Am I a jigsaw puzzle hoarder?

Today I'm giving you an updated tour of my puzzle studio and sharing all of the (many) new puzzles I've gotten lately. If you watch until the end, there's also a little update about the SECOND Karen Puzzles Puzzle. It will be out in the US at the beginning of May, so stay tuned until then for my official announcement video about it where I'll share the entire story and I'll be solving it on camera.
In the meantime, the first Karen Puzzles Puzzle is still available on Amazon! Get yours here:

Remember how I ended up with two copies of Sweet Sentiments? Well I'm solving the extra one in an exclusive video on Patreon today to find out if it's missing any pieces. Supporting me on Patreon directly contributes to supporting this growing puzzle collection, and I'm so thankful to everyone who has signed up: patreon.com/karenpuzzles

In that Ohjiya serenity arabic calligraphy, it says, "In this place, the heart has a home"

[@bennydreamly]

I think I can already buy the second puzzle of yours from ravens burger! One of the perks of living up north…

[@galeem713]

Wish I could afford that but I can barely afford to support myself.

[@achild4363]

I love your puzzle studio

[@GreenVenus]

My sister is into puzzles so I started buying cute ones to try. Last night she sat and tried to crochet (my hobby) while I tried to puzzle, and we ultimately agreed that we should stick to our own hobbies for now lol

[@KarenPuzzles]

I'm impressed by anyone who can crochet! I can't get my head around it.

[@NicoleKennedy-yr5yq]

Lol it's cool that you guys at least tried something different than what you normally do. Keep trying! I love crochet too, it's my favorite hobby.

[@NicoleKennedy-yr5yq]

​@@lazyhomebody1356 I learned to crochet by watching KZbin videos, there are some great tutorials here! Trust me, if I can do it ANYONE can do it lmfao. Keep trying and you will master it! It's such a rewarding hobby and you can get super creative with it. So many different stitches and techniques, and it's so relaxing.

[@Chaotic_Pixie]

I do both... I just wish I could do them both, at the same time. I also knit but that's besides the point. I think having hobby dates is great! I often knit or crochet while bestie sits and draws or SiL works on her tiny dolls or my mom stitches. And bravo for trying something new! It's not always easy to break out of your comfort zone. I wouldn't write it off entirely if it is something you do actively want to pursue. As with any artistic endeavor, there is a level of "this is new and I'm frustrated" that has to be worked through, but if its really something you're a keen bean about, you're capable. You're already a problem solver by being a puzzler and that's half the skill set involved in any artistic endeavor.

[@juliatoledo4703]

I like both, but I crochet more, than I do puzzles. I usually do more than a thing at the same time, for an example, I'm crocheting a blanket, a doll and a TBH creature and I'm working on a 1000 piece puzzle, but I've been avoiding it these past days.

[@saraangel6696]

The human body puzzles is a GREAT idea for halloween! Imagine you, dressed as jack the ripper, doing the anatomy puzzles lol

[@KarenPuzzles]

Or Sweeney Todd!

[@neko2412neko]

I need to see that!!!

[@KarenPuzzles]

Update on the black and white Op Art puzzle on Ebay - I kept an eye on it all week and was the only bid. And then someone swooped in in the last 5 seconds and outbid me by one dollar 😤 So I'm still on the hunt for that puzzle 😭

[@melodyspencer3868]

I’d say “collector” not Hoarder 😊

[@KarenPuzzles]

That's what we'll go with 😄

[@jujunorman4695]

Precisely

[@meeprific]

Exactly, John Hodgman (of the Judge John Hodgman podcast) says that the difference between a hoarder and a collector is a display case, lol. So I think your display is sufficient to own the title. 🎉

[@lindaoharris]

Yes collector. Hoarders get rid of nothing but you share with others and sell some. ❤️❤️

[@HaribBinShahbaz]

I have 50 puzzles and she has thousands of puzzles

[@Brocolli_Pizza]

I adore seeing people’s life’s work, you’ve been basically collecting these your whole life. It’s awesome to see them all in a room like this.

[@KarenPuzzles]

I also have another shelf of puzzles at my parent's house. That would be my true life's collection.

[@Brocolli_Pizza]

@@nom3nnescio a lot of these puzzles she has bought herself, like the vintage and rare ones.

[@Chaotic_Pixie]

@@nom3nnescio some companies do send her some of their collection, but not all those modern puzzles were PR, not by a long shot. And all those vintage ones, the ones she's preserving and doing research on and cataloging the history of... that's a labor of love. Belittling someone else's labor in this world because you're jealous... and yes, that's what your comment is... is so rude. Good for her that brands have taken notice of her passion and love of the hobby and its history and want to help support her in that. When a brand sends her puzzles to create content with, that's $$ she can put towards preserving the history of antique puzzles. It's a win, all the way around. And a lot of those indie brands didn't send her those puzzles, she bought them herself.

