You are absolutely right, Djeco puzzles are wonderful, beautiful designs and exceptional quality. I have a few, all of them came with the poster. It’s strange that there was no poster on the first box, someone forgot to put it in…
It was a second hand puzzle, so must have gotten lost by the original owner. It didn't really matter, though.
@@TheJigsawPuzzler yes, I saw that you put it together nicely. I have the “Rainbow Tigers” puzzle, I’ll watch your other video as a tutorial, I’m really a beginner😊
@@crmier3227 I have Magic India as well, which I am yet to video. Enjoy your new hobby!
Thanks for this. Want to get this puzzle if available in the US.
I haven’t done a puzzle in this style but I am drawn to puzzles with mixed patterns like this. I’m trying to vary my puzzling by doing one out of three images full of patterns (like an Anton Seder collage) and the other two are a more traditional design or illustrations.
@@evelyntheriault3698 I find that varying my puzzles keeps things interesting!
A beautiful jigsaw Puzzle, I really enjoy your channel, it's relaxing, informative and you have tips and tricks on how to solve a big puzzle. The motives and brands are nice too. I am newbie to solving jigsaw puzzles, started with a 1000 pieces puzzle, the "owl autonomy" from Bluebird puzzles and is half way through, it is hardere than expected but I'm enjoying my new hobby 😊
@@elilian7105 Thanks for your lovely comment. Enjoy your new hobby!
@TheJigsawPuzzler thank you 😊

My pleasure. It's an excellent puzzle!

Nice haul, I have a few mindbogglers there are sold here in America at fivebelow. I love Clementoni so much such good quality.
@@JavysPuzzleOdyssey me too! I've never had a poor quality Clementoni puzzle.
I’ve watched a lot of puzzlers solving circular or mandala or grdient puzzles, so my first instinct would have been to solve the round center piece first and then work outwards. I’m not sure I could have completed the puzzle from the right working as you did :-)
I did wonder about doing it that way, but the pieces themselves didn't follow a curve (like they do in round puzzles), which made it harder!
My last puzzle La Jardiniere (Cobble Hill, A Gardener’s Calendar, 1000 pieces) shares a lot of qualities with your puzzle. I’m currently collecting Art Nouveau and Art Deco type puzzles. I’ve learned that there was a strong Japanese influence on Art Nouveau and then Art Nouveau in turn influenced some Japanese artists. My puzzle was also in a grid representing 12 months and straightforward to sort. I think you would enjoy it.
P.s. great choice of music during the Timelapse.
@evelyntheriault3698 that sounds like a beautiful puzzle!
A few months back I listened to a TH-camr who does a lot of traditional vintage puzzles of the type many would call “boring” - photographic landscapes for the most part. Apparently they are often much more difficult than today’s puzzles either because of the image or the quality of the printing or pieces. I think it’s not. Bad idea to mix things up a bit to avoid getting in a rut.
Well you certainly have a varied collection of puzzles to do. Some of which look to be very challenging. Interested to see that you have a W H Smith jigsaw as that is a British brand. That one certainly travelled a long way. I shall be interested to see how you get on with those puzzles you showed us.
@@puzzlepiece9509 Thank you. I'm looking forward to doing them all! I just love the variety.
How do you tell what year the ravensburger puzzle was?
Hello Freyja - If you look at the side of the lid, you should be able to find a year when the puzzle was produced.
@puzzlepiece9509 thanks!
Oh my goodness you have your work cut out for you... the gold one and the wave one looks like challenges...I dont even know what to say about the Rosetta Stone one... . Please do videos of them finished.... and a review on how hard they actually were...Good Luck to you
@@kathylynn1375 I am looking forward to the challenges! I will certainly do videos over the coming months.
I just found your channel! Looking forward to more videos :)
Thanks so much for watching! I hope you enjoy the puzzles :)
Well Hello... your videos just popped up on my feed... I have watched a couple already.. I enjoyed them .. I liked the limited amount of time lapse... I have no interest in speed puzzling but enjoy watching it especially the competitions.....I am from the US.... I have subscribed to your channel and I know I will enjoy more videos...Ravensburger is one of my favorite brands.. like you that image does not spark my interest... I loved Land and Sea by Djeco. I have not heard of that brand.. loved the image but yes the glare I would of not enjoyed.... Happy Puzzling....
What lovely feedback. Thank you :). I don't speed puzzle often - usually it's more of a meditative thing. I have three Djeco puzzles - one new, two second hand - and they're all lovely to do. Thanks for watching!
Good puzzle that, I shall be interested to see if Ravensburger produce another one, Italy perhaps. With competitions you have to accept that you may get a jigsaw whose image is not one you like. As I don't enter competitions I can choose whatever puzzle I wish. The one exception is the BOTYP one which is run by DonnaLouise from For the Love of Puzzles. Usually twice a year. I just do that for fun.
I agree! Ravensburger could make quite a big series if they wanted to, and Italy would make sense. And I do get it about competition puzzles! While I might not buy a puzzle like this one, I did find it to be a good one for a competition. It had lots of variety and for the Pairs, it meant that both of us could work on different parts.
I love to assemble busy puzzles like that! You are actually correct in saying to pay attention to the details and the backgrounds, it makes it so much easier. I am working on a Colin Thompson puzzle right now - Grandad's Locker - 1000 pc...so much fun! Thank you for sharing John! Is the brand Goliath? with Wacky World being the series?
The brand for the Wacky World puzzle is Crown & Andrews Australia, but it may be produced under the Goliath brand in other countries. I love busy puzzles, too! I haven't tried a Colin Thompson one yet, but they look incredible. Have fun with yours!
