Because Wooden Jigsaw Puzzles are nostalgic in style themselves, many enjoy combining a cleverly crafted puzzle with a vintage style print.

"Whenever I lose something, it's always in the last place I look."

I love Norman Rockwell's depictions of American life, family and values. Rockwell calendars are abundant and are an endless source for jigsaw puzzles of this classic style. This puzzle is 9"x10" and has 81 pieces. It was presented to the School Principal to thank him for his work throughout the school year. He had never seen a hand crafted jigsaw puzzle and was delighted. His initials are cut into the puzzle near the door frame.

Do you think of friends or family when you see a humorous Norman Rockwell print? The recipient of the "Full Treatment" reminded the giver of her uncle. This puzzle is 7" x 9" and has 67 pieces. Again, a calendar of Rockwell images was the source for this puzzle.

These beautiful images came from a Collectable Art brochure.

If you love Lena Liu's hummingbirds , flowers or butterflies they make great puzzle subjects. A contour cut can really make it a challenge when first assembling the puzzle.
