The Lighthouses of the Gulf of Mexico puzzle by artist Donna Elias features popular lighthouses along the Gulf Coast. In short, this 550-piece jigsaw puzzle is a colorful tour of Gulf lighthouses.
About the Artwork
The design highlights lighthouses from Gulf states including Texas, Alabama and Mississippi. Each one has its own shape, colors and character.
In addition, Donna Elias’s soft watercolor style gives every lighthouse a gentle, inviting feel. As a result, it’s a relaxing puzzle to build.
If you enjoy this design, be sure to look at Lighthouses of Florida and Sanibel Island, also by Donna Elias.
Similarly, the map shows how far apart these lighthouses are along the Gulf.
Where to Start
Start with the border, then build each lighthouse one at a time, using its stripes and colors as a guide, since it stands out right away. Next, work on any labels or map details. After that, piece together the water and coastline. Finally, fill in the background, sorting those pieces by shade.

Received as a Christmas present from my niece. I love lighthouses and she manages to give me a puzzle at Christmas. Since I live in this area and see the Biloxi lighthouse a lot it made the puzzle a favorite although I prefer 1000 piece. I enjoyed this puzzle.