[@vargsvansify]

@@nom3nnescio is your argument here that if you get something for free, it’s not eligible to be in a collection? In that case, I don’t agree. You could absolutely have a collection that consists of gifts.

[@vargsvansify]

@@nom3nnescio ah, so you’ve added the word “Active” now. Then you agree that it is indeed a collection and now argue that Karen is not actively collecting puzzles since she gets puzzles sent to her. That’s shifting the goal posts a bit. I would still claim that Karen is very active in her collecting, since she does lots of auctions and puzzle swaps. You do come across as a bit jealous that she gets free stuff, but that might just be a coincidence. Is it important to you whether Karen has an active collection or not? Can’t really see what you have to gain here.

[@findango]

As a collector of many other things. I have a deep appreciation for how clean and organized the puzzle studio is. Superb.

[@jjs2351]

My wife and I are addicted to your videos ! Although we are occasional puzzlers (4 or 5 a year) the idea of watching hours of someone putting puzzles together was the furthest from my mind. However, we were hooked. It must be your personality, your positive attitude, and also your very professional, skillful editing. Many thanks, Karen !

[@basvanderwerff2725]

Soon you can start a vintage puzzle museum and have them all organized there!

[@KarenPuzzles]

That's the dream!

[@jakebates5918]

At 1:49 you showed the 5,000 piece Pokemon puzzle me and my partner completed yesterday!!! It took us several months to complete, and I bought it because you inspired us to tackle a giant puzzle. We had so much fun so thank you Karen!!

[@KarenPuzzles]

Great job!

[@jakebates5918]

Also you're organizing skills are immaculate! I'm in awe.

[@mjpuzzles25]

I had a feeling you’d get confused by the Cat Condo box. It was the only box I had that would fit those puzzles! 😂🧩 Loved this video, it’s nice to be organized.

[@KarenPuzzles]

I was so confused when I opened it!

[@PokhrajRoy.]

It’s like the Architectural Digest Office Tour but for Puzzles. Also, own the epithet of ‘Puzzle Hoarder’. Normalise puzzle hoarding.

[@starei]

it makes me so happy for some reason to see all these puzzles together

[@vaughn53]

Your puzzle "hoarding" is my dream problem to have haha. I've already started though thanks to your addictive videos! Thanks Karen for always being puzzling goals

[@Chaotic_Pixie]

So, a lot of booktubers have TBRs... or To Be Read. I think you need a TBP... or To Be Puzzled. You can get some good content out of discussing your TBP including "My patreon members pick my puzzle" or "Randomly drawing a number to decide which Ravensburger puzzle I do next"... I know you love your well-researched content and we love you for all that hard work you do. It's mind-blowing and amazing, but also, you can have "fluffier" content. It's okay. We love it all! I'm also SO HERE for some videos on lower piece count puzzles... especially if you got some more recommendations for quality kids puzzles, especially edutainment ones. I got almost 4 and almost 7yo nieces who are really getting into table top brain activities. Also, there's a distinct difference between someone who collects and honors their collections and someone who just accumulates... someone who treats them with respect and carefully curates what's in their collection and someone who is a hoarder. You demonstrate zero hoarding tendencies and I need you to know that. You routinely re-evaluate your collection and donate/swap/sell what is no longer serving your needs. You don't keep every puzzle ever sent to you and you don't accept every offer of ever puzzle you receive. You're a curator, not a hoarder. You're a preservationist too. We should all strive to be so good about our passions. You're an inspiration, not a cautionary tale.

[@devorahallen4657]

Please do not apologize/feel bad for not doing all the amazing videos you have ideas for! You will always have more ideas than you are able to bring to life, and you know we are all here for whatever you end up showing us. Do what you're feeling inspired to do, not just what you're feeling pressured to do. You will love the process more, and it will show in the final product!

[@LFfire1597]

There’s something wonderful how you come across while showing your collection. It makes me smile. Your a curator of puzzling history.

[@raisethe3]

42,000 pieces?! and 32,000 pieces?! I died. Your collection is astounding! Thanks for the tour!

[@catalina9844]

These types of videos are some of my favorites. Today this prompted me to go through my own puzzle collection and I found 15 to donate to my local library 💛🌼⭐️

[@KarenPuzzles]

Amazing!

