Have you ever done a double sided puzzle? Would you want to take on this challenge?
hello!!
Karen Puzzles I have not done it before but would DEFINITELY try the challenge ❤️🧩🧩🧩
I have a Nasa Jupiter double sided puzzle so ill defidently try this!
I haven't done one, because I like to frame my puzzles and I don't want to lose a picture lol
🌴~Beach~🌴
When I was little, my parents had a friend who went to Prague, and she brought us back a couple of gifts. One of them was a puzzle, which she had put together, flipped over, written us a letter on, and then took back apart. So we got to put together a puzzle, and then when we finished, we flipped it over to read her letter!
Wow!! That was really something! So fun
this is SO sweet
I've been watching Karen's videos while working on family Christmas gifts. I couldn't think of a nice gift, so I bought some puzzles and decided to put them together and paint a landscape from their travels on the back. I'll take them apart and gift the puzzles, and the paintings will be a surprise.
@@natb4491 thats so cute! Did they love them?
@@datgaydangernoodle1315 Yes! The project turned out really well!
At first I thought the title was flipping every 2 minutes 😳 that would have been a 'beach' to do haha
haha, there would have been no time for puzzling in between all those flips!
Same XD
"I keep trying pieces in the wrong spot...I say as I get three of them right"
shes my favourite😭♥️
If you had the space you could have set up a smaller board to lay all the pieces out on which you could also have flipped over every time you flipped the puzzle . That way you could always see the pieces for whichever puzzle side you were working on and wouldn’t have to go through the process of individually turning them over every time .
I thought about that, but pieces were more likely to fall out the sides when they were layered on top of each other, and I didn't have the space/fabric to put them all out in one layer 😌
@@KarenPuzzles Yeah, you need a bigger table!
I use up to half a dozen trays upon which to sort out my pieces and place them up the right way.
Also I have a few pieces of 1/8th inch thick hardboard , cut to hold typical 500, 1000 and 2000 piece puzzles.
You seem inundated with new puzzles. They will keep you busy for weeks (:- ). A mountain of pleasure ; with a steep gradient.
Suggestion: use binder clips around the edges. It’s like having several hands. You can then hold it in the middle as you flip.
Everytime I see you having the pieces in the box I think about the last time I tried to puzzle and I discovered after a few days that every night my dog would come and eat some of them.
nooo 😭
Your dog is pure evil
I really love coming to your channel. It's such a happy place. I've been disappointed by a couple of my long term subs lately. Bur here it's always a good time, like a day at the beach :)
aww, I'm so happy you're liking my videos!
Would you like to finish your own puzzle :)
I cannot stop watching your videos. There's something so mesmerizing about them...
One of the fun things about this channel is puzzling out to work words like “beach” into a comment.
You left such a good comment you deserve a trip to the beach!
beach
I'm new to your channel, but it feel like it's like Let's Plays for puzzles. It's a lot of fun to see you solving these puzzles. I still love your attitude, it really sells these videos. Watching them is so much fun. I'll work on a couple of puzzles on my own this weekend. Your videos have been inspiring to get into those pieces! You have a great channel. I hope you have fun with it for quite some time. You're great!
I'm a fan of Gary's photography, he gets really interesting shots of beach and water. Love his minimal works.❤️
I haven't done a double-sided puzzle,but it looks difficult. Also I like the beach,that warm feeling... if there's no wind,I mean.
A long time ago I did a double-sided puzzle. It had the same image on both sides, but one side the picture was turned 90 degrees compared to the other side. It was definitely challenging! I glued it together and kept it for many years.
My "evil" brother gave me 2 of these type of puzzles. Plus the pieces are basically the same shape. I only wish you could shine a black light (or sonething equivalent) on one side to find out if you actually solved it correctly.
I loved the water scene. The beach scene looked sooo challenging! Great job!
What a lovely channel! In such a horrible time in the world it’s really nice to just take some time to watch somebody just really enjoying puzzling. Thank you :)
Ah, I thought “eh, I get it, I don’t have to watch it” when I first saw the thumbnail, but a few days later, the curiosity got me. This has been fun, so thank you. 🙂
Also, I typically prefer to watch non-music videos without sound. Thank you for articulating your speech so well that the auto-captioning very rarely misses.
