Hipster Gnome

This series is inspired by the gnomes from our childhood but modernized with a GenX – Millennials attitude. Clad in a red cap, green hoodie & colorful clogs, Hipster Gnome explores life on a smaller scale: whether he’s walking his pet bee while scrolling on his phone (we all do it), enjoying a star-lit date night with his lady, or avoiding puddles with his mushroom umbrella on a spring day! 

Whimsical Sea

This series is inspired after watching sea life documentaries with my son. I became fascinated with Octopuses & other wonderful little creatures. This has a more whimsical flare flowing into fantasy so I threw in mermaids & such as well. 

Bestie Meetup

A perfect gift for your Bestie, this series is follows best friends at different meetup locales with their little dog. Our gals are food & beverage connoisseurs so they like to visit coffee shops, farmers markets & the like.

Puzzles are currently in production and should hopefully be available by the end of April 2025. Contact me if you are interested in ordering/reserving any of these designs. Let me know which design(s), how many and if you would need them shipped to you, I can set up a custom order for you. There are a limited quantity so availability is while supplies last or until we can reorder.
