Hi, Lady lee,
I love a good jigsaw but it has to be the right picture and I usually do them mostly in the winter.I bought a few on E. Bay last winter and still have some to do from last Christmas. The ones I really like are the Wasgij (Jigsaw backwards) series, which has picture on the front of the box and the hilarious picture to complete is different from the picture on the box but is in someways connected to the view.The one I am going to get for next winter is one with a picture of a christmas morning surprise, it has something to do with what santa clause left but you don't see it until completion( does that sound naff?)
I also like the nostalgic ones of paintings of the fiftys or of Victorian scenes ,towns and country scenes are also interesting, but any picture really that grabs my attention. Tried a Thomas Kingade 3D puzzle once but it wouldn't hang together to well,ended up giving it away.
Jigsaws are a great way to unwind and relax if you can get into it, but you need some spare time ,and if this rain doesn't stop pouring on little old England the jigsaw is coming out this weekend.It's called The Mouth of the River and has one thousand pieces.That title is apt at the moment me thinks.
Here's to the happy hours.
Edmond.