@@TheJigsawPuzzler Thank you for the info!
Very nice review, thank you for sharing!
Thanks so much for watching. I'm pleased that you enjoyed the video!
your audio is very low. had to use captions. Nice video though.
Thanks for letting me know. I think it improves in later videos, as I made some changes to the audio. And not wanting to sound like Captain Obvious, but have you increased to volume on TH-cam as well as your device? They often act independently. Future feedback on this is welcome as I don't want audio to be a problem!
@@TheJigsawPuzzler thanks for replying. Your audio is better on other videos, and yes, I did check both settings. Enjoying your channel.
Beautiful! What a lovely image to puzzle this time of year… (the false fit issue is unfortunate but the finished puzzle is 🤩).
@@MsErstwhile that's why I persist with it: such a beautiful image makes the false fits less irritating.
What a colorful image! I really enjoyed your time-lapse 😀
Thank you!
Your approach was similar to mine but you finished it much faster than me 😅
I hope you enjoyed that puzzle as much as I did!
@ I enjoyed the top half. Not so much the bottom half.
Oh, definitely! The road, the grass, and the bottom of the car did my head in!
@ glad it wasn’t just me then 😅
This is what puzzling is all about. Looking at the image and deciding what is the best way to tackle it. Full flip before doing anything, pick and place, isolate blocks of colour, do the edge first, partially or leave it to last. It's whatever strategy you think will work for the image to get it done quickly. Your time was very good for that image as it was fairly busy.
Totally agree! It's about being adaptable to the image, and not fixating on a particular "way" of doing a puzzle. I'm usually a border first person, but not necessarily with a speed puzzle!
Congratulations 🎉
Thank you!
Hi John. I hate to criticize but it's so hard HEARING you. I've checked 3 videos now and it's the same thing. You need to invest in a microphone. I'd love to watch your videos but it's too much of a strain trying to hear you.
Hi @ChrisWilson-d8k, I'm really sorry that you're having trouble hearing me! I'm not taking your comment as a criticism at all. Thank you so much for helping me out by letting me know - what I get on my end is obviously different from what you're getting, so if someone doesn't tell me, I'd never know! I can't get hold of a microphone all that quickly, but I will certainly get one in the near future and try to fix that issue. In the meantime, you'll just have to crank up the volume on both TH-cam AND on your device. I apologise for that, but appreciate you letting me know.
In the meantime, I'm adjusting the sound levels on the next video which is scheduled to come out on Wednesday evening (my local time). It is the Rainbow Tigers video. If you are able to have a listen and let me know if there is any improvement, I'd really value your feedback.
OK. So I have adjusted the audio in the next three videos scheduled for upload. I will still get a microphone, but hopefully the adjustments will be good in the interim. Please let me know - your feedback was really helpful.
Beautiful! I bought this a while ago for my hubby for Christmas. I’ll have him watch this video after Christmas.
It's fairly challenging, as you will have seen. I hope he enjoys the puzzle!
Another excellent video from you this morning! Thank you 🙏 What a beautiful puzzle! This has been on my radar for a while but I doubted my ability to assemble it. It looks so complex. Your video has convinced me to purchase and go for it!…😊 (PS- I’d be remiss if I failed to mention how much I appreciate the history and detailed explanations you provided about this magnificent art. ❤). You are one of my favorite puzzle channels. I learn so much!
Go for it! This is a wonderful puzzle to do even though the image looks difficult. Thanks for your lovely comments.
I really like that you always share your puzzle solving strategy! It has helped me approach my puzzles with a smarter plan. Keep up the great videos. You have great content!
Thanks! Enjoy your puzzling!
I absolutely adore Sherlock Holmes- tops my list of “favorite reads” list. SH is my most re-read fiction literature. I’ve lost count! So of course I assembled this puzzle and loved every second of it! Delightful. I enjoy your videos! (By the way, Charles Augustus Milverton was actually killed by a woman who was victimized by his blackmailing. Holmes and Watson “witnessed” the shooting (concealed) but Holmes did NOT actually kill CAM).
Oh! Thanks for the update on Charles Augustus Milverton. I was relying on my (clearly unreliable) memory! I agree that this is a really enjoyable puzzle. Thanks for your lovely comments.
These videos are really relaxing to watch whilst puzzling :) This one is very pretty in blue!
@@NookiPortia I'm pleased you like them, and thank you! Enjoy your puzzling.
Oh my goodness- I have this very puzzle in my stash awaiting its turn to be assembled! 😊
This is such an enjoyable puzzle! I hope you find it just as satisfying to do.
Beautiful! I discovered your channel last night. I’m enjoying your content. 😊 (I’m ‘envious’ that so many avid Puzzlers have scored such lovely puzzles at charity shops! In my area, it’s slim pickings).
Thank you so much! I feel quite fortunate about my charity shop finds. My local charity shop is not that great for puzzles (I live in a tiny rural community). I visit as many as I can whenever I go somewhere new.
Hi! No pressure but is the Plan a Jig for sale? My mums collecting them at the moment and I really would love to get her one for Christmas! Thanks :)
Hi @OliviaMason-g6r, thanks so much for the enquiry. Unfortunately, that puzzle isn't available - it's already been promised to someone else. I have seen a couple on ebay from time to time if that's any help.
@@TheJigsawPuzzler Hi that’s okay. It was worth a try. I’ve seen a couple on eBay too but at the minute they are all London and that is the only one she has! Thanks for taking the time to reply I appreciate it! :)
Really enjoying your channel.
