Buffalo Games - Darrell Bush - Loon Lake - 1000 Piece Jigsaw Puzzle , Blue

This puzzle has proved invaluable during this time. We aren't leaving the house and it cam become VERY boring at times. This puzzle was just what we needed. It is just difficult enough to be very challenging and making hours fly by . I don't remember the last time I did a puzzle but now I want to order more. Very calming experience. The details of THIS particular puzzle match the picture EXACTLY. VERY GOOD QUALITY

We loved this puzzle! It was hard enough that it took us a while to put it together yet not too hard that we couldn't find an area to work on when one part didn't seem to come together. It's also a beautiful scene too! We've left it on the coffee table as a decoration until we get our next puzzle.

This is a good challenge because it has a lot of the same colors. Only disappointment is because it is missing one piece. After cutting the puzzle they need to count the pieces. My others 2 puzzles from them were complete and I just ordered 2 more. I like the vibrant colors.*** update *** I found my missing piece under the couch. My bad!

This is a beautiful and challenging puzzle that kept my mind busy during quarantine time for sure! I would highly recommend this puzzle to keep your mind busy! The pieces fit together nicely and are great quality.

Another opportunity to work a puzzle outside of my normal image choices. Deep discounts have that effect on me.Looking to fill in a little before heading back to some hair-pulling puzzles, I picked up this little ditty a while back and decided now was the time to work it. Though I don't like paintings in general, this one has a nice colorful scene with good areas of contrast. That's a nice recipe for a reasonably easy puzzle.The details:- Buffalo Games puzzle. Usual good quality and excellent reproduction values.- Snug fitting pieces. Work a section and move it to where you want.- Poster! Save those eyes! Don't squint, use the full-size poster.- Surprisingly, a lot more puzzle dust this time. Normally, Buffalo puzzles are the best at limiting this issue.The "how I did it" section:For this puzzle, I went chairs and boat. Red, so it was easy to pick out. Plus, I ended up with a lot of house pieces, too. But, I next moved to the ground beneath the chairs and then the house. Next the white trees and finally water and sky.It's a reasonably quick solve because of all the different colors. And, it's a pleasant picture, so it's a good add to a puzzler's collection.

Loved the colors, the theme and the pieces are sturdy enough. My only downside would be the shine as it was hard sometimes to work on it depending on the angle of the light reflecting back on the puzzle.

The painting (like all of Mr. Bush' paintings) evokes pleasant childhood memories for me. In fact, it brought to mind conversations from over the years with people who were sharing their fond memories of childhood. The quality of the puzzle is high and adds to the enjoyment of assembling it. I have since bought a couple more Buffalo Games Darrell Bush puzzles and they are equally enjoyable.

More difficult that you might expect. Had a particularly hard time with the stone patio and the grass area to the bottom left of picture. Water and sky were surprisingly doable. Birch trees also a challenge (hint: start with the flowers at the base). Once you reach a "critical mass" in any particular area, it goes rather smoothly. At least I think so; we still must complete the middle and right upper quadrants. Haven't done any Darrell Bush settings previously, but have already ordered one and will want to try more.
