Don’t start ordering just yet,<\/strong> but we’re planning on at least EIGHT new jigsaw puzzles in the near future. I’ve been in the design process for the past few weeks and we’d like to share some now to get a bit of feedback. These are new in every way, smaller boxes, a free poster inside each box along with the puzzle. They’re the same sized puzzles, 18″x 24″, but the box is smaller to help with shipping and storage – storage for us especially as our little warehouse gets pretty packed sometimes.<\/p>\n\n\n

After years of making interpretive puzzles from my park murals, we thought it was time to change it up, so here are the first designs. No name on the one below, but it’s Point Reyes National Seashore just north of San Francisco. This painting is on their park map.<\/p>\n\n\n

And this one is from Mesa Verde in Colorado where the original painting hangs in the old historic museum. My dad worked here many years ago, so it has double meaning to me to see it in print in a new life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I find it interesting how these things have found a way into my life. When we started making these many years ago,  I never suspected here I’d be in 2020 making boxes of cut-up cardboard that people would collect, a LOT of people. And judging by the email we get, they are put back together again and again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
