I'm glad you liked our summer gnome puzzle! :)
I love it!
Great video. We have lots of 300 piece puzzles. My husband prefers them and I like them for a break after a really hard puzzle.
That is awesome!
I have a puzzle from MasterPieces that is 400 pieces, I think the line is Family Hour, and it has small, medium, and large pieces, just like the cobble hill puzzle!
Oh I have one on my wishlist!
Your voice sounds better - finally kicked that bug! Great reviews. I have until recently been pretty firmly in the 1000 pc camp, but realized (thanks to social media) that the smaller piece counts, like 300 and 500 mean I can try more challenging images without feeling overwhelmed. I feel, too, that the puzzle brands have woken up to the fact that adult puzzlers like these sizes and the images are less childish nowadays. And lastly, sometimes 300 pc is just right for when I'm doing a puzzle for therapeutic purposes - I'm in a funk or whatever. That satisfying feeling of starting and finishing in one sitting!
Yes!! I'm finally feeling much better!! 300 piece puzzles are so satisfying.
I have been doing the ceaco 300 by Tracy Flickenger. So far the piece quality has been very good! Smooth fit and firm hold. I love her images!
Good to know!
This is very helpful. I do not like the ribbon cut puzzles. I love Ravensburger, Springbok and also the family style puzzles with areas of larger pieces.
Hi. I enjoy 300 piece puzzles, as they are quick and easy. I am now doing Ravensburger 500 piece "Dream Library." Great puzzle.
Sounds great! I just bought that one a couple months ago!
I really enjoy doing the smaller piece count puzzles, especially the larger piece size. They make me feel like a puzzling genius and are a nice break after doing larger piece counts. Ravensburger is my favorite in smaller piece counts but I also enjoy Buffalo, Bits and Pieces, Masterpieces and White Mountain. Great video. Enjoyed it as usual.
So many good ones!
Great video! Nice to hear that the Bits N Pieces multi pack are still a good quality. I've done a white mountain multi pack and while I love white mountain, I did NOT enjoy their multi pack! It's as if they send them all to the same manufacturer for printing/cutting. I enjoy a good 300pc puzzle so this was an interesting video for me
Yes! I was glad to see it was still a good puzzle!
I'm recently really into puzzling and trying to get my hand on all kinds of brands. This is the perfect video for me 🥹🥹 Thank you 🙌🙌
Glad it was helpful!
Great video! I agree with Blanc, Ravensburger, WT MTN and I do enjoy Roseart-Crazyart-Kodak (especially the Puzzle Collector line and Vivids! Also, Eurographics 500 are a great size. All of these are definitely a wonderful choice for those times when you need a quick fix! 🤣🤣
Love Eurographics 500 Pieces!!! Just realized I didn't have one in this group but they are another good one!
300 piece puzzles are great!! Like a quick snack!!!
Totally!
I love doing the smaller piece counts. It feels way less overwhelming. Great video and good information! Want to look into the blanc line for sure.
Glad it was helpful!
I do enjoy your channel, your content and your personality.....I also do a lot of 300-500 piece count .... and enjoy Ravensburger , the Owl image was gorgeous... lots of great images and good brands...... this was a good video for beginners and experienced puzzlers... sharing different brands... I enjoyed your interview you did with artist.... you didn't talk quite as fast.... I have to slow the speed down for every video.... I still haven't caught the name of the smaller Ravensburger line..... I will google it.... thanks for sharing the info.......
I've always been a fast talker and actually watch RUclips on 2x speed. The Puzzle Moments line from Amazon I have linked in the description box.
I found a Ravensburger Puzzle Moment Flowers in New York at a thrift shop. I was so intrigued by the normal sized pieces. Thanks for the info on them.
I love doing 300 piece counts once in a while. Makes me feel accomplished! 😆
That was really interesting, thanks 😊
Glad you liked it!
This is the first video of yours that I watched and you are a beautiful speaker. Thank you for using the correct word "lie" when describing how the pieces configure themselves when put together on a flat surface. What struck me at the beginning of the video is you sharing you have RA. I'm so sorry about that. I've learned recently here on RUclips that RA is an inflammation disease. I learned there's an inflammation reducing diet that helps with the pain. I encourage you to search for it. #phd
Thanks so much for watching! I do go to a dietician but it’s much more complicated than just changing my diet as it’s an autoimmune disease.
@@thecasualpuzzler Oh! Thank you for correcting me. I wish you well and hope that you find permanent relief. #phd Dr. Ken Berry
I really enjoy the family style puzzles!!! Masterpieces is such a great brand- partly because it's SOOOOO easy to come by and good prices.
I totally agree!
I like the large pieces
I quite often do 300 pieces or less as a break from doing the larger count jigsaws. Loved the Night Owl Hoot as it is one I did myself recently. Bits & Pieces is another brand I've done quite a bit of and usually their smaller count puzzles. I like their quirky shapes.
