Have you ever done a custom or handmade puzzle? Tell me about it in a comment!
I got my favorite dc hero “flash” on a 1000 piece puzzle from Venus puzzles. My custom picture was from the cover of flash 53 comic
It was a very high quality puzzle and the colors were very vibrant
I will definitely buy a map puzzle one time with the place I'm from in it.
I'd love to do one of these wooden puzzles but it's just too expensive.
1000pc of my dog in nature, took forever cause alot of the pieces looked the same
Once I made my wife a small anniversary card puzzle. It wasn’t very ambitious (only a dozen pieces), but she really liked it.
The strength to not unwrap a present for a month? Wow
I knew I had to save my genuine reaction for this video!
Ikrrrt??
I have a question. Why dies she always write Jigsaw puzzle? Isn't that just a puzzle? I thought that Jigsaw was that horror movie.
@@olgak.9407 A jigsaw is a particular type of saw used to cut wood into curved pieces, and is the traditional tool for making these puzzles. (The word distinguishes this type of puzzles from others, like crosswords, mazes, etc.)
That makes sense. Thank you very much! :)
This is like the good kind of rich person stuff. It looks durable, well made and something you can pass on to grand children.
This is not a gold encrusted pizza.
Yeah this is expensive because of the quality of it, not just for the sake of it
Also those flower got to be expensive as heck. And they ate not just there to be “fancy”. It actually adds to the puzzle and the finished look. It looks so nice. Although personally, the font looks really outdated and the color kinda doesnt match the pallete. Still this is such a beautiful piece of art.
Yeah i think her way of making money on here and gaining subscribers is probably the best way we've see in a long time, because she cares about her followers and is not rude or gets into drama .
What a great way to describe basically anything
"This is not a gold encrusted pizza"
I agree!
When you mentioned it being a luxury puzzle with that price tag, I thought for sure it would be a whatever puzzle with some over the top packaging and claims about the craftsmanship. But I was honestly blown away. The quality of the pieces, the beauty and artistry of the puzzle itself, it's actually challenging cause of the piece shapes and it's custom made for you. Super impressed though the price tag is still crazy xD
When you're paying that much for a puzzle you aren't paying so much for the materials (although those are very good as well), you're paying for the time it takes to make it, and the thousands of hours it takes to learn how to do that. I don't see myself ever buying a $2,000 puzzle, but can certainly appreciate what it takes to make one.
@@thesledgehammerblog Most definitely. I probably wouldn't be buying one myself too (although I wouldn't mind striving for it one day) but I UNDERSTAND the price. With just watching it, you can tell the care that goes into making that puzzle. It's an amazing piece of art.
Wow, the maker of that puzzle sure is talented!
Also, 11h40m is probably a par time for someone who is moderately good at puzzles when you're in a league of your own!
Maybe I'll have to get a non-puzzling friend to try it to see what their time is 😮
They need to hire Karen to get the correct "Par Time."
@@KarenPuzzles That would be awesome. I would definitely watch that video.
As someone who doesn’t do puzzles at all it would probably take me 11 … days. 😅😅
@@clarkkent7973 she would give the "hole in one" time
My dumb brain saw the _flowers_ and thought you were supposed to remove them before starting (like they were a packing decoration or something). Sure glad you didnt! They were definitely a good and unique addition
Oh my god im glad im not the only one. I panicked when i realized they were supposed to be there cuz if i had received this puzzle i would have taken them all off by mistake and ruined the puzzle...
Me too!!!
lol same
i mean youd notice when you pick them up and notice they are all connected to an individual puzzle piece
Honestly same
It's so cool that Justin thought to put a swivel on the flowers, like what a creative and beautiful puzzle, dude!
It would have been impossible without moving the flowers out of the way!
I had a crazy thought when I watched the unboxing... "If someone proposed with this puzzle, she may say YES!" :D It's so beautiful!
I literally just tweeted this as an "open letter to my future spouse" LOL. I don't need a ring, just this!
I wonder if Par has ever made proposal puzzles! I'm sure they could!
I’m not sure if you guys know who Joey Richter is, but he’s an actor known for his roles in Starkid musicals, and he proposed via puzzle not too long ago ! He talked about it on his Instagram, ‘jonyricker’
@@Bellaboobella157 yes! It was so cute! And I love that they were doing it together as a couple. I remember he said that’s he saved the last couple pieces that actually had the ring part on it so that she wouldn’t find them before it was finished.
