My very first post for Jigsaw Junkies happened to be a piece on a shaped puzzle by Galison (aka Chronicle Books) Today I am revisiting Galison's shaped puzzles with the lovely Jonathan Adler Rainbow Hand. I think I got this puzzle last March. I had tried to buy it so many times, but with the... Continue Reading →
I must say that all that glitters are gold. The other day I was looking through my collection of puzzles and stumbled upon a glitter puzzle. I haven't assembled a glitter puzzle in a while and so I was excited to get started. I will admit that when I purchased my first glitter puzzle, I... Continue Reading →

At the height of our COVID isolation some months ago I was close to running out of jigsaw puzzles. Ugly withdrawal was looming. I might have been forced to become productive – shampoo carpets, clean out cupboards. . . that sort of thing. Luckily a relative gifted me with Gamer’s Trove which is now once... Continue Reading →
I have a confession to make. I'm a certified puzzle dragon. I'll buy a puzzle and sit on it forever. I'm not ashamed to admit that I have puzzles from at least 2 years ago that I haven't assembled yet. Some people may see that as a problem, I see it as my delightful pile... Continue Reading →

I simply cannot get enough mini puzzles! Everything is more adorable when it is tiny - puppies, toys, even people. I have several Pigment & Hue Mini puzzles. One thing I really love about mini puzzles is you can take them anywhere. The boxes are compact enough that you can stick them in a purse... Continue Reading →
If Sheldon Cooper, of TV’s Big Bang Theory, were real he’d be telling me that it was time I paid proper attention to trains. I am not sure why Sheldon was obsessed with trains, but when you think about it, they led to the development of management as a profession and the creation of our... Continue Reading →
For several months I watched it from afar. I was intrigued by the history of it. I lurked in the shadows trying to decide if I wanted another cutaway puzzle. Before I could decide, it would disappear. Apparently others were obsessed with this puzzle too. . . I kept checking and when it became available... Continue Reading →
This week I had a need for color. We had just had about four straight days of rain and I needed a punch of chroma! I dug into my increasing crowded puzzle closet determined to find something to combat my dreary days. Behold! There it was, carefully organized next to......I'm kidding, it wasn't organized. In...

I recently had the pleasure of assembling a 500 piece round puzzle from Eeboo. I've done some of their puzzles before, usually in the form of a 1000 piece square puzzle. However, I really enjoy taking a break from the norm and doing a puzzle without corners. It's been a rainy couple of days where... Continue Reading →
