Beyond the Looking Glass

Every so often, when I’m bored, I get online and start looking for the puzzles I remember my family having when I was a kid. These are the ones that I’ve been told about us having or the ones I vaguely remember. This is one of those puzzles. My brother was helping me the day […]

Cat Balloon Race

I think I’ve commented this before, but I guess I’m a cat person now. Although, I’m not sure who wouldn’t want to do this puzzle. It’s such a unique image and fun with the cats all dressed up and riding around in hot air balloons. It looks a little more steampunk-like than true hot air […]

Scoop Du Jour

I’m not sure of the date on this puzzle, but I’m guessing it’s from the late 1990s, early 2000s. I don’t quite see that as vintage, but people on eBay do seeing as that’s how I was able to find it. After my grandma died last year, I wished that I’d been able to get […]

Romantic Town- By night

I don’t remember how long I’ve had this one sitting on my shelves, waiting to be done. For a while, I just wasn’t ready to deal with the chaos of the scene. I’ve done these cartoon puzzles before and I know that they require a level of patience for the amount of what goes on […]

Eastern Bloc Telephones

I found this one while searching for other puzzles and fell in love with the colors. I also really liked the look of the different phones. I’m not old enough to have used a rotary phone, but I do kind of miss the days of an actual phone. The cord was always something to play […]

Goofy- Treasures from the Vault

I’m not normally one for the Disney puzzles, but I love Goofy so when I saw this one, it made it onto my must-have list and I got it for Christmas. I think I’ve only seen the skiing and sleeping ones, but the how-to cartoons are always fun. They were my favorite as a kid. […]

Christmas Doughnut Party

This one was a lucky find at Home Goods when I was Christmas shopping with my mom. I think it was between this one and another Christmas-y one, but I wasn’t thrilled with the image. I didn’t think that Home Goods would have puzzles, other than maybe a few novelty ones. But they had more […]

Carbonated Colors

I can’t remember how long it’s been since I did a puzzle that wasn’t the typical rectangle or square shape. I was on the Springbok website looking for another puzzle, which I’m currently working on, when I found this one and fell in love. I’m not one for gradient puzzles unless they’re like this. I […]

Christmas Books

Sometime last weekend, just after I’d completed my latest puzzle, I was looking for a new one to do. I have plenty of options, but I realized that outside of the advent puzzles, I hadn’t done anything Christmas. Personally, I don’t confine myself to doing certain themed puzzles at their designated time during the year. […]

A New Yorker Cover a Day Puzzle, day 24

This image, as with the last of the Storring puzzles, was the perfect end to the collection. It doesn’t matter that this image is from 1936, it’s still so true. I don’t have kids, but I imagine that I probably did this to my parents when I was younger. That might have been the reason […]