I was actually thinking that he had sent her a proposal, having gotten obsessed with her from many hours of youtube binging, and then corresponding via email. She is exactly that adorable, so it could happen!
This custom puzzle is your well-deserved reward for all the effort you have put into this channel. It is a genuine work of art. Unique, a bouquet of flowers - just beautiful!
My husband said the par times were probably meant for mortals doing the puzzle 🤣
I have never seen a puzzle like that before. How interesting. The "flower" pieces add such a cool dimension to this puzzle. I loved it, Karen. I'm wearing one of your shirts as I watch your video. Take care:)
aww, thank you get getting a shirt and for your nice comment!
@@KarenPuzzles I ordered two shirts and I love them:)
Karen after half an hour: two big chunks done
Me after an hour fully focused: THESE TWO FIT YAY!
That puzzle will have to be a named item on your insurance now.
Also sadly in her will.
I just completed my first Par Puzzle yesterday! It is a vintage puzzle from 1969 with 1950 pieces. Justin sent me the link to your video. I was so excited to see your puzzle with all the flowers on it.
Can you imagine having enough patience to cut this out on a scroll saw?
I know, it's so impressive!
It’s such a joy to see a person who can restore your faith in just niceness. No agenda, no spite, just a lovely human. The puzzling is just a bonus to watch her be herself.
I think 100years or so I can imagine this puzzle being sought after by Par collectors sheerly because of its avantgarde-ness. Even if Par doesn't go the avantgarde route, it'll still be an outlier among the many Par jigsaw puzzles.
Thats why he contacted you...he knew how much you would appreciate the process and the work he put into this puzzle. The passion you have says it all ❤❤❤
Wow I have so much respect for this company. I can't even talk about how amazing this is, it's just pure art.
I find it so fascinating how someone can get so excited about puzzles, I never got to do puzzles when I was younger because of poverty, I recently started doing them in quarantine and cannot get enough of them, even though I might not love them as much as you do, I wish to love them.
your username is crazy bro
@@Man-ej6uv ion even remember commenting this i did 2 puzzles and got distracted
All the puzzle pieces looked so overwhelming at first but omg that jigsaw is a work of art! I thought the flowers were just a nice unboxing feature. I might have tried to remove them, not realising they were intentional 😂😂😭😭
i teared up so much while watching this vid lmao i just love people being nerdy abt their hobbies and this one takes the cake cause its so personal and custom and well made im 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 so happy for u
Oh my gosh, this is gorgeous! A piece of art indeed. This is almost romantic. The time Justin spent on creating this customized puzzle for Karen, and the time Karen spent on appreciating and putting it together - aargh it almost feels like an exchange of love letters.
I ship this ✨
Lol, I thought I'd been reading too many romance novels
Yessssss
puzzle maker x puzzler ✍️
The thing about puzzles, for me, is that they all make sense in the end.
This is a beautiful piece.
That’s an amazing custom puzzle.... like the *FLOWERS* in it.
I think this is the most gorgeous puzzle I've ever seen. The company/puzzle maker was so generous to gift it to you, and I feel like the whole vibe of it suits you so well. So impressed with the craftsmanship and creativity to incorporate the flowers AND have them be able to be rotated and arranged. I'm blown away and I'm so happy for you that you can have such a beautiful piece of art that's just for you.
As a woodworker and wood carver I am very impressed with what Justin (Par Puzzle) has created for Karen. Also I was pleased that Karen appreciated the craftsmanship and effort that went into making the puzzle. This is a work of art.
Flower
I wanted to thank you for bringing back my puzzle spirit, with your energy and positiveness. I had a break to my 18000 ravensburger puzzle which all the bags are mixed, but thank to your videos, I am continuing now. Greetings from Turkey
Wow, that's impressive!
That is really remarkable! I applaud your determination. Good luck!
Is this the puzzle lovers way of sending a flower bouquet??? So lovely!!! 😊😊😊
This puzzle is stunning. I'm unfortunately not their target market because of finances, but I really hope people that are see this and it sends some business their way
It is honestly gorgeous!! I was sceptical about the luxury of it but it was really so satisfying to watch you put it together while not knowing what the picture was going to be!
