New jigsaws and activity / puzzle books in store now

Mary Jane from Lemon Tree Lane

Our usual pallet of 1000 piece Holdsons jigsaws has been delayed due to a world wide paper shortage (something to do with making paper masks apparently) and issues with shipping the board from Europe so we have purchased a small range of alternatives to keep you busy in the meantime.
Choose from 500 - 1000 piece animal theme (cats, dogs, butterflies and animals of the world) to 1000 piece Fine Art designs from Renoir, Monet and Waterhouse and for the very adventurous of you we have a few double sided puzzles!
Yes that's right not only do all the pieces have to fit but both sides are printed so you have to get them the right way up as well.

We also have a small number of the latest Christmas Wasgij and the a vintage Christmas puzzle in a gorgeous tin but these won't last long.

For the kids we have 45 - 100 piece puzzles in a range of designs and for the really little ones we have fabulous boxes from Crocodile Creek with ten 2 piece puzzles.

We also have new Christmas puzzle and activity books - just too many titles to mention so best pop in and check out the range!

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Funerals can cost as much as $22,000 and the planning can be stressful especially at a time when loved ones are grieving. Some New Zealanders are re-imagining funerals by making their own coffin or having a relaxed ceremony at home. Would you want a less traditional funeral? Share your thoughts below.
