I purchased a Cobble Hill puzzle from the online store a few months ago. I enjoyed putting it together so much that when I saw the thrift store stocked with 6 Cobble Hill puzzles for $3.99 each I yoinked them up! 

Cobble Hill puzzles are so beautiful! The pieces fit together very nicely and are of sturdy material. 

Order some Cobble Hill puzzles! (ps They are a Canadian company!)

I yoinked this puzzle so hard when I spied it at the thrift store! My father had several beautiful vintage round puzzles when I was a kid. They were amazing to put together and doing this puzzle reminded me of some of my rare happy childhood memories. I put in an online order for some more round puzzles last night as I won't be able to acquire those family puzzles.