Yeah, "how fancy can a puzzle possibly be?" I said to myself. Then I realised the leaves and flowers weren't supposed to be removed 😱
I mean, this is a work of art from start to finish, the shapes (the seahorse!), the colors and patterns, the flowers!!!!!
seeing those thick cut puzzle pieces reminds me of children's board puzzles with like 10 pieces, which still feel satisfying to put together over cardboard puzzle pieces lol this is a gorgeous piece of art you deserve to own it!
I never even imagined something like this existing - soo beautiful!
I know, right?
I cried too. Everything was so beautiful (as beautiful as a flower???). The fact that people are just focused on making such beautiful things, and Karen is focused on just creating artistic videos, filmed in beautiful ways, and then posting for us, in this challenging time. A break for the length of this video from anxiety was what I sorely needed today, although I didn’t know it.
ОГОНЬ Очень классный канал и интересное видео Супер, 😉 🙏 Заходите ко мне на канал я снимаю много интересных видео 📸 буду рада новым знакомствам 👍🙋♂️ ДАВАЙТЕ ДРУЖИТЬ КАНАЛАМИ ПОДПИШИСЬ ЛАЙК КОМЕНТ . От меня ✍🔔🙋♂️✍🔔🙋♂️😉 🙏
Karen you are 100% right about when you said just filming the close-ups of those big thick puzzle pieces fitting together is so satisfying to watch as a viewer. By the way as I watch this, the image that is appearing looks to be very very beautiful. I can't wait to see what it's going to turn out to be.
I'm so happy for you that you were gifted such a beautiful piece of art from a luxury brand. I can't think of anyone who deserves it more. Sending hugs and flowers. :-)
I correctly guessed it would be a flamingo! I loved those colors and the flower parts as well!
I was so sure that was pizza!
Textured puzzles do exist. Ravensburger does have 3 of them. One with cork, one with a special kind of paper, and one with black velvet. I liked them a lot :)
Actually FLOWERs are a part of the puzzle with velvet on it
I know of the ones with velvet and cork, but don't know the ones with the special kind of paper. Do you have a puzzle name for that, so I can look it up?
@@petrescuework-difficultcas6581 It's the sensori line from Ravensburger
Vino for the cork one
High Society Girl for the velvet one
Sushi for the one with Japanese paper
I also have a wood-lined one called Coffee Ingredients that doesn't belong in the sensori line.
Ooh, I haven't seen those. I'll definitely look them up!
@@KarenPuzzles They are deceptively difficult for 500 piece puzzles. But the cork one is great wall art since you can't really see the separate puzzle pieces when it's completed.
@@ammalyrical5646 Thanks! I thought you talked about Ravensburger's Flokati line, which has animals in black velvet.
As a lover of craftsmanship of every sort, I would love to see a video of them making those puzzle ! If you have the opportunity to visit their workshop, it would be so interesting and different for your viewers !
I think the most enjoyable part of the video is seeing how joyful this puzzle made you feel. You are obviously so passionate about these authentic puzzles and it warms my heart to see you so enthusiastic about something! Great video, and great job explaining everything! You’ve just gained a new subscriber today :)
FLOWER: What a special gift he made for you! This might have been my favorite of your videos. Beautiful, one-of-a-kind... and the puzzle was neat, too!
This is my very first video of yours that I've ever seen, and to see how excited you are over this AMAZING "flower" puzzle, it just makes me want to watch a whole bunch more of your videos. I almost teared up myself when you were talking about how you felt like crying. Thanks for sharing this wonderful experience with us! I really enjoyed it.
What a beautiful, flower covered custom puzzle. I gasped when you found the Karen letters. So fun!
Some of my favorite puzzles to give as gifts were personalized ones; none however included flowers. This puzzle is amazing.
Just phenomenal. All the editing shots are a puzzle of their own too. Amazing camera angles and all the attention you put into everything. Nice to see thick pieces. And the presentation was phenomenally put together as well. Very amazing, Karen. I originally found you being interested in making a vertical puzzle using my thick paint that rises off the surface in a painting, now wondering about seeing the 3D effect in a puzzle too, and to see what was out there. One challenge is that the paint shrinks and expands and any edge pieces don't fit together well when painted over, so am thinking the edges would have to be raw somehow and painting only in the middle of each piece, than dong the whole painting and cut it. A fine art painting with massive texture and sculpture on top would be just so cool though. I'm glad to have found your channel. It is quite a neat idea you've put together here. Code: flower.
