{"product_id":"sweet-shop-kittens-wooden-puzzle","title":"Sweet Shop Kittens Wooden Puzzle","description":"\u003cp\u003eThree kittens take over a tiny old-fashioned sweet shop. One sits on a brass scale, one paws at a gumball jar, and a third dozes among scattered candies. Tall jars of striped sweets and pink rhubarb drops line the shelf. A small wooden sign for Uncle Tom's leans in the corner. The whole shop smells, almost, of sugar and old wood. The Sweet Shop Kittens Wooden Puzzle brings that scene to your table for a calm, rewarding build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout This Design\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis rectangle wooden puzzle shows a vintage candy store filled with sweet jars, hard candies, and three small kittens. A grey tabby kitten sits in the cup of an old brass scale on the left. A ginger and white kitten stands on the counter, paws on a clear jar of green gumballs. A larger sleepy tabby is curled below them on the wooden counter beside scattered wrapped sweets. The shelves behind are crowded with labelled jars: Paw Drops in pink rhubarb and tuna flavour, Aniseed Twist, Rhubarb and Custard, and Whine Gums in a bright striped jar. A pink lollipop, a striped candy stick, and tiny coloured sweets are scattered everywhere. A small wooden sign for Uncle Tom's leans on the right shelf. When you finish the puzzle, the shop feels like a memory you almost have.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy People Love the Sweet Shop Kittens Wooden Puzzle\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCat lovers and people who grew up on penny sweets both reach for this one. The mix of tiny kittens and old-fashioned candy jars gives it a warm, nostalgic feeling. The hidden whimsy pieces are themed to the scene: a tiny lollipop, a small wrapped sweet, a jar lid, and a kitten paw print are tucked into the build. Finding them turns the packed shelves into a slow little treasure hunt. People who finish this one often say it reminds them of a corner shop from childhood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePremium Craftsmanship in Every Piece\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sweet Shop Kittens Wooden Puzzle is cut from 4mm basswood plywood, the same warm, light wood we use across our whole range. Basswood holds its shape over years and does not bend or fray the way cardboard does. Each piece is laser-cut, so the edges are crisp and the click between pieces is firm. The art is printed straight onto the wood with UV-cured inks, which means the bright pinks and warm wood tones stay rich even in a sunny room. The puzzle ships in a sturdy gift box with a printed cover so it doubles as the storage between builds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: 4mm basswood plywood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: Rectangular outer panel, irregular laser-cut pieces inside\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrint: UV-cured, fade-resistant inks printed directly on the wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDifficulty: Level 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinished size and pieces, by size option:\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eKids: 21.4 × 14.7 cm \/ 8.4 × 5.8 in, 118 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSmall: 30 × 20.6 cm \/ 11.8 × 8.1 in, 202 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMedium: 41.6 × 28.7 cm \/ 16.4 × 11.3 in, 305 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eLarge: 56 × 38.8 cm \/ 22 × 15.3 in, 505 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePieces: irregular shapes with hidden whimsy pieces themed to the design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackaging: recyclable gift box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded: full-color reference poster to guide assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA Thoughtful Gift for Cat And Sweet-Tooth Lovers\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis wooden puzzle makes a great gift for the cat fans on your list, but it also suits anyone with a soft spot for old corner shops. It works as a birthday pick for a grandparent who remembers penny sweets, a Christmas present for a niece who loves cats, or a thank-you gift for a friend with a candy jar at home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Assembly Experience\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sweet Shop Kittens is rated Level 3. The three kittens and the brass scale are the natural place to start. From there the labelled candy jars break into colour clusters by lid and label that make for satisfying medium-difficulty work. The slow finish is the wall of small wrapped sweets, where tiny colour shifts make each piece feel earned. Most builders finish the Small in one focused sitting, the Medium across a weekend or two, and the Large over several relaxed evenings. A full-colour reference poster ships in the box, which helps when the sweets and labels start to look alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Display or Store It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the last piece clicks in, slide a thin sheet of card under the panel and lift it as one rectangle. A slim frame in honey oak or soft cream suits the sweet-shop palette best. It looks at home in a kitchen, a playroom, or above a coffee cart where the candy colours catch the eye.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Opus Puzzles","offers":[{"title":"Kids","offer_id":44402354094131,"sku":"WP10272-KID","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Small","offer_id":44397635305523,"sku":"WP10272-S","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Medium","offer_id":44397635338291,"sku":"WP10272-M","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large","offer_id":44397635371059,"sku":"WP10272-L","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0676\/3292\/2675\/files\/WP10272.webp?v=1780553737","url":"https:\/\/www.opuspuzzles.com\/products\/sweet-shop-kittens-wooden-puzzle","provider":"Opus Puzzles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
