J is for Jigsaw Puzzles

I have always loved puzzles of all kinds, especially jigsaw puzzles. When I was a kid, I would spend hours doing the most complicated jigsaw puzzles I could find. In fact, I once bought a set of 10 puzzles of various sizes and numbers of pieces, from medium difficulty to extremely difficult (with lots of sky and other areas of all the same color), mixed all the pieces together, and completed each puzzle in order from biggest to smallest, so that each one sat on top of the last.

These days, I love buying useful jigsaw puzzles. Below is a gif of the most recent, which I bought from National Geographic. It's a plastic puzzle that includes an insert place in the bottom so that it can serve as a real vase. The best part is that it was fun to put together. Isn't it beautiful?

And here are some tweets about unusual #jigsaw puzzles:
