      I'm really happy how everything in my room turned out. Just have to keep it maintained and hope more puzzle sets don't accumulate too quickly 😂

      Thank you! I'm happy I went with this shelf. It holds a lot more and didn't cost as much as a regular bookshelf.

    What a wonderful puzzle room you’ve created! Just be careful of how much sun comes through your window as it can fade the boxes. I keep my puzzles in a closet because I have so many windows that I can’t compete with the sun! 🥴 … I just organize by box size since I don’t have many puzzles. I’m really happy for you - your room is great! Happy puzzling!!!

      Thank you! I'm really happy with how it turned out. I was wondering the same thing about the sun, but I mostly keep my blinds closed so hopefully it'll be ok. I also have a lot of windows throughout my house, so a lot of natural light comes in. I do want to try to sort out my closet at some point so that I can get some more storage space in there too 😎

    This looks great! I organize my puzzles by uh.... cramming them in whatever random shelf will fit another box 😆I definitely need to take inspiration from you and clean them up and get them all together!

    • @thepuzzledmandy
      @thepuzzledmandy  Рік тому

      🤣That’s ok! I was doing the same after I ran out of shelf space, and even started piling them up on the floor. I’m glad to finally have this new shelf!

    My favorite puzzles are Ravensburger and White Mountain and also Springbok so I put them in that order. Really like your new shelf, I just don’t have space for a new book shelf.

    • @thepuzzledmandy
      @thepuzzledmandy  Рік тому

      Thank you! I'm really trying to figure out how I can get another shelf in my room, but that won't really be possible 🤣
      I'll be posting my first Ravensburger review video soon, and I still have to try out my White Mountain and Springbok sets. Looking forward to finally starting them as I've heard lots of good things about them.

    That’s actually inspiring. So far, my “organization” has been to cram all the puzzle boxes on shelves - and then close the closet door. “Out of sight, out of mind” only works until you start avoiding opening that closet door because you can’t bear to look…I’m stressed now, just thinking about it!

    I tend to group by brand, but always a few random groups.
    I joined an online puzzle swap, so have some coming and going ;)

    • @thepuzzledmandy
      @thepuzzledmandy  Рік тому +1

      I also seem to like grouping by brand, then by number of pieces. I sometimes think about joining a puzzle swap group, but I get sad just thinking about giving my puzzles away 😭

    Just went through my closet and found clothes that I haven’t worn in years. I also just reorganized my puzzles. I do it by box size then by theme. I like it when similar sized boxes are together.

    • @thepuzzledmandy
      @thepuzzledmandy  Рік тому +1

      My closets are next on the attack list. I know I have clothes that I left last year that I said I would get rid of if I didn't wear them again lol.
      I also like to have similar box sizes together too!

    Your room looks wonderful now. 👍 Amazing what a bit of re-organisation can do with lifting your mood. That new shelving looks great and really classy. 😃 I don't keep many of the puzzles I do but what I have is organised according to brand. The rest of my bookcases are filled with jigsaws waiting to be done plus three stacks on the piano which will all be passed on to the local community when they are done. I do have rather a lot! 🙄

    • @thepuzzledmandy

      Thank you! It really is amazing how just moving some stuff around can really change the overall look of a room, and how it makes you feel. Now, I sometimes even catch myself just admiring my room from the hall 🤣Three stacks to give away?! I get sad just thinking about giving away just one of mine 🤣

    love your room...looks very organized...... I am jealous....looks like a room for the whole family to enjoy........ Happy to meet the hubby... nice of him to help..... I arrange my puzzles , I have maybe 60 by box size to better fit on the shelves. Unlike you now I have limited space..... I like Ravensburger, Buffalo, love their vivid collection, and Cobble Hill....I think people tend to like what is available in their area.. I am still looking for a brand that has it all... I would be interested to read comments of others as to why they choose puzzling as their hobby verses other things.....

    • @thepuzzledmandy
      @thepuzzledmandy  Рік тому

      I couldn't have done it without him😁 I do love Buffalo, and need to complete another one of their sets soon. I just finished my first Ravensburger, so hoping to get that video out next. I always used to just buy Ceaco or what I'd find at Disney, but I'm happy I've started branching out to other brands. So many great puzzle experiences, I wish I ventured out sooner. So far I find Pintoo brand my best experience (so far) in terms of quality. Their pieces are pretty small so it makes for a challenging experience.