I can barely do a regular puzzle. I think your great at doing any kind of puzzle.🙂
Would you like to try a regular puzzle :)
Yesss, another Karen Puzzles to play as I crochet. Told ya I'd start a channel, next month I'll be doing your puzzle inspired crochet sweater! Stay tuned for that
I worked on a crochet sweater for my 3 year old while watching this!
I actually have a gray malin puzzle. (It’s the other beach one.) And my puzzling table is clear glass. So my sister sat underneath and worked that way while I worked on top! It was funny seeing how she would fit a piece into my side that I definitely wouldn’t have been able to get!
Now I want to see Karen and Katie try that
Amazing video as always.
If you want a good challenge try doing two puzzles at the same time and switching every 20 minutes.
Laying down on the beach with a fruity drink sounds great right now.
Hi Karen! I have not and probably will not do a double sided puzzle. Just not for me. I did enjoy your video though. The last puzzle I put together was Ravensburger's Sanctuary Of Knowledge 1000 piece puzzle. It was super fun and next time I do it my husband wants me to glue it and frame it. Oh yes the beach does sound awesome right now. Oh and from one puzzler to another "Happy Puzzleing"
Karen just has so much positive energy and she really makes my day. 😘
That was fun to watch! I think I would have secured 2 sides with binder clips before flipping since I’d probably have been flinging them around. And then I’d go to the beach!
Omg I saw this exact same puzzle on amazon last week and I thought ojhh hope Karen review it first.. I swear haha .. conclusion: I want it.
That was really fascinating to watch! I don’t think I’d ever do a double-sided puzzle. Too much like hard work. I’d rather sit on the beach! 😬
Really enjoyed this video. Love the 'flipping' idea.
Another great video Karen, I am so happy it didn't end up on the floor!
I do think that a double sided puzzle should be the same quality on both sides. Beachy fun though!
Beach. It was a very interesting puzzle. Never seen or done something like this before.
I really appreciate your excitement in jigsaw puzzles. 😍 It's contagious. 😁
It is! I just bought one (but not beaches)
Ooh, I like the idea of double sided puzzles. I was hoping that both sides would be of equal quality. Beach!
My coworker did this puzzle! Would love to enjoy a good book at the beach but it’s been an unconventional summer. The silver lining has been more time for puzzles!
I also wanted to say that this was a really creative and cool idea that you had with this puzzle.
The entire video I’m practically screaming: get up off the chair to flip! It would be so much easier!
I was screaming "push your chair back and spin the puzzle 90 degrees before you flip" since then it would have been flipping the short sides and not hitting stuff.
Beach. I just want to thank you for your videos. The last month i binged everything you've uploaded. I have just started coming back from exhaustion syndrome and you have woken up my joy of doing puzzles again, even though i have not done it for several years. Turnes out doing puzzles is helping me regain energy. Thank you ❤
hi there...yes ive done a two sided puzzle before ...not only was it two sided..it was the same image on the other side but turned a quarter of a turn. it was really fun to do.
ive also done borderless puzzles too
Yes I've done a double sided jigsaw puzzle, my daughter bought it for me as Birthday present. I Love It....
love how she’s super honest ❤️
Would love to be at the beach right now. Love the way you did the two-sided puzzle very interesting. And glad you didn’t have a complete disaster
Nice review about this double-sided beach puzzle. Nice work Karen!
Love your channel Karen. I have not done a double sided puzzle but after watching your video would like to try it. Beach!
I did a Warhol double sided puzzle. One side has a big soup can and the other side had a bunch of little soup cans. I did the big soup can shiny side, but flipped some of the pieces when I was stuck. Put them together and then flipped them back. Flipping and seeing the picture on the back side is really amazing. Loved your beach puzzle.
Beach. Postcards are cool, but I like when the poster is bigger than the image on the box. Personally I think 21st-century puzzle companies should include a digital download of the image so you can zoom in on a tablet or laptop. It could even be watermarked I suppose. That's Positano, Italy at 20:00.
I used to have a hexagon puzzle keychain that was rugrats theme and front and back were aranged differently so you could only have one side solved at a time. Was a great way to pass the time.
Beach. I love the fact that you try different challenges. You add layers to what can be mundane to watch. You make puzzling interesting.
Cool concept!
