There aren’t many things I love more than an Aimee Stewart puzzle. Who can resist her brilliant use of bright, happy colors and seriously fun images? I know I can’t! As usual this one did not disappoint either. The fit was tight, and even allowed me to take a picture of the puzzle the way my good friend Stacey does. This one is for you! The quality of this 300 piece Buffalo puzzle was great and I thoroughly enjoyed the…

Paws Gone Wild

Paws Gone Wild

If you can possibly look at this puzzle and those little faces and not smile — well then I have to seriously wonder if you’re even human! LOL This puzzle was sooo much fun to put together! Not only was the image adorable, but the quality of the pieces was amazing.

From the moment I first saw Despicable Me in the movie theater I have been hooked. They are just the cutest little, banana eating, mischevious dudes. They always make me smile. So no big surprise…

Play and Make Ice Cream Pops

I loved this puzzle! It was so much fun and a very easy assembly for sure. I haven’t heard of very many of these pops, but most of them look delicious, and I would love to try several. My absolute favorite one was the soccer ball — isn’t it cute? I also really liked the looks of each of these. The fit on this puzzle was pretty loose and there was only one piece shape other than the edges, but…
