That is a great collection you have! 👍 I just went and counted mine there and I have 68 in total - some of those also include 2 or 3 puzzles in one box so I’d say it’s closer to 90! I really need to have a clear out of the ones that I’ll never do again - see if I can swap them or just give them to charity. Then with the empty space I can go and buy more puzzles! 😂
Thank you! 🤗 You have a great collection! 🤩 And yes, with a number as high as yours, it is worth swapping the puzzles, or even giving them away to make a space for new ones. I saw with myself, once I went past 50 puzzles, I stopped redoing puzzles at all - so since then, everything that is finished, is swapped, gifted or sold 😊
Great collection. I’m glad to know I’m not alone in my obsession 😆 Many brands I’ve not heard of and would like to check out - but I LOVE Wasgij and the new Blue Kazoo (I got a little Sun”burned out” after doing the Earth and the Moon - but I’m currently doing Jupiter, and I’m loving it.)
Thank you! 🤗 And no, you're definitely not alone!! 😂😂 I tend to look for as many different brands as I can and I also have different availability in Europe as opposed to the US. Well done on completing both puzzles! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 They look difficult! I'm yet to tackle my 'Sun' and I'm honestly a little bit scared of it 😅🙈
The Wasgij and Jan van Haasteren are super popular here in the Netherlands (probably because Jumbo is Dutch). The Mystery ones are by far the easiest of the Wasgij ones! And the Van Haasteren ones are actually quite easy, because you can look everything up on the box. Fun fact: our only Dutch speed puzzling competition is JUST van Haasteren puzzles, and only teams. Which makes them harder because everyone wants to hog the box 😅
I didn't know Jumbo is Dutch! They have great sense for puzzles!! 🤩 I have only done the Destiny one, and it wasn't easy - it was so much fun though!! 😁👌🏻 Oh I image everyone trying to have a look at the box haha must be crazy! 😂😅 They should give you printouts to go with the puzzle! 🤪
I recently did the Wasgij #17 as my first puzzle from that type and it was really fun! The colors are so bright and well defined that it was much easier than what I expected :)
That's great to hear! 😁👌🏻 I just did the Destiny one, and it wasn't easy - still very fun though, so now I'm looking forward even more, to doing number 17! 🤩
I love all of your puzzles Janette! I am looking forward to seeing the HP 3D puzzles and your Lego. I have a collection of HP lego that I had to disassemble when I moved. I still have to reassemble them so maybe when you start, let me know and I’ll do one with you 😊
I have all the planets (so far) from Blue Kazoo + 3 older from space collection. Premium price, which they can justify. Sadly the Freight & Custom Fee are as expensive as the jigsaw puzzles themselves. The piece cut I really enjoy. Looking forward to your feedback & vids. I really like that you sorted it by countries, and the fact you're so strict with what can stay.
You really like a challenge, huh?! 😅 I am honestly the most scared of doing the planets, out of all that they have sent me 😂😅 Good to know about the quality! And I bet the customs are a nightmare! That's why I don't order anything from the US either! 😬 I'm glad you enjoyed the video! 🤗🧩
Oooooooh, so many great puzzles! Love all the Ravensburgers, especially those large count ones. I hope we get to see you do those! I am sure you will love the BlueKazoo puzzles. I've done several and they are fabulous!
Thank you! 🤗 You're definitely gonna get to see me do the 5k Ravensburger one! 😅 That's great to hear about BlueKazoo - I'm looking forward to them! 🤩👌🏻
I think I said already, but Enjoy is such amazing quality. My favourite. You have such a lot of lovely puzzles. If you want to do a video of all the mini ones that would be fun.
What a great collection! I have a few Blue Kazoo puzzles and the boxes look so good on display. So far, I've only done the 250 piece Sun, just to try them out and I loved the quality. I'm working up the nerve to do the 1,000 piece Moon one day. Oh, and I think the answer to "Should I do a video on...(x)?" is almost always "Yes!" 😊
Thank you! 🤗 Oh I bet they look amazing! 🤩 I wish my Sun was 250 pieces!! It looks intimidating as a 1000 piece puzzle! 😅 Great to hear, that you loved the quality! And good luck with the Moon! 😉 Hahahahaahahaha thank you! Will remember that for next time! 😂😂😂
I can't wait to get my "to-do" pile to that count, I have almost 420 puzzles. And no room, I love some of yours. I know the US can get lots of puzzles, but you get some that we cannot get or get easily.