Galison has some beautifully made puzzles (one sided ones - I've never tried a double). I would love to see you do one of the Michael Storrings puzzles. The "Paris" one is one of my faves. He also has one of the beach at Coney Island :-)
I love jigsaw puzzle and I love your channel and your ideas. 😘😘😘
That means so much to me! ❤️
Beach. That was cool. I like that you not only feature unique and different puzzles but you are willing to come up with ways to make the puzzles even more challenging and fun for yourself and for us. I admit that I did wonder how you'd react if one of the flips didn't work out
A moment ago I was wondering for myself if there was such a thing as a double-sided puzzle. And there you go. Amazing. :)
I just found a Gray Malin puzzle with two beach scenes which means a lot of blue! You can tell back from front due to the die cut and one side is glossier so I am going in!
I love your videos. I enjoy how enthusiastic you are about puzzles and your love for them. It makes me happy to see others enjoy their special interest and have a platform to talk about it.
i feel like this is such a fun idea. my grandma really loves puzzles and we always do a new one when we visit. i think this is a fun way to *jazz* up puzzle night.
Galison boxes are my favorite puzzle boxes, hands down. And they're definitely up there with my favorite puzzle brands. There's a puzzle called Naranjas by them, and it was very enjoyable to put together. But I've never done this two-sided puzzle, both because I anticipated the backside-lower-quality thing, and because the ocean and beach design didn't really appeal to me personally.
As a redhead, I'm not much of a beach girl but I do like this puzzle. I have a double sided Monet puzzle that I have had for a long time. It's one of the only puzzles that have survived my many 'I have too many puzzle' purges because it is so unique. I will have to look for these puzzles on Amazon. Also, I have a suggestion for the flipping if you decide to use this method again in the future... binder clips along the edges. I have used binder clips and felt to hold a few puzzles while they are waiting to be glued and I haven't noticed any slippage in the puzzles even with storing the 'puzzle sandwich' sideways. It's like a home-made Bits and Pieces puzzle tote :)
I experimented with binder clips but it didn't seem to make it any more secure than just holding it. But I'm glad to hear it works for storing the puzzles long term!
i dont even like to do puzzles but somehow here i am enjoying this content lol
Going to the beach and watching Karen puzzle - both very therapeutic!!
Never done a double sided puzzle before, but it looks very cool! Awesome video!
Beach
I have never been so stressed watching a puzzle video as I was with this one! I held my breath every time you flipped it! I love both the images but really don't think I'd like to do either as a jigsaw - the water side has too little detail, and the detail in the beach looks so tiny! I have done double sided jigsaws before. The pictures weren't as distinctively different as this one. You could only tell which side you needed by the shine/dull finish.
So It’s the first time I’m ever watching a video of you (love it! I subscribed immediately), but first I thought you said “welcome to Karen PREZEL”, and I was like “YEAAAAA prezel! wait. Ohhh Puzzle hahahah” 🤣 anyway, great video!
That puzzle is so cool! I did a double sided puzzle once that was the same picture on both sides just rotated 90 degrees. I'd totally love to try one like this.
I watched this a few weeks ago and then bizarrely found this exact puzzle, unopened in a charity shop for £4 here in England! How strange is that?? I’ve just finished it, on the beach side and it was a challenge!
That was a fun way to do the puzzle. I would have just kept the easier side up. Now that you're done, you should go to the "Beach"
While watching you flip, I just thought about it might have made it more secure to add clips at each side when you flip to make sure the contact stays the same when you flip.
I've been loving your videos lately and you definetly taught me a lot of tips for my next puzzeling session. 😊 Also I loved the details in the beach side at first I thought it was a painting but as you get closer you see all the details
This is the type of quality content I signed up for
I found a jigsaw puzzle you did that looks exactly like yours in Auburn Maine. I didn’t know if I can do it. It’s at the thrift shop in my neighboring town. I live in Maine. I hope you’ll enjoy it. Have fun!🙂
I really like the format of this one! Puzzle queen !!!
Great exercise. You did really well. I wasn't expecting you to get Jiggy at the end, though. beach anvil.
what a beautiful beach!
This is such a stunning puzzle & I love the way you did it! Flipping it back & forth between the two sides! I would love to go to the beach too !
