I have been given a 1000 piece Jigsaw puzzle to do and to review,
as you know I love doing puzzles.
It arrived on Friday.
I was already excited.
It is called Snowdrop Cottage and it is an original premium Ravensburger Puzzle,
Great German Quality.
Picture
It is wonderful to unpack a great quality puzzle
knowing how much I will enjoy doing it.
The joy begins on opening the box… the anticipation….
and I find the pieces, a leaflet, the 2018 catalog and a picture of the puzzle.
The picture – Snowdrop Cottage, perfect for the Winter season is done by artist Howard Robinson.
It is the 11th in a series of English Cottages.
I love the picture.
When I study it more I find the warm cottage, lots of beautiful plants, many birds, different flowers, the well –
all in all a beautiful picture.
I already make my plan in my head how to tackle the puzzle.
Step 1 find all edge pieces
Step 2 sort colours for house and roof
Step 3 go for it and enjoy.
Check out my progress:
The Puzzle was a delight to do. The most satisfying moment is when you put the last piece in. You feel you have achieved something and had fun doing it.
I started on Friday evening, continued on Saturday and finished it off on Sunday afternoon. This 1000 piece puzzle would be a great starter puzzle for someone who has only done 500 pieces, but wants to go bigger. The motive which is the very ‘busy’ and colorful picture of Snowdrop Cottage makes it easy to sort and follow where the pieces go. The soft click technology of the well known Ravensburger Company makes it so satisfying to put piece after piece in and you feel straight away if it fits or not. The different shapes also help solving the puzzle.
The making of the puzzle was fun and relaxing for me.
Puzzles are relaxing and almost like a meditation,
when you can study the picture and enjoy every bit in detail,
no rushing involved,
but take your time and do it calmly.
You can do it together with someone else and have a good and peaceful time.
If you enjoy doing puzzles I certainly recommend this puzzle from Ravensburger
and
it makes a great present too.
There are plenty more puzzles to choose from if you want a bigger challenge or just more fun.
done – hurray
