My Review of the Cobble Hill Holiday Hobby Jigsaw Puzzle

I feel privileged to be the first to present to you these NEW 2017 Christmas versions and maybe they will be your choice in the New Year. I have completed the 'Village Tree' and I am going to assemble the 'Christmas On The Farm' next.

I had a few holiday hobby jigsaw puzzles selected to do this Christmas however when these arrived at my door last week they instantly captured this season's 'hot-spot'!  After all....just look at them....I know with ALL my will-power there is no way I could resist doing them....I admit - I have a HUGE weakness for Christmas jigsaw puzzles and a brand NEW Cobble Hill just seizes my attention like a magnet.

The first one, titled the Village Tree, was such a delight to complete. The  Artist is Persis Clayton Weirs, it is 1000 pieces and measures at 19.25" x 26.625" OR 48.9 x 67.6cm. It's a perfect holiday hobby jigsaw puzzle.

After sorting the main 7-8 colors into piles, then doing the border and the second round of sort/layout onto the other boards, I determined the Christmas Tree would likely give me the most challenge.  And I was correct (sometimes these things have been known to surprise me but this one didn't) however between lining up the lights and decorations into their 'general area' and paying a WHOLE lot of attention to the shapes of the pieces, I strived through it.

Other than the Village Tree itself, the rest of the image was fairly easy to put together. It's very fun to see the decorations in the windows and the people at the skating rink. It certainly has all the makings of a great holiday hobby jigsaw puzzle including the quality of the board and the type of box Cobble Hill uses.

One thing I have determined between some artist's paintings verses photos or digital imagery ......paint brush strokes are a little more trickier than a clean cut image but not too much more.

All said above, I am really excited to share the Village Tree with you. It only took about 12 hours to complete by a single person which makes it ideal for a family group to enjoy as a holiday hobby jigsaw puzzle. 

You can't really go wrong choosing a Cobble Hill jigsaw puzzle as they do produce top-of-the-line products.....that is not a marketing plug for them - it is my personal opinion.

Happy puzzling....

I consider Cobble Hill Puzzle Company products to be 'top-of-the-line' level. I have many included in my own jigsaw puzzle collection and I recommend the same for you too......Happy puzzling!

About Cobble Hill Jigsaw Puzzles

Cobble Hill is a Canadian company that specializes in producing high-quality jigsaw puzzles for adults. The company has gained a reputation for producing visually appealing and challenging puzzles that are made from durable and eco-friendly materials.

One of the standout features of Cobble Hill puzzles is their unique designs. The company collaborates with artists from around the world to create puzzles that are not only challenging but also visually stunning. They have puzzles featuring iconic artworks such as Gustav "Klimt" puzzle and festive designs like  "The Village Tree". They also offer themed puzzles such as animals, landscapes, and nostalgia.

Cobble Hill puzzles are made from high-quality, recycled materials that are durable and environmentally friendly. The puzzle pieces are thick and sturdy, making them easy to handle and assemble. Additionally, the pieces fit together smoothly and accurately, ensuring that the finished puzzle looks seamless and well-crafted.

Another notable feature of Cobble Hill puzzles is their commitment to sustainability. The company uses recycled and biodegradable materials in their puzzle production, and they also use vegetable-based inks in their printing process. Additionally, they donate puzzles to nursing homes and Alzheimer's facilities to help individuals with cognitive challenges.

In terms of pricing, Cobble Hill puzzles are generally affordable, with prices ranging from $15 to $25 for most designs. While they may be slightly more expensive than some other brands, the high-quality materials and unique designs justify the cost.

Their social media strategy has helped them to build a loyal following of puzzle enthusiasts and has helped them to stay relevant in a competitive market.

One area where Cobble Hill could improve is their range of puzzle sizes. While they offer a decent range of sizes, they do not currently offer puzzles with more than 2000 pieces, which may be a drawback for experienced puzzlers looking for a greater challenge.

In conclusion, Cobble Hill is a brand of jigsaw puzzles that offers high-quality, visually stunning, and eco-friendly puzzles that are enjoyed by puzzle enthusiasts of all skill levels.
