Wolf Chickadees Jigsaw Puzzle

I love the way this Wolf Chickadees jigsaw puzzle look SO real. It's such a perfect Spring scene that typically would happen in the forest.

It is the richness of the wolf the Artist has captured nature at her best.  The colour blends with the brook and lush green trees in the background really enhances the picture. Wolf and Chickadees Amazon link

Although the image is quite attractive, those colour blends do tend to make for tricky assembly.   I also like the size of this one being 16" x 34". It's rather and odd size but it gives is a 'poster-like' affect. And she's a beauty when assembled on the table. Can't argue with the price being $2.00 at the Thrift Store with no missing pieces.....another puzzle BINGO!!!

Wolf Chickadees Jigsaw Puzzle Comments...

I appreciate the talent of Artists and the painting of this Wolf Chickadees jigsaw puzzle is a lovely addition to my collection. You can see how rich the colours are.  Although I think it would be quite rare to see a wolf and 2 chickadees ever be that close to one another but the Artist has certainly captured nature.

Board alert! It is not common to have the image size to be a poster-type 16" x 34" but I managed of course. It actually made this one more unique.

It has the great quality of Sunsout's odd shapes but not too drastic. It was the colour blends of browns and whites that were tricky.....there was basically 4 colours to sort: brown, white, green and blue. The trees and sky were the easiest then I did the white tree parts...the rest was of the browns were challenging. 

This Sunsout Wolf Chickadees jigsaw puzzle was purchased at the Thrift store for $2.00 and all the pieces were there even though they were loose in the box and not taped.....taking a real chance there!

Take a look at the two main features of this image...just nature at it's finest captured on canvas.

I have assembled many Sunsout jigsaw puzzles in the past but one of my most favourites is the Wolf Song puzzle. It is a shaped puzzle with several wolves mixed into the image. It is one of my very first shaped puzzles I did.

About: Mastering the Art of Choosing the Right Jigsaw Puzzle

Tips to Avoid Buying Overwhelmingly Difficult Images

Jigsaw puzzles offer a delightful challenge, but there are times when the level of difficulty can be overwhelming. Whether you're a seasoned puzzler or a novice looking for an enjoyable experience, it's important to choose the right puzzle image that matches your skill level and personal preferences. In this article, we'll explore the world of difficult jigsaw puzzles and provide you with a list of tips to help you avoid buying images that might leave you feeling frustrated.

1. Know Your Skill Level

Understanding your own puzzle-solving skills is key when selecting a jigsaw puzzle. Be honest with yourself about your experience and comfort level. If you're a beginner, it's best to start with puzzles that have a lower piece count and simpler imagery. As you gain confidence and experience, you can gradually challenge yourself with more complex puzzles.

2. Consider the Piece Count

The number of puzzle pieces directly affects the difficulty level. Larger piece counts, such as 1,000 pieces or more, can be more time-consuming and mentally demanding. If you prefer a less challenging experience, opt for puzzles with smaller piece counts, such as 500 pieces or even fewer.

3. Analyze the Imagery

Before purchasing a puzzle, carefully examine the image. Complex and intricate designs, such as landscapes with numerous details or abstract patterns, tend to be more challenging. If you're looking for a less daunting puzzle, choose images with clearly defined sections, distinct colors, or simpler motifs.

4. Read Product Descriptions and Reviews

Take the time to read product descriptions and reviews. Puzzle manufacturers often provide information about the level of difficulty, which can help you make an informed decision. Additionally, reading reviews from other puzzlers can give you insights into the puzzle's complexity and whether it aligns with your preferences.

5. Look for Beginner-Friendly Collections

Many puzzle companies offer collections specifically designed for beginners. These collections often feature puzzles with larger pieces, simpler imagery, or even hints and guidance to assist you along the way. Exploring these beginner-friendly options can be a great way to ease into the world of jigsaw puzzles.

6. Seek Variety in Piece Shapes

Some puzzles feature unique piece shapes that can add an extra layer of difficulty. If you're looking for a more accessible experience, consider puzzles with standard grid-shaped pieces. However, if you enjoy a challenge, look for puzzles with irregular or whimsical piece shapes, as they can make the assembly process more complex and engaging.

7. Check for Puzzle-Specific Features

Certain puzzle manufacturers offer features to indicate the level of difficulty. For example, some puzzles may have a "difficulty rating" on the packaging or specify whether they are suitable for beginners, intermediate puzzlers, or advanced enthusiasts. These indicators can be valuable in making an informed decision.

8. Consider Collaborations with Artists

Many jigsaw puzzle companies collaborate with renowned artists, resulting in a wide range of puzzle images with varying levels of difficulty. Some artists may have a distinctive style that makes their puzzles more challenging, while others may focus on creating accessible and enjoyable designs. Research the artist's work and style to ensure it aligns with your preferences and skill level.

9. Seek Recommendations from Fellow Puzzlers

Engaging with the puzzle community, whether through online forums, social media groups, or local puzzle clubs, can provide valuable insights and recommendations. Experienced puzzlers can share their thoughts on specific puzzle images and brands, helping you make informed choices.

10. Trust Your Instincts

Ultimately, trust your instincts and choose puzzles that genuinely spark joy and interest for you. While it's important to consider the difficulty level, it's equally crucial to select images that you find visually appealing and personally satisfying. Enjoying the process of assembling a puzzle is just as important as the challenge itself.

By following these tips, you'll be better equipped to choose jigsaw puzzles that match your skill level and provide an enjoyable experience. Remember, puzzles should be a source of relaxation and fun, so don't be afraid to explore different options and challenge yourself while staying within your comfort zone. Happy puzzling!