[@hotdesertmopars]

I hadn't even thought of donating to a library! I gift to another person or would gift to a thrift store. How to decide?!🤷🏼‍♀️🤔🙃

[@Skufferzz]

Pleeeeeeeaase do the anatomy puzzle soon!! It looks so cool!!! 😁

[@sonjanaugler244]

I love a behind the scenes video of all your puzzles. Can't wait to watch.

[@sonjanaugler244]

So excited for another large puzzle. Those are so fun to watch.

[@Diane4mail]

This was so much fun to watch! It is much easier for me to organize my pizzles. I have two shelves of "To Do" puzzles. Most are gifts, and others are self-purchased. Completed puzzles are ushered out the door the day after I complete them. I take them to my school to be rehomed by another teacher. Admittedly I do have about 8 puzzles I keep, but that is about it.

[@susancampanelli4245]

The organized puzzle person who forever changes the landscape of puzzling. You make this a legit hobby! I’ve always enjoyed a good puzzle and had absolutely no idea that so many other people do too! Thank you for creating this channel and building this community!

[@Playitagaindian]

Is there one particular puzzle you could never part with? I had a childhood puzzle (that was missing 1/4 of the pieces!) but that was my favorite since the 60s. I parted with it in the mid 90s and regretted doing so. I found the exact puzzle on ebay and hubby bought it for me for Christmas ‘22. It had EVERY SINGLE PIECE! Wow. I can’t believe the joy it brings to me. The puzzle shapes, the picture, the box…oh my! I will cherish my special puzzle for the rest of my life. ❤🧩❤

[@KarenPuzzles]

Definitely my Bits and Pieces Christmas Eve puzzle from the 90s. I've done it dozens of times over my life ☺️ I'm happy you were able to find yours again!

[@dirk3314]

i would be soooo interested in a “some of the puzzles i haven’t gotten to” video!! really excited for everything coming later!

[@keleidoscope3564]

This was so exciting to watch. There are so many puzzles I am looking forward to you doing!

[@NeutralGoblin]

I love this behind the scenes content! After watching your videos for awhile I had been wondering where you would store them all and this was super interesting to watch! ^^

[@icebox41247]

Thank you Karen for your puzzle inspiration! You are what my wife and I call a Puzzle Dragon, never a puzzle hoarder!

[@kazzerism]

I just ordered your new puzzle, it looks so great! I can't wait to hear more about it from you :)

[@lukesmithkaz]

It's all so... organized! I love seeing other people delve into their passions and you've given me inspiration to chase my own passions!

[@annieadderall]

I love your puzzle haul and puzzle room videos! Your organization is so nice. I also discover so many new brands through your haul and room videos so please keep doing these!

[@rebeccalarson1511]

It looks so beautiful and well organized, I bet it was a breath of fresh air and wonderfully pleasant to sit in the room. You put in a lot of time and effort, thanks for sharing with us!

[@srrfounder1]

Happy Easter, Karen! 😊🎊🐣 You can never have too many puzzles, as long as you STAY organized, have a great day!!

[@palatina6626]

Happy easter, happy puzzeling, happy organizing. Your video is so much fun.

[@Marlene7388]

Congrats on your new puzzle!! Your puzzle room looks very "Organized" and super cool! Thank you for sharing! Very nice puzzle haul!

[@beckymunro2071]

I've been watching your videos for a couple of years. You've inspired me to get back into puzzling. I've done quite a few latley and I have enjoyed trying different types of puzzles because of you: such as gradient or mystery puzzles, and even a few vintage puzzles.

[@arioctober]

Part of why I love your videos so much is that your room isn't hoarded out with puzzles in the background, it's actually tidy and organized! 😂 As a recovering hoarder myself I'd say you're in the clear. You don't own more than you can handle and everything you collect is out of genuine love and appreciation 🥰

[@Taniawickspuzzles]

Absolutely loved watching how you have organised your puzzles in this wonderful space. Beautiful collection Karen 💗

[@candidulce0714]

The anatomy one looks intriguing! Can't wait for that video.

[@patmurkland4161]

First, congratulations on the new Karen puzzle puzzle! How exciting! Thanks also for such an inspiring tour. I hope it’s all insured, you really have curated your own museum! I look forward to your videos about all these puzzles you’d mentioned! Secondly I’m famously not “organized,” so forgive me for making a couple suggestions here. 1. You’re smart to shield those vintage puzzles from the light and to protect their weight on each other. Best would be to use a form of acid-free support between your vintage puzzles instead of regular cardboard. 2. Please think of ways to protect your openly shelved puzzles and your puzzle stacks from earthquakes. Having personally seen the damage from different Southern California earthquakes, quakes do tend to send shelves crashing to the floor or send everything flying from shelves. We all want your amazing collection to continue bringing joy to everyone! Thanks again for sharing your joy with all of us.

