purchased or attempted to do. 

I like the idea of the challenge for solid colours but I think I would get much too frustrated trying to do one. I prefer images to complete rather than that sort of thing. But I was happy to give the gradient one a go, simply because of the colours and the fact that it's probably one of the easiest to do from the collection!

Unfortunately, my photo doesn't do the colours of the puzzle any justice- they're much more vibrant and pretty in real life! 

Have you done any of the Krypt puzzles? What did you enjoy about them?

Well I'm back after two weekends of slinging popculture paraphernalia at buying convention visitors, and boy, is it good to be home! 

I love that I get the chance to do things like that through work, but I equally love having my weekends back at home when all the hard work is done!

You'd think that I would have had a great puzzle lined up as a 'welcome back' kind of thing, but sadly, that was the last thing on my mind this weekend. I've been so busy just getting back into the swing of things (and readjusting from Perth's two-hour time difference lol) that I didn't get the chance. 

So I have put up one that has been in my collection for a few months at least- this delightfully colourful sheep puzzle! This one drew my attention when I first saw it, simply because of the colours. The book Where Is The Green Sheep? by Mem Fox was also in rotation with my daughter at the time, so it seemed fitting. 

This puzzle was fun to do, and I got it completed relatively quickly. 

On a completely irrelevant side note, are you going to pre-order Reverie Puzzles new Advent/ Halloween calendar puzzles? Pre-orders open at 12pm today and I am so excited! Haha 

See you next week!

I wanted to put this puzzle up for the month of June- Pride Month- before I miss my chance! 

I will be travelling for work over the next two weekends so I may not have the chance to post anything (unless I do it in the middle of the week between travel). Therefore, I think it's best that I put this up now, in case I don't get the opportunity later. 

I bought this  puzzle because the image was just so striking. I love the colours, the sentiment and the style of the artwork. It was also the first time I had ever seen the puzzle image so I thought I better get it while it was still available. The pieces fit together perfectly and the quality was wonderful. 

I have done quite a few Aquarius puzzles over the years, and I haven't been disappointed with the quality as of yet. 

I'm not sure if I'll have the chance to post any more puzzle photos in the next few weeks but I'll certainly try if I am able. If I don't get the chance, I hope your coming weeks are lovely and I'll be back soon with some more puzzle posts  for you!

Have you come across Reverie Puzzles yet? 

Based in the town of Geelong (Victoria, Australia) they feature puzzles with a booklover's theme, including the one above and some seriously beautiful licenced puzzles which feature artwork inspired by the Sarah J Maas series, A Court Of Thorns And Roses. 

I'm happy to say that I now own nearly every one of the puzzles available from this company, and unlike other brands where I usually sell/pass them on once I'm done, I'm planning on keeping these. The artwork is beautiful, the quality is perfect and although they could be considered a bit pricey, they are sooo worth it. I also love that they are local to me (being a fellow resident of Geelong), and that I can support a local business. 

Check out their website www.reveriepuzzles.com.au and see how awesome their products are. I guarantee that if you love books and whimsical pretty images, you won't be disappointed.

Must I really say more?

As soon as I saw this image (and the other 2 in the collection) I knew I had to do it. I love these modern illustrations (and the messages that they impart). Happily, the quality of the colours, as well as the piece fit, were really good. 

Don't you love cheaply priced puzzles that still deliver on quality and style?!
