Piecing Culture Together
In the midst of the COVID-19 lockdowns, I found myself on a quest for family activities that didn't involve screens. With a lifelong love for puzzles, I was looking for something that was not only fun but also culturally relevant. To my surprise, I couldn't find anything that resonated with us. This journey led me to create something unique, inspired by Toni Morrison's words, "If there's a book you want to read but it hasn't been written, you must write it." And so, Pieces of Us by Us was born.
Our puzzles celebrate Black culture and artistry, showcasing vibrant and diverse works from Black artists. Each puzzle piece reflects the creativity and stories of our community. These premium, culturally-inspired puzzles aren't just for play—they're art that honors who we are.
Puzzling also holds deep mental health benefits, helping with conditions like anxiety, PTSD, and more. As someone who has battled depression, I understand how important it is to nourish the mind. Working on puzzles offers a calm, engaging escape that enhances mental wellness.
Choose puzzles that connect with your heart and home. At Pieces of Us by Us, we're not just about puzzles. We're about bringing meaningful, beautiful artwork into your hands—one piece at a time fostering a sense of community and belonging.
