When it comes to a hobby that allows you to combine real relaxation with a challenge to keep your mind sharp, jigsaw puzzles are the ultimate solution, and they can even help to boost creativity or help you to cherish a favorite memory. Using a blank jigsaw puzzle means that you have complete control over the final image that will be revealed once the pieces are put together. You can create a beautiful landscape, commemorate an amazing memory, share a favorite photo, or celebrate a colorful pattern‒the possibilities are endless!
Creating your own custom images and designs can add a personal touch to the jigsaw experience‒if you are looking for a fun and creative project, why not transform your own one hundred-piece blank jigsaw puzzle into a unique one hundred-piece photo puzzle featuring an image that holds meaning and significance for you?
If you are looking to get started bringing your creative vision to life on a blank jigsaw puzzle, read on to discover our top tips to make the most of this fun, creative project!
Choose the Right Image
Choosing the perfect image for your custom puzzle is almost as fun as putting the puzzle together! We recommend selecting an image that is significant to you, whether that is a favorite vacation photo, an image of a beloved pet, or even a piece of artwork that has always inspired you.
Whether you choose a one hundred-piece tiger puzzle to celebrate your love of nature, or a one hundred-piece world map puzzle as a nod to your love of travel, choosing the right image will ensure that you end up with a final result that you truly enjoy. Make sure that the image has enough detail that putting it together will be a fun challenge once it is transformed into a puzzle.
Prepare the Image
Once you have chosen the perfect image for your design, the next stage is to prepare the photograph to ensure that it works on the final puzzle and looks as good as possible. This might involve cropping, resizing or editing the image using MakeYourPuzzles’ online puzzle maker to fit the dimensions of the puzzle, and making sure that it doesn’t look blurred or stretched.
We recommend enhancing the colors and contrast to make the image really pop, and don't forget to add any text or additional elements that you want to include in your puzzle design! Remember, this is your puzzle, so take the time to create a design that you really love.
Choose Your Number of Pieces
You will also need to decide how many pieces you want for your jigsaw puzzle, as this will impact its complexity and difficulty. The most common options are one hundred, 500, or 1000 pieces. Puzzles with more pieces tend to be more difficult to assemble. Some designs may suit a higher number of pieces‒particularly very detailed or complex designs‒and this can be a great challenge for experienced puzzle fans!
