Title: Do you enjoy doing jigsaw puzzles?
Post by: Dynamite2013 on December 11, 2013, 04:24:27 pm
I love doing jigsaw puzzles, I can do a 500 piece about 2 hours, a 1000 piece in one day about 6 hours., I also have done 2500 piece puzzles of course they take longer a couple of days. I love get pictures of animals, scenes like oceans and lakes, or people fishing or camping or doing a garden. I have so many puzzles sometimes I do them over and over again. It makes it nice if someone comes over they can put their 2 cents in to help finish the puzzle. I don't mind it makes good company.

They are fun, but I haven't done one in a long long time.

Yes but I haven't physically done one in years.  Me and my bf used to do one online on MSN Games but since they switched to Skype for the IM the games option is gone.

I love the challenge of jigsaw puzzles; the more pieces the better. I can't say that I am real fast at solving them but once I set them up I do get a lot of help from friends and family.

I have never had the patience to do jigsaw puzzles.  Crossword puzzles are different story, though.

It's been quite some years since I actually did a jigsaw puzzle. I think I am going to get a few for the winter. Maybe I will get a real big one that my and my kids can do together.

500 piece ones are fun to do in winter time when I stay inside more.

I love doing puzzles. I find that I focus only on the task at hand and therefore it helps me unwind from a difficult day.

It's been a while since I've done one, but I do enjoy it.  Used to do a lot of them with my family when I was a teenager.

I wouldn't be opposed to doing one if the circumstances were right (like if the power was out, lol), but in general, I don't have the attention span for them in this digital age.

I used to like to do jigsaw puzzles during the long cold winters.

It has been awhile since I have done one.  Maybe now that I have the idea in my head, I will get one out.

>>>>>and hope the cat leaves the unfinished pieces alone!!

I enjoy doing jigsaw puzzles if only I had more time.  I have a whole bunch of puzzles that I got as Christmas gifts the past few years and I still haven't put any together.  Hopefully one day in the future I can start doing some when I don't have as many personal commitments as I have now.

I love doing jigsaw puzzles. Unfortunately, I don't have as much time as I did when I was younger, so I don't have the pleasure of relaxing and doing puzzles. Hopefully some time will free up in the future so that I can get back to the simple stuff.

I do like doing puzzles but it never seems we get one done with all the running around we do. Because of our dog we can't leave it out so we end up putting it back in the box. Not to say the least the only real flat surface we have is the kitchen table.

I'm not much for puzzles. I don't mind spending a few minutes here and there but that's it. My husband loves them. He only does 1000 pieces and up because they are not a challenge otherwise. He only does them in the winter when he can't be out side as much. He did 23 puzzles last winter.

Not since I was much younger.  I always did enjoy it though, quite the sense of accomplishment finishing one of those 1000 piece puzzles!

I like jigsaw puzzles, but would have too much kitty help these days.  I like challenging ones especially.  I've actually created some on Zazzle including one, I'd like to try myself, of a dried sunflower full of seeds.  :thumbsup:

Doing the small jigsaw puzzles gives me a headache. It has been a long time since I tried doing one.

Yea I like them, my kids and I do them when we have a few hours to burn depending on the size of the puzzle

Yeah, sometimes I do. I don't like puzzles with really tiny pieces though, they almost always manage to get lost somehow no matter how careful I am with the pieces. I also really don't like the puzzles that have really odd shaped pieces, those are really annoying! One of the coolest puzzles I ever put together was a 3D holographic type thing where you can move it (or depending on where you're looking at it from) the scene changes a little bit. The picture was of stars and planets, it was very cool!
