There is almost nothing more relaxing than sitting with a beautiful puzzle and just letting the pieces fall into place bit by bit. It feels absolutely fantastic for both body and head, and it actually works.
Choose a nice puzzle theme
So does it matter what motif the puzzle has? Yes, I definitely think it does. I think it is important to put a puzzle motif that you like to look at for a long time, because often a puzzle is just something that you puzzle over for a few hours or over several days, maybe even together with family and friends.
Which puzzle theme should I choose?
There are many different types of motifs to choose from. What do you like to do when you have time off? Do you have a hobby that you can get lost in? Then maybe this is the way you should look when you have to choose a motif for your next puzzle.
It could be, for example, that you are very fond of cats. Are you very fond of cats? Then you might also want to have the best time putting together a puzzle where cats are part of the motif. They can be lazy cats, naughty cats, cats looking directly at you while you put the puzzle together or just cute kittens. Maybe your next puzzle just needs lots of cats.
It may also be that you love Christmas with big green Christmas trees, beautiful handmade Christmas decorations, Christmas lights that warm and Santa Claus, who brings gifts to all the children and the childish souls. You can easily do Christmas puzzles all year round. Do you love Christmas? Then there are lots of possibilities, and perhaps Christmas puzzles are also a good way to enjoy Christmas when it is not Christmas. Have you thought about it?
It could also be that you are interested in something completely different. It can be, for example, beautiful green plants and fine colorful flowers, exciting literature and skilled authors, beautiful paintings of animals and nature, planets, yoga, yes, there are many possibilities, which also exist as puzzle motifs.
In the picture you see 3 Christmas puzzles that you can easily put together all year. The puzzles have 500 and 1000 pieces, so there is a difference in how long it takes to put them together. Doesn't it take the longest to put together the puzzles with 1000 pieces?
Where should I put the puzzle?
Many puzzles are large and can be a challenge. Perhaps you choose to put the puzzle on, for example, a dining table or another larger table, where it can remain for a few days. You should expect that many puzzles take up at least 50 x 50 cm, but there is clearly a difference. It is a good idea to read under the individual puzzles how big they are when you have completed them, and of course read about it before you start :) It is not that easy to move a puzzle.

Can I frame my puzzle?
Yes, you can. Many puzzles are so nice that you want to hang them up in glass and frame them. I know it well.
This is how you do it if you want to hang your puzzle in a glass and frame
When you have completed the puzzle, you can glue it to a piece of thick cardboard. Put a little glue on the cardboard at a time, e.g. school glue, and move the puzzle in pieces. Add more glue as you work your way up. Leave the puzzle to dry completely and then find, for example, an old frame at a flea market or make a frame from scratch.
Enjoy.
