Design Focused Jigsaw Puzzle Brand That Gives Back
We have all found ourselves with lots of time to fill our days with which means that formerly puzzle-averse people are discovering the hours-killing appeal of the best jigsaw puzzles! I would say it’s definitely the year of the puzzle and I must admit there is a particular type of meditative quality to doing a puzzle. And over at Piecework ..well they know how to make a pretty “instagrammable” puzzle! They’re modern, oh-so stylish, and the pretty boxes make the perfect coffee table accessory in my super modern design focused home! And look great on the shelves of my guest bedroom too which I always think is such a nice touch for guests! (ohhh..I miss having visitors stay with me) So our weekdays and weekends (is there a difference in those anymore?) are spent watching a new Netflix series and matching up all the edge pieces and then working our way in from there!
MEET PIECEWORK: A Curated Line of Jigsaw Puzzles Designed to Make Your Heart Sing
Our Story:
For the Love of Puzzles
We started Piecework after discovering the joy and satisfaction that come from working on a puzzle. Not only do jigsaws have the power to bring people together, they’re entirely gratifying to complete on their own. And we believe that they deserve as much consideration as all of the other objects in our lives. We set out to make puzzles that are just as enjoyable to look at as they are to compose.
Savor the Moment
The name Piecework is a nod to the importance of the process — it’s about fitting something together by hand, working it through, piece by piece — instead of the outcome. Whether working alone or at a gathering of friends, we see puzzles as a means to slow down, connect, and live in the present.
Our Founders
We discovered our love of puzzles by accident. Burned out from work and seeking an antidote to the “always on” nature of today’s world, we booked a rental cabin for a quick escape. But, when we arrived, we found ourselves rained in for the entire long weekend. With no phone service and nothing to do, we turned to a closet of old jigsaw puzzles only to find they offered the rest and relaxation we had been looking for in the first place. A few years — and many shared puzzles — later, Piecework was born. We hope you’ll join us and see just how much pleasure can be found in a good puzzle!
If my life were a puzzle it would most definitely be Rise & Shine, Piecework’s newest puzzle! Sparkly strawberries. Bedazzled bagels. Rhinestoned olives. Tiny, tiny daisies. This is truly the breakfast of champions and the puzzle after my very own heart! ( I am a bagel girl through and through) It’s 1,000 pieces which a nice size for me! I feel like it’s that nice intermediate puzzler level! LOL!
The completed puzzle is 19.25 x 26.6 inches. And I will keep updating you on my progress over on stories!!! I love this puzzle because it’s thick stock and high-quality art paper. It’s designed and made in the USA and the board is 100% recycled paper!
And, through May 15th, 10% of all profits from this glittering smorgasbord will go to Feeding America. I really love this initiative.
Thankful to Jena and Rachel for this permission to pause! Puzzling has added a really fun date night for Lin and I. I remember loving puzzles that my grandparents and I would work on when I was young and somehow I just got too busy to even think about it but of course through this quarantine….it’s just been the perfect thing to pass the time. I would love to keep collecting them and completing them even when life turns back to a new normal.
Check out Piecework Puzzles right away! My next puzzle from them will surely be this Tutti Frutti one!