[@ghislaine8146]

I love someone who is organized as you are. We have that in common. And the love of puzzles, of course. Thanks for the video

[@craftwytchy]

I love seeing all your puzzles, especially the vintage ones!

[@Name-js5uq]

I love how you said you have puzzles coming in and out, mostly in. That was so funny cause I was thinking the exact same thing . Nice to see everything so organized.

[@patavalttia]

So satisfying to see you put the puzzles on the shelves, like putting pieces together in a jigsaw puzzle 😊 *Organized*

[@rosa733]

I am so looking forward to the following year. All these puzzles and plans I shall have to organize my time well.

[@lilianes.machado9256]

Loved to see your collection! Congrats! Your happiness with puzzles express exactly what I feel with mine 😂😂😂! I had a big collection, but needed to save only those I like most... so it is still big, but now it can be organized with only those I want to assemble again in future. Love your videos. Best wishes from Brazil 😘

[@Susieshoosie]

I'm so excited for your second puzzle, I couldn't afford nor have the space for the first one so I was really hoping you would come out with a smaller one! I keep all my puzzles organized on a shelf behind my desk so its part of my background

[@AEvans36977]

Normally after I've worked a puzzle maybe twice, I'm usually over it, then it's off to donation. I don't have that kind of space so a puzzle would really have to have very special meaning for me to hold on to it. The older I get, the less I want to have to deal with. But, I must say, you've done an excellent job keeping your collection organized. You won't run out of video content any time soon😀

[@kajajordahl4962]

don't worry karen, you're not a hoarder but a collector!!

[@realrebelli0n]

A very nice and bright room to work in, congrats! Love your videos btw!

[@joanne231]

Beautiful collection! I think everything looks beautifully organized. That is important. Great job! ❤😃

[@aliceogorodny2914]

My puzzles are currently DIS- organized but I hope to take some tips from your collection's neatness. I'm getting better at giving away/sharing those I won't build again. I love seeing your anticipation of the next build. I so wanted that last Lazel puzzle but couldn't do that to my charge card. Happy puzzling. Happy Easter!

[@KlingonPrincess]

Great job getting organized! The vintage collection is awesome! The Puzzle Michele Wilson ones are new to me and are gorgeous!

[@Natalieplee]

Soooo organised!! Love your channel x

[@AuntGrace]

New puzzler here (3 years) but I got "organized" by keeping only a few after solving them (or finding out I didn't like quality and didn't do). I learned a lot by watching your videos and it helped me choose better quality puzzles. I have some fun ones to do and check 2nd hand stores for unique or special ones when I am out.

[@megan1kween353]

i love how you've organised your puzzle room! haha! i need more shelving to house all of my puzzles hehe

[@yarnmonster]

I love seeing all your vintage springboks stacked up. I’m always so tempted by the vtg mini springboks when I’m on eBay. the images are so cute-esp the muppet designs!

[@bennydreamly]

You’re never going to run out of content ideas! You have a practically endless supply of puzzles, and a seemingly endless list too!

[@D...M...A...]

Thank you , Miss Puzzles , for your diligence and charm... You are the consummate professional / lunatic ...

[@barneysarmy1939]

What a great collection! I'm a huge advocate for constantly cleaning out my home and getting rid of things not used etc but my puzzle collection is the only thing that doesn't get touched and can take up as much space as it wishes!

[@BeingBetter]

I'm the same.

[@lizhart81]

That Carnovsky puzzle on your to-do shelf reminded me of when I first started to watch your channel - it must have been one of the earlier videos I watched. I thought the idea behind those puzzles was so cool and serendipitously, I later found all three puzzles on sale as an ALDI special buy, bought them, and had a fantastic time doing them. I "organise" my puzzles by cramming as many as I can onto the remaining shelves of my wardrobe that are not currently being used for clothes. I have mainly Ravensburger, Pomegranate, and Cloudberries, which annoyingly all come in slightly different shaped and sized boxes. Other than the blue dust, my main Ravensburger gripe is therefore that their 1000 piece boxes are unnecessarily bulky to store - the 2x1000 puzzles they sometimes produce come in the same sized box! By the way, for anyone considering buying those, be aware that they don't come with any way to separate the pieces after you've completed them, which is a new and inventive kind of sadistic torment, in my opinion. I had to cannibalise some of my older Pomegranate puzzles for their resealable bags.

[@pierQRzt180]

The number of puzzles expands faster than the number of weeks in one's life.

