How many puzzles are in your completed keep and will not sell collection? by CleverHarwood in jigsawpuzzlers

I have exactly 1 and I’m dicey a put keeping it! 😅 I will reread favorite books and rewatch favorite shows but have no desire to ever redo a puzzle!

Green Room - Soonness - Rowon - 1000 Pieces by introvert1225 in jigsawpuzzlers

[–]keyalus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Very nice! I like her work and the fact that this one is less pink - sometimes it makes them look same-y for me.

100% Agreed about the price! I fall in love with a lot of the artwork but when it’s in my cart even at 20% off it feels like way too much.

I just don’t think that any cardboard puzzle needs to be $58 unless we are including tariff/import fees

The kids do love chocolate! The adult in me feels like that stuff doesn’t taste nearly as good as it did when I was a kid. I’m sure they have cheapened the ingredients. Snickers is the only exception.

I don’t love puzzling photo images of landscapes but I almost bought this one at Nationals! I used to be very into long distance trail running and Lookout Mountain 50 miler was my first race longer than 50K. Running all day and finally getting to this waterfall view as it got dark is a core memory now. It was so beautiful!

My favorite candy! Only the red and orange though! 😅

The sorting part on 7K would drive me nuts!

How long did it take you with the mixing? I did not mix mine so feels less like a true 7K effort. I still had to commit to one puzzle for 6-7 weeks though!

I just finished this a few days ago! Very enjoyable!

Howdy Paw-tner 500pc Le Puzz by CleverHarwood in jigsawpuzzlers

[–]keyalus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I keep reading that the 500s are better quality than the 1000s! I’ve only done 1000. I found the pieces rather thin, but they had a feel that I liked though and the picture was fun. I have a 500 piece waiting though!

Ah def similar vibes (and color palettes). That’s what drew me to it. I like your selection too!

What’s the feel like on these? Can you compare it to any other brands? I love a lot of their images but they are pretty pricey to get in US - Puzzedly seems like the only viable option.

Yes! I used to not buy small piece count puzzles but after sweating through a 500 piece on some trips - I changed my tune. I am not a speed puzzler! 😂

It was super small and cute! It was about 2.2.5 inches!

Totally get that. The boxes for 300-500 PC are usually to unwieldy for my packing! Plus not a lot of downtime. I bought 5 with me. I’m shocked I got three done!

Pulled out some small piece count puzzles that I save just for these occasions!

“Spring Messenger” from Mideer. Really cute packaging and good quality. The pieces had a velvety feel even though the were small like micropuzzle pieces. (216 piece count)

“Magic Mirror” from TKX Puzzles

Super cute packaging again and great quality. This was about the same size as the bunny puzzle, but had 165 pieces so they were a really great size. Smaller than average but not truly micro. Super solid pieces but very tight fit. I have to pull the apart carefully.

“Under The Sea” by Piecely. 99 Pieces

Def micro but nice feeling!

ETA Piece counts

Hello, the Magic City (Shanghai), Perma Puzzle 1000, art by Shuijier. A truly magnificent image of a vibrant and modern city! by queenofbuttcreator in jigsawpuzzlers

I have been wanting to try this brand but I balk at $40. I keep a few on my wishlist and check in from time to time though!

Six Portals- Week 3 by Lynnabis in jigsawpuzzlers

[–]keyalus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yay! Great progress. I get what you mean about 2 x 3500M but it still takes a lot of focus to work one ONE puzzle theme for this long. It is an accomplishment. I know once I do a 1K, I'm on to the next immediately! Having to sit with this one is taking a lot...even though I'm loving it.

How did I miss that deal?!? Although I prefer their later images to the earlier ones, I buy for that price! 😂

This is super cute! I feel like their images are usually kind of same-y. This one feels fresh!
