What kind of 1,000-piece jigsaw puzzle should I buy?

Make sure the theme is one you'll enjoy so you'll be motivated to finish it.

What are the best 1,000-piece jigsaw puzzles for beginners?

Spilsbury's 1,000-piece jigsaw puzzles may not be the best place to start for a beginner. Smaller projects, like our 300-piece puzzles, may be a better place to get into things. Though, if you're looking for a challenge, go for it! To make your first few 1,000-piece puzzles a bit easier, you may want to look for products with images that don't have that much color variance. That will make it easier to separate pieces by color to tackle the image.

How long does it usually take to solve a 1,000-piece puzzle?

The time it will take you to complete any puzzle depends largely on skill, experience, and the time you invest. One person may finish a puzzle with 1,000 pieces in a few hours, whereas another may take a week.

What's the best strategy to complete jigsaw puzzles with 1,000 pieces?

There's no proven strategy for puzzling. Some people prefer to start with the puzzle's perimeter and work their way toward the center. Others like to group pieces by color and assemble piece by piece. Some work left to right. One approach is not necessarily more effective than the rest. Puzzling is supposed to be fun, though, so don't worry too much about how fast you are! Puzzle accessories can make the process a bit easier, however, by helping you stay organized and comfortable while you put together your newest puzzle. Once you've finished putting your puzzle masterpiece together, be sure to learn how to glue and frame your jigsaw puzzle so that you can keep your puzzle preserved for as long as you'd like.

How are jigsaw puzzles with 1,000 pieces made?

Jigsaw puzzles get their name because they were originally made with a jigsaw, also known as a scroll saw. Today's methods also include the use of metal template grids, lasers, and a process called random cutting. Generally, once images are selected, they're scanned, edited, and printed on cardboard before being cut into pieces, evaluated for quality assurance, and boxed.