Ok, I feel better. Just counted my collection the other day and it was 91. I kind of want to get it to a nice round 100, but I should probably try to get it down to a nice round 50. Decisions! Decisions! 🙂
OMG that's a lot of puzzles!! 🤯 I would have to clear out all my clothes, to be able to fit that many puzzles in my flat 😅 And yes, I have noticed, that as much as I can't get many brands that are very popular in the US, you also have a similar issue, with some of the European brand - I think Schmidt in particular, if I'm not mistaken. Makes it that much better, when you find a rare gem though! 🤩 I see what you mean with a round 100 - it's a great number, but you have to consider how much space it is taking up, and also if it is putting pressure on you, to puzzle more. I'm on about a hundred now, and I'm trying to bring it down, to about 70-80 I think - then I could always fit all of my puzzles into my 'puzzle designated' closed, and would also have less pressure of the amount of my to-do puzzles 😅
I feel like I’ve been watching your videos for a while now and I’m still surprised when I see how many followers you have because I always think you deserve so many more! Amazing video even if you’re running out of room for puzzles 🤭💗💗
Awww that is so sweet of you! Thank you so much! 🥰 At least I can keep up the pace of my 'subscribers milestone' puzzle assemblies 🤣🤪 Thank you again! 🤗
Janet, I hate to burst your bubble regarding BK's Meridian. I, too, was SUPER excited...until I put it together: -Newly designed box image does not match the size of the finished puzzle. -Box image and poster are much brighter than the actual puzzle that is too dark. -Very crumbly -Paper backing peeled away in several pieces. -Many false fits, which also didn't help but peel the paper backing, so good luck with the Mandala one! I was sooo disappointed that I gave it away. WASGIJ? Safari Surprise, number 31 is the BEST one regarding image change. Not only that... there's a surprise in the puzzle image that I didn't notice once put together until the next day!
Oh no! That's so sad to hear! 😕 I haven't done them yet, so I can't say how it's gonna be, but I'm really hoping that they're not all that bad! I have heard with some brands - such as Trefl and Laurence King - that the quality depends on where they're being produced 🤷🏻♀️ Safari Surprise yeah? I didn't see it in the shops, but I can try to get it online! It does look fun! 🤩👌🏻
I love the fact that yo love Harry Potter so much, but I think I have too many to make a video out of them all! 😬 I will do my best though!! 😉🧩 I listen to HP audiobook every night before sleep! 🤣🙈
I am not sure if they are available to get where you live but Cobble Hill are a great brand from Canada that you could add to your puzzles from around the world!
I can't get Cobble Hill here, but when I did a puzzle exchange countdown puzzle, the girl who was with me, had sent me a puzzle from Cobble Hill! 🤩 So I got to try the quality and I loved it! 😁👌🏻
I have made a video about it, but it's an old one - will probably have to record a new one soon, with all new information I have 😁 But I mostly use sorting trays and foam boards - ua-cam.com/video/nRwjNfWKMM0/v-deo.html 😊
Puzly Puzli is a fairly new Slovenian brand and they make handmade puzzles, that support local artist by turning their art into puzzles. You can check their website here, but it's all in Slovenian: puzly-puzli.store/ Hope this helps! 😁🤞🏻
If you are missing a puzzle piece maybe you could contact the company. Some puzzle brands send replacement pieces. It's a beautiful puzzle so it would be a shame if it was incomplete ❤
I would do that, if I knew it wasn't my fault. I would just feel bad, to make them go through all the troubles and costs, because I wasn't careful enough 😅 If it was the companies fault, then yes, I would definitely contact them! 😂
I Just did the Moana puzzle and it was so much fun I have a lot more of this collection on my to do pile 😃 and I Just came from Müller and bought my First wasgij Puzzle nr 25 I'm really excited but I Hope its Not that hard I normally don't Like Puzzles with that much going on 😅
Oh I bet it was! I love that puzzle! 😍 I normally get puzzles from Müller as well! They have nice variety! 😁👌🏻 I haven't seen number 25 anywhere in the shops in Slovenia, but it looks SO MUCH FUN!!! 🤩 I'm sure you're gonna love it! I know it's a busy puzzle, but nothing compared to Jan Van Haasteren. I solved mine without referring to the picture, which I think would be almost impossible with JVH - or it would drive me insane 😅 And Mystery ones are the easiest out of the lot! Enjoy! 😉
@@janetteandherpuzzles the piece quality and cube aren't brilliant, but certainly not the worst (6/10). I had a few false fits, but I liked the design, and enjoyed doing it.
