This cottage looks so nice that it made me forget that I don’t usually like this much vegetation. The puzzle ended up much easier than I expected, because it was in two bags, so it was really two 1000-piece puzzles. I did the more difficult, left half first, but only the foliage on top was really hard. The second half was easier, but the flowers in the bottom right corner took a while.

Lovely painting of sunflowers, and actually not as difficult as I was expecting. I did the vase and table first, and then I pulled the pieces that formed the center of the flowers. I had most of the flowers done before it became hard, and by then there were so few pieces left that the rest wasn’t much of a problem.

Nice image of afternoon tea and books with winter in the background. The cups and pot turned out to be the most difficult part. You can make out some of the book titles, there are a couple of Alexander Dumas books, for example. The tiny red one is supposed to be the Pickwick Papers by Charles Dickens, but I’ve read that one, and however thin the paper is there is no way the book can be that thin 🙂

A nice and easy one, very enjoyable!

It’s been a long time since I read Peter Pan (or saw the movie), and I have no idea who the bearded guy hiding behind the rocks is.

So, I’ve had many horrible photos on this blog, but this is quite possibly the worst. I snapped the photo and didn’t look at the result, and by the time I noticed, I’d already taken the puzzle apart. Oh, well.  I’m not doing it again to get a better photo, it was quite difficult.

I bought this because I’ve found I like images with water. And I did enjoy the water, but then, unfortunately, I also had to do the forest 🙂 OK, it wasn’t too bad, but definitely took a lot longer than the average 1000 piece puzzle that I do.
