![]() The most important part of starting a jigsaw puzzle is having time and space. Never start a puzzle with the intent of finishing in one day, unless it's painfully easy or you have someone to help you. Chances are you will end up frustarted and disappointed because the puzzle won't be finished. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

![]() The first step for any puzzle is to build the puzzle frame border. These pieces always have one side that has a straight-edge (unless it's a circular puzzle) and they are always visually different from other pieces. They are much easier to assemble compared to other pieces. In layman's terms, it's the easiest place to start. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

![]() One of the best ways to start the interior of a puzzle is to take pieces that have the same color or text and to build small sections. In the Wizard Of Oz puzzle, I chose to build the scarecrow's heart-clock, the magic wand, the witch's broom, and the ruby slippers first. I then positioned the sections inside the border to the approximate position based on the picture from the box cover. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

![]() Puzzles always take longer than you expect. Never try to complete a 500-pc puzzle in one day because it may be next to impossible. If you need the dining room table, you may want to consider a pizza night, take-out food or using the kitchen for a change. This is a hobby that can't be rushed. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

![]() Many people like to frame completed puzzles. There are many ways to do this, but the best way to frame a puzzle is to have it done professionally, or at one of those do-it-yourself framing stores. Remember.. this is a Springbok puzzle and when completed, will look like a work of art !! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