So many awesome puzzles, so little time to watch them all but I made it. I watched the whole video, just because I love your content. I did the White Mountain puzzle "Movies", you are going to like it, it is fun, fun!, I did the puzzle with my husband and younger son Ethan. I am glad that it is not hard for you to let go of the puzzles from the competition and you can find new "homes" for them. I donate mine to local libraries and back to charity shops. I gift some unopened ones for birthday presents. The Red Dawn puzzle is beautiful and if you want to frame it, you are probably going to have to customed frame it at an arts and crafts local shop. I think you should, if you really really love it. When you brought out the famous 5K puzzle I was like, Janette is going to say, and the title of this puzzle is, Why dad why? 🤣The Blue Kazoo ones are beautiful and I hope you have fun putting them together, very unique images indeed. Thank you for sharing your collection with us
Oh thank you so much!! I know the video was waaaay too long, but I had no choice 😅 Great to hear about White Mountain! I'm looking forward to doing it even more now!! 🤩👌🏻 I gave quite a few puzzles away already, but it then got me thinking, that I'm spending so much money on them, that I might as well try to get something little back, and try to pay for Spain from it, or at least some of the trip 😁 I would frame it, but I have nowhere to put it. And I don't want it to go to waste, so I'd rather give it to someone, then keep it assembled under the bed 😂 Oh yeah, the famous 5k one!! I really should rename it! Or just title the video, when I finish the puzzle - Why dad, why? 😂👌🏻 I love this!! It will be a bit of an internal joke, but whoever has been following me, will know what's all about! 🤣
Hope you enjoy my puzzle collection, entering the 2024, and let me know, if you have any of the puzzles that I have 🤗🧩
That is a great collection you have! 👍

Puzzles should bring you joy; so no need to explain a puzzle away !!!
Thank you so much for saying that! 🤩 Sometimes I feel like a failure, for giving up on a puzzle 😅
I loved the Peter Pan one so much I hugged the box when I completed it 😂😂
Hahahah I love this!! 😂👌🏻
2:05 Yeah! Why not?
Noted! 😁
Great collection. I’m glad to know I’m not alone in my obsession 😆 Many brands I’ve not heard of and would like to check out - but I LOVE Wasgij and the new Blue Kazoo (I got a little Sun”burned out” after doing the Earth and the Moon - but I’m currently doing Jupiter, and I’m loving it.)
Thank you! 🤗 And no, you're definitely not alone!! 😂😂 I tend to look for as many different brands as I can and I also have different availability in Europe as opposed to the US. Well done on completing both puzzles! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 They look difficult! I'm yet to tackle my 'Sun' and I'm honestly a little bit scared of it 😅🙈

You have a beautiful collection of puzzles I love the stories you have with each one too 🧩❤️
Thank you! 🤗 And thank you for helping me build my collection! 🥰
Thank you for sharing! So many great puzzles. I just completed the 9000 piece Disney Collection and it was so much fun! ❤️🧩
Thank you! 🤗 And that's so god to hear!! I'm really looking forward to doing it myself! 🤩🧩
I love all of your puzzles Janette! I am looking forward to seeing the HP 3D puzzles and your Lego. I have a collection of HP lego that I had to disassemble when I moved. I still have to reassemble them so maybe when you start, let me know and I’ll do one with you 😊
Thank you Vicky!! 🤗 Oh wow! So they can be disassembled? 😁👌🏻 I will let you know! We can do a mini HP collaboration 🤩
Vicky, I have also told J. that I purchased a circular one to give it one more try, so she won't lose hope 🤪

I heard that yes! I'm really looking forward to doing mine! 🤩🙌🏻 Thank you so much! 🤗 And noted, about the mini collection! 😁👌🏻
Oh man, don’t you hate how your work gets in the way of your puzzling time?? I can’t wait to see you assemble these!
I'm watching this on lunch at work and I can't wait to get home and puzzle 😛
Hahaha yeah, I feel ya!! 😂 I wish I could only puzzle, and never have to go to work again! 😅🙈
What a great collection! I just finished my first Schmidt puzzle. I bought it based on your recommendation and I absolutely love the brand!!
Thank you! 🤗 Oh wow, that's great! I am super happy that you enjoyed it! 🤩 It is one of my favourite brands!

I just finished Vintage London from Clementoni. It took me 8 days, it was really tricky.
Ok, I can totally understand that! It's all mostly one colour, so yeah... Doesn't look the easiest! 😅😬
I'd love to see the Pisces - EG International puzzle completed. it looks so interesting!
Ok noted!! 😉 It's a good puzzle, but it does scares me haha 😂 But I can do it for you, absolutely! 🤗
These series is beautiful, I collect them but they are quit rare. If you ever want to sell or swap let me know!
