    I love doing jigsaw puzzles. Just thought I'd say hi, on a return visit here. :)

    Wow, it reminds of my Snow White & the 7 dwarfs (glow-in-the-dark) jigsaw puzzle. Have to unpack them and start all over again. Thank you for sharing.

    Yes, I really enjoy jigsaw puzzles. I usually do the thousand piecers; but lately have demote myself to the 500 piecers as this is about all the time I have to work on them. They are so addictive once you start one...who can wait till it's finished?

    I love jigsaw puzzles. I always start with the border first.

    OOh my! Can't even imagine tackling 24,000 piece puzzle. I think the 1000 and 1500 piece ones are more my style. But, I do like the one of Barney and Miss Beazley. That's an attractive puzzle.

    Whew, jigsaw country indeed! I've always enjoyed jigsaw puzzles and like to start them from the middle and work out to the edges......kidding, I'm an edger just like most folks.

    I've enjoyed working jigsaw puzzles all my life. A few years ago we got out our collection of jigsaw puzzles again and began one of our favorites. From that moment on, hubby & I had a jigsaw puzzle going continuously for an entire year! Once we finished all the jigsaw puzzles we owned, we donated them to a church thrift store and bought (for about $1-$2 each) several more. We worked the puzzles together and separately. Seems that neither of us could walk past the 'puzzle table' without stopping to place just 'one more piece' (which usually led to 30-60 minutes of puzzle time! :-) It was such fun.

    I'm adding this terrific page full of 'puzzle stories' to my 'Board games & jigsaw puzzles' lens!

    I do love jigsaw puzzles though it seems I don't have time to do them any more. I like to start on the border for sure but I will stop and do another part if I see something that looks interesting to work on. I just saw a beautiful button jigsaw puzzle that is now on my wish list!

    I've always loved doing jigsaws. Once I've started one, I find it quite compulsive and will spend hours on it if necessary. I'd never heard of the biggest jigsaw before and was quite shocked to see how much it cost on Amazon.

    I love putting jigsaw puzzles together and I definitely believe that the edges must be put together first.

    Well designed lens on a very interesting topic...everyone would secretly want to complete a jigsaw puzzle!

    I love jigsaw puzzles--the harder, the better. There's one series out there that doesn't have borders (even the actual edges are cut as if there's another row), and have three extra pieces packed in each box. Fiendish.

    the hardest puzzle I ever worked, though, was 1000 pieces of a photo of a pile of popcorn....

    I love putting puzzles together. It was something we always did in the winter when I was growing up. Unfortunately, I don't have the time anymore.
    Great lens

    I LOVE puzzles! I actually finished one about 2 weeks ago, and have another one waiting!

    I LOVE this lens. I am going to feature it on my http://www.squidoo.com/Youngbrain Because doing jigsaw puzzles is one of the ways to "Keep Your Brain Young and Beautiful"! It helps with dementia and Alzheimer's.

    5*

    We do one or two puzzles each year. Love them in the winter when there are fewer activities to enjoy outdoors.
