Jigsaw puzzles

https://www.myphotopuzzle.co.uk/

I have used this firm a few times when ordering jigsaw puzzles for my husband and daughter, who enjoy doing them. You send a photo and the firm turns it into a puzzle, which they do well.

Re: Jigsaw puzzles

Not a fan of Jigsaws. I do buy them for my elderly neighbour from car boots though, she loves the Wasgij puzzles. I have found her a lot that way.

I hate jigsaw puzzles myself, being forced to do them as a kid!

Our daughter gave my husband one with photos of our grandchildren on it a few months ago, which he liked.

Re: Jigsaw puzzles

I love doing jigsaws but haven't done one for a long time! It's maddening when the last piece is missing! (sometimes sabotage!)
I used to love doing the Walt Disney round jigsaws with my children when they were little. They had many different shaped pieces as well as normal pieces, i.e. birds, planes, butterflies etc!

I could but the light in my bedroom isnt good enough to see to do a jigsaw by ...I only have two bedside touch lamps and a very dim ceiling light which I never use ...I like to do jigsaws by natural daylight really as you can see the subtle colour changes on pieces better ....fussy arnt I? lol
