This puzzle has been such a joy to put together. Really love the unique and stunning artwork, the artist did a wonderful job. If you’re in the market for a new puzzle definitely consider getting this one.
The art is beautiful. The mat finish has me worried that it won’t be as durable as those with the protective coating. I purchased it for my 89 year old mother. It’s been challenging for her but the small size keeps it from seeming too daunting.
Thank you for the review! We wanted to assure you that the coating on our soft-touch puzzles is quite durable (even stronger than some coatings!) and also glare free too! But we'd love to know how your mom makes out with it! Feel free to email us with any other questions or feedback. hello@ordinaryhabit.com
These Ordinary Habit puzzles are the most beautiful and thoughtfully created puzzles I've encountered. Love the art and the artists, and I appreciate how many mini puzzle options they have.
I purchased this puzzle while I was in NY in November and I finally got around to building it and when I did, it came out so beautiful! will definitely be purchasing more of these
I LOVE this puzzle. It's super cute and because it's so tiny I put the whole thing together in one sitting! For context, I had a 1000 piece puzzle that has been taking up half my dining room table for MONTHS. This gives me the same sense of accomplishment without taking up precious table real estate. I can't wait to order more.