Beach! I’ve never done a double sided, but I might have to try one now 😁
That's really cool! I would frame it between two pieces of glass instead of just the front one and then you could hang it and flip it whenever you want to. ❤️ Love your channel and LOVE puzzles
This was such a novel idea. I really enjoyed the video. Keep up the amazing work! 🏖
You make me wanna start doing puzzles again =)
Hi Karen, thanks for keeping us entertained!
I was wondering if you've ever tried Heye puzzles. Their images are intriguing and I was considered getting one.
YES!!!! There bright and really fun pictures. The poster that comes with is large maybe too large but nice. I do a lot of puzzles they are by far my favorite. Just finished one yesterday. but no worry I have many more just waiting for me to do.
@@candyhaslam9953 thanks for the insight. I'll definitely get one. 😊
never thought doing puzzle can be so much fun!
I have done the 'Rubik's Magic' double sided puzzle. One side the 3 multi-coloured rings are connected and the other side, they are separate. It was a bit of a 'beach' to do! Xxx
Her little laughs are so cute
No double sided puzzle for me! Enjoyed watching this!
What a wonderful 'beach' puzzle. You have more patience than I. And who knew the water scene would be easier. Thats interesting. May have to put that one on my Amazon wishlist. ⛱
You could do a challange where you have to roll a dice and see what side of puzzle you have to work on! It could be interesting 💖
The flipping was a neat idea. Recently I got made a custom collage puzzle of covers from our favourite books and movies, which I'd gave to my partner as a birthday present. It ended up great.
Something something beach.
OMG i love thisss 😂😂😂😘😘
she really just said 'wheres wallow' 16:44 😂
You are so ADORABLE!! I love your enthusiasm!! Great videos, I love that you do what you love!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 keep it going girl!!
I have never tried one but I've been intrigued by the double sided puzzles by the brand World's Most Difficult Jigsaw Puzzle. It has the same image printed on both sides rotated 90 degrees with respect to each other. I feel like it would drive me nuts but also feel like I need to try one at least once. I will definitely need a trip to the BEACH to relax after that!
Oh the suspense! Loved this one! Thanks for the fun 😊 🧩!
beach - oh, that was fun to watch :)
Interesting!
Most of my puzzles when I was a kid was made upside down. Because my parents didn't buy me harder puzzles, I had to find another way of challenging myself. 😆
The closest I got to a double sided puzzle was one that had a patterns with small black polkadots and another with stripes on the back. I think those two inspired me to do my puzzles upside down, actually.
They were a 2-in one box so they had patterns to differentiate the two, so that you could sort the pieces with just the pattern on the back and then put them together separately.
Its so wild, the water side of the puzzle has so much texture that its difficult to see where the pieces are cut compared to the sand side
Watching your 12h challenge video and now this one, it's making me want to buy Gray Malin's whole puzzle collection 💰💸 those *beach* photos are so beautiful 😍
This was such a cool way to showcase a double sided puzzle!
My cousin mixed all of her puzzles together and i spent hours sorting and building them.
Oh no! That must have taken a while!
It did.
@@A_random_person16 Wow, how many puzzles did she have and how many pieces did the puzzles have? If they look very much different, it wouldn't be too hard.
@@vegskater1741 there where about 7 puzzles but some had 50 some 100 and some 35 pieces there where 3 frozen puzzles that looked kinda different but not really and the other ones looked really different.
I think this would've been fun if you would've done this at a 𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡
But the people would've probably thought that you were crazy, flipping every 20 minutes lol
You are amazing at puzzling 🥰 I have never tried double sided puzzles- not sure how long it will take to finish both. I’d rather take my time : usually 12 hours for 1000 pieces- I can only imagine ... Beach is beautiful 🥰
I did a double sided puzzle many years ago. I don't remember if I liked it. Probably was a walk on the beach, though.
Love these they’re all so hard though 😂 I did the skiing and forest one. I completed the skiing side
what a coincidence since a friend of mine went to the beach today! Fun premise for this puzzle build. Your starting strategy really helped since each side concentrated on a different quadrant. Good job and really cute narrative that you provide. After the fact, I think your flips would have been easier (and not threatened the camera) if you flip on the short side (i.e., front over back instead of side over side)...but maybe not quite as exciting since you had to "navigate" so many obstacles! Fun vid. Seems I'm getting hooked.
Could you maybe someday do a review of bluebird-puzzle? I just found them recently and would love to know your opinion on them☺️