Me too!!
I love White Mountain puzzles. I tend to get their 1000 piece collage puzzles and have collected quite a few of them. Really good customer service too if needed.
That gnome set just ended up in my cart. Love gnomes and will have to get that set at some point.
Thanks for sharing!
The Gnomes are so fun!
@@thecasualpuzzler They are!
I do have a lot of 1000 piece puzzles, but I do like doing smaller piece count puzzles; mainly as a stress relief. I really like the puzzle with the owls. It’s so cute! I need to get that one next week. Great video
Thanks for sharing!
I don't mind the 300 piece puzzles, sometimes that is the only size a particular image is available in. They do go fast and I don't typically do puzzles more than once si I sometimes consider the cost versus reward. I'll usually pick up some when there's a sale.
I'm not married to any particular brand. I don't have a problem with Ceaco, I enjoy their puzzles and they're a good price. I also don't get the obsession with Ravensburger. I've done them and they're nice for the most part but I guess I was expecting something more the way every raves about them. There was a fair amount of puzzle dust and they didn't always lie flat.
When it comes to brands I guess it's to each their own. 🙂
Also each puzzle tends to vary within a particular brand. Some Ceaco puzzles I've loved and other have really missed the mark. For me, Ravensburger tends to be pretty consistent and dust doesn't bother me too much.
Love this video
I love your puzzles
Thanks!
@@thecasualpuzzler you welcome
Are there different terms for two-in-two-out puzzle pieces versus pieces like the Ravensburger and Buffalo pieces? People seem to be using 'ribbon cut' for both types of pieces. This would be useful information, especially for new brands. I just don't enjoy two-in-two-out shape pieces for 1,000-piece puzzles. I loved the video and the great variety of brands and images.
I use ribbon cut as to say all the pieces are in a straight line. It was cut on a grid so all the piece sizes are the same even though there are different shapes. two/two are just the style of piece shape but can also be ribbon cut. At least that's what I've gathered.
Bits and pieces is always soooo fun for me!!
These gnomes were adorable!
Hi from Southern California. I've done puzzles since I was young, ut went a little crazy during Covid. I couldn't even tell you how many I now own but it's probably close to 100. I do like to do them again so I put a post-it on the box with the month and year(s) it was do e. Some I've now done three times. I do cheat a little. When I take it apart after the first time I put all the border pieces in a baggy so I don't have to find them again.
My favorite is Charles Wysocki as I like Americana themes and the fact it always includes a poster. I use an old Typing Stand to hold the poster upright.
Love Charles Wysocki!
I don't consider bagging the edge pieces cheating at all - i do the same thing because to be honest, i love puzzling but get zero pleasure from sorting the pieces before starting. A lot of people enjoy that part but not me, lol
Love that Ravensburger owl image.
So fun!
I love 300pc as well. I have a bunch!! Brands to look for that make some 300s are Eurographics, JaCaRou, Grafika and SunsOut.
Oooo all good ones too!! Just didn't have any on hand!
I love to do puzzles. Just curious have u ever done the brands ingooood & cross & glory
I have a Cross & Glory but havent done it yet. Haven't done the other brand either. :(
Hi! Emilee! Just subscribed to your channel. I love doing artists puzzles. 3-500 pieces matte if possible. I have a question: what is the puzzle that sits on your shelf under the citrus puzzle that has a lot of peachy colors and has houses or a village. I would love that one but do not know the brand. It kinda looks like a Village brand. Would you mind giving the brand name ????
I'm not sure which puzzle you are referring to..was it in this video?
@@thecasualpuzzler Hi Emilee! I was watching the January’s Puzzle roundup and the puzzle I am referring to is on your shelf directly behind your right shoulder and below the citrus puzzle off to your right as you are as we are watching you! It is mallet in size than your citrus puzzle also your citrus one has a little picture in front of it. Thank you. Love your content and personality 🥰
Sorry ! It is smaller in size
I keep all my puzzles unless they have too many false fits….
I don't think I'd have enough room!
I like your videos so far but the other I saw so far said you are not someone that re does puzzles so I could relate to that this one says different
My 300 piece puzzles are my only exception. My 500-1000 pieces I VERY seldom do more than once and often pass along to someone’s else.
Hello Emily
Hey there!
@@thecasualpuzzler hello 👋 Emily glad you said hello when you went live I said hello to you several times times and you didn’t said nothing back your are my inspiration I love to see you puzzle it made me happy when you spoke to me.
Hey sorry I missed you a few times! The chats come in very strange on my end and often come in as a giant clump or are delayed quite a bit.
@@thecasualpuzzler okay I’m glad you replied back to clarify with me I l love watching your lives and you inspire me as a puzzler myself. You are awesome