My husband got me a Howl’s Moving Castle custom puzzle once. It didn’t have a single flower on it though 😊
*gasp* A pReSenT? fOr MeE? for MwAh? For Lil Old KaReN???
lol i praise this idk why don't ask I'm crazy haha
Karen you deserve that luxury puzzle more then any other puzzling youtubers out there.
❤️
Mary Chritsmas🎊🎄🎊
I definitely understand why it was gift-wrapped, because it’s such a beautiful gift.
This is so great! i can't imagine how amazing it must be to do a custom puzzle. (edit after I watched the video)The flowers were such a nice addition.
This is the most beautiful puzzle I have ever seen. WOW. The "flower" pieces just add so much dimension.
Those ''flowers'' were such a good idea, congrats Justin. I really love personalized puzzles. I have a 2000 pieces puzzle where is a photo of me and my sister and it's just so nice.
That's so cool
WOW, this is absolutely beautiful. I'm *so* glad that Par was willing to send you a custom puzzle, because I hadn't heard of them and now am obsessed! I agree with you, and hope that Justin continues to add the 3D flower elements! :)
I actually HAVE made my own custom wooden puzzle on a bandsaw, I actually completely forgot about it until just now!
That is one of the most beautiful puzzles I have ever seen. The colors are amazing and the added flowers and leaves not only add a challenge, but give it character and movement. :)
confession: sometimes when i watch your videos i skip to the end just to see the finished puzzle! but today i enjoyed the process so much i sat through it !
Ok, Karen freaking out about puzzles is so cute, i cant handle it.
That was a such a joy to watch! This year especially it’s so nice seeing people genuinely grateful and happy. Thanks for bringing a smile to my face today!
Oh my god! The slotting in of the pieces into each other is soooo satisfying, and I could watch/do that all day! Aaaaand this flowers were cool too.
Ikr
That's one of the most beautiful puzzles I've ever seen!! 😍😍😍 And those flowers, my God!! I'm in LOVE! And honestly, I'd have teared up if I received a custom puzzle like that as a gift T-T just imagine..
Flower. I never thought i would be watching someone put together puzzles. I love it!!
I love how beautiful it is, and how grateful you were to receive this! ☺️
Well, He was right. I’ve never seen anything like this before!!!
This puzzle blew me away!!!!! The delicate flowers detail is just. So so beautiful.
Who needs a designer bag when you can own this amazing thing
I love how the Flower(s) were incorporated. You can always tell when an artist takes his craft and makes something they enjoy. This is beautiful. The custom puzzle I'll always remember was one my high-school sweet heart made for me. He had a really important question for me and he made a puzzle out of it. I was only allowed to answer his question by giving him a single puzzle peice back...... it said "Will you go to prom with me? Yes No" Every word was broken up into multiple pieces except for the word "yes" was all on a single peice. Cheeky little boy, eh. 🥰
This is an absolutely gorgeous puzzle! I love the flowers and I love the aesthetic of this puzzle. I can only imagine how honored you feel to have a OOAK puzzle made just for you! I could feel your joy radiating through the video :)
I love the colors and everything about this puzzle, it’s gorgeous. ✨Congrats Karen✨
This puzzle is so beautiful and creative and something that reflects who you are. Such an honour to have it made just for you. The flowers really bring it to life - I can imagine them moving so gently in a breeze 🥀🌺🍃
This is amazing! So glad you were given the opportunity! You deserve it!
I've never thought of adding flowers or other 3d elements to a puzzle. What a genius idea.
I loved all of the flowers and I can't wait to see what you bought yourself for your Christmas present, you are just the best Karen, thanks for letting us watch you having fun with puzzles.
My brother used to make puzzles out of wood and I would paint them. It was fun and made children happy. Even personalized some. I do so love the flower with the bird puzzle you finished. I would still be working on it. That is if I started Dec. 1st 2020. Great work and anxious to see new work for 2021.
