Animals in Africa

It’s a classic “Lina Puzzle”. Animals, nature, a slinky wildcat in the tree, there’s so much in here to love.

I found this lovely puzzle for a dollar this past summer at a yard sale. The seller couldn’t confirm if it was complete, but I thought it was definitely worth checking to see.

This puzzle dates back to 2000, which does technically classify as vintage, ha ha! It’s a bit tough for me to consider anything from the early 2000s as vintage but here we are, 2023!

This puzzle was full of lovely earthy tones, and I really enjoyed it. Perhaps not my usual colour choices but it was a very meditative type of puzzle to assemble. The colour blocking and distinct areas made for some smooth puzzling as well, I mostly found our wildcat and the tree to be the most challenging part.

Was it complete? Did I score for a one dollar puzzle? Why, yes it was complete! And this “vintage puzzle” is a gorgeous piece 🙂