Your enthusiasm in this video is infectious and I am living for it. Too bad these are so expensive, as I would love to do one now!
Omg that is beautiful! How you even got started on that amazes me.
The fact that she can’t stop smiling makes me so happy, Karen is such a lovely person
I never comment on videos but I just found you recently and want to support you! I love your videos and personality; thank you for being you!!!
Girl. I was watching your videos, and I thought thought : I wanna do a puzzle. I have one here. And I started a 5000 piece GIANT jigsaw. HELLLLP
That's a real undertaking! You've got this!
Damn...
*what were you thinking??*
LOVE this puzzle! What a treasure.
karen and her wholesomeness really makes me happy. im so very glad to have discovered your videos!
Those puzzle pieces fit and lock together so perfectly! It looks amazing.
This is an incredibly beautiful puzzle. What an honour to receive this as a gift. 💗🦩🌸

Amazing puzzle. So beautifully done. And there should be more puzzles with a flower 😀
I had so much fun watch you be so giddy about this puzzle. We love you Karen!! ❤️
Such a wonderful gift for a wonderful puzzler. You deserve every piece of this puzzle and more. Thank you for sharing the joy!
"Flower" Hi Karen, I'm so happy for you! You deserve every single piece of this puzzle! I'm pretty new here, but today me and my husband did a Ravensburger Exit Puzzle and we had a really great time together, we are really happy! Thank you for inspiring us!
flower, my dad and i did a ravensburger exit puzzle today too! i would never have thought to with out your videos.
Me watching a festive flower video in February: "I guess it really did take her this long to finish it."
I’m binge watching your videos, and just finished this one! The flower detail was incredible! My grandparents made my daughter a puzzle. My grandma was an incredible artist, so she painted the image, and my grandpa cut the pieces. It was such a special gift, and something that she will treasure forever! 🥰
Wow what an amazing gift, and also what an amazing puzzle. I've never heard of this company but their craftsmanship looks next level! I love that they personalized it especially for you with your name in it, and the color pieces were so pretty in all those shades of pinks. The odd shapes of the puzzle pieces and the puzzle itself being not square looked really challenging. But when you pay that much for an experience you'd love for it to last for awhile. The pieces were so thick and the way it went together looked so satisfying. Thank you for sharing and thank you to Par Puzzles for sending such a great puzzle that we all got to be a part of experiencing.
I’m like crying with excitement for you right now. I’d never heard of par puzzles until this moment and omg your name is in it!!! Congrats!!!! I’m so excited for you!!!! New wishlist item is to one day have the money to spend on a par puzzle!!!
This was an amazing puzzle. I haven't done anything close to this type of puzzle. The flower pieces are very clever. I don't know how you waited a month to open it!
I was aware of Par but this is just amazing. I guess my knowledge of puzzles is FLOWERing. Very cool! Thanks for sharing.
The flower(s) and leaves really add to the uniqueness of this puzzle. It was so enjoyable to watch you assemble this luxurious puzzle!
This is so flipping cool! Almost makes 2020 less of a trainwreck!
15:38 maybe you can't tell what it is because you've been working with small details and being so up close but I'm pretty sure it will end up to be the head of a flamingo
I love how the pieces are cut! And the design is absolutely gorgeous :O
OMG what an absolute treat!!! Merry Christmas, Karen!
The “flower” touch is so pretty! Never seen anything like that
So cool! And what a giant flex that you got a customized puzzle and it’s 3-D.

Years ago I made some puzzles for my nieces by gluing pages from children's books to thin plywood and band-sawing into large pieces. It's a lot of work so I can only imagine the time that goes into cutting a Par type puzzle.
It was really satisfying watching you build the FLOWER/flamingo puzzle. Reverse schadenfreude:-) Thanks for sharing your experience.
It’s my first time seeing a person be emotional about a box of jigsaw puzzles. Make that two people now ♡
Is is strange that this video made me cry? I was just so happy for you and the puzzle is so beautiful. What an amazing design. I predicted it would be a peacock - I was close! Also wanted to let you know that it was my birthday last week and I got a puzzle as a gift :) You're rubbing off on me. (Flower!)
I will never buy one of these but this was so interesting. I hope we can see more interesting things going on in the puzzle making community like this. Such a beautiful finished piece.