[@azlanx]

Can't wait for "Do I have too few puzzles?"

[@elliotelliott901]

Love your show! PuzzlePOWER! 🌞❤️🙏

[@madisonjones1093]

I have the same Ravensburger puzzle of puzzle pieces! I had so much fun putting it together!

[@vcka]

The List™ just makes me more obsessed. I love your collection.

[@fifaxanam517]

aw really appreciate your integrity with the amount of sponsorship you get!! hope you win at the championships!!

[@ArtJourneyUK]

Love seeing an *organised* collection

[@TheAlejandroGlz]

OMG can’t wait for the Anatomy Puzzles Video 😍😍😍😍 greetings from Mexico 🇲🇽🥰

[@danieljckson]

I don't even do puzzles... Why do I watch your videos? There's something oddly satisfying about how into puzzles you are. Even though I don't do puzzles I get to experience your enthusiasm vicariously. :p

[@danieljckson]

@KarenKavett....... ya I bet…

[@variantvirtue]

Despite all the other interesting and fun puzzles I'd love to see from this video, I think giving a fan their puzzle back should be a priority over what I want to see haha

[@Laura.jigsaw_journey]

Nice collection Karen. Those shelves are a dream ❤️😊👍🏼

[@arwengrune]

Karen: "Whatever would be in the big box?" Everybody: "PUZZLES!" 😂

[@KarenPuzzles]

but is it one big puzzle or lots of little puzzles??

[@ambierona]

Thanks for showing us all your puzzles! I've done the anatomy one and that was fun! I did them all separately, but it seems like something that you would mix all together to do all at once. Also, congratulations on your second puzzle!! It looks really neat and I really wanna get it! I haven't gotten your 3000 piece one since it's too big but I'll definitely get this one! I don't really keep my puzzles that organized. I have a few stacks of ones I haven't done, and a stack of ones that I want to keep, and then stacks of ones I've done and will be giving away (for the most part, I give away my puzzles when I'm done with them). Everything's just kept on the floor - I should get some shelving in that room 😅

[@devilinsideanangel]

Organized ! Ahhh omg I need to get your puzzle. We loveee ravenburger

[@srrfounder1]

My family sent me your 2nd puzzle already, and I LOVE it even more than the first!! 😊

[@scarlettbetz9109]

Love your realness about not recording. Life is so funny sometimes.

[@tehyaheyrman3100]

I can't wait to see you tackle the 42000 piece puzzle! That's my dream puzzle 😊

[@diannadarling699]

You are so organized…it did inspire me to put my puzzles on a metro rack behind the tv instead of on the floor all around the tv stand

[@lynette.]

Great to hear there is another puzzle by you comminng out.

[@Saudade_Ana]

You will have to get a bigger house soon Karen! Haha so many amazing puzzles, I feel so envious. Keep having them so well ORGANIZED

[@elizabethdowney3412]

I'm over here doing the same 4 puzzles over and over again 😆

[@LaceCoveredSkies]

I love these types of videos more than your actual puzzle videos!

[@jandaddamio8624]

I have only one cabinet to keep my puzzles organized, so I have to choose wisely when buying puzzles. I usually make mine several times. Excited to see the "little sister" puzzle. I'm currently making the "big sister" and having fun doing it.

[@AlyssaPerrine]

i love how organized you are.

[@SailorYuki]

My puzzles are piled up in a corner on the floor. I miss my old puzzles, especially the vintage ones. But they've been lost over time with moves and such. I just wish I had the money to live in a bigger place, then I'd definitely organise my puzzles according to maker and size. I got your puzzle just last week and I'm waiting for the next one to become available.

[@erinerinbobearin]

I’ve been growing my collection quickly this year, and so far we have a tiny shelf in a cabinet we keep video games and some extra consoles in, and I’m glad I organized that shelf better because the big drawer I kept unfinished puzzles in our built in is finally EMPTY, so time to shop for new ones soon!

[@remiren9832]

I absolutely love seeing how you organised your puzzles! With your awesome humour I half expected that “If I had one” meme. Like, “This is where I’d put Little Boy Blue…IF I HAD ONE!” Lovely _Organized_ video! ❤😊

[@KarenPuzzles]

If I had a Little Boy Blue...I think I would literally take out a safety deposit box at the bank 😂

[@jacquelinerwin6650]

🎉 i keep organized by giving them away. You have an amazing collection . I just have fun and pass them on. ..mostly. 😅

[@kvstar100]

This was so fun to watch

[@sandstormxx]

Karen! I have done the Avacado puzzle and it's super fun and very cute! You should deffo do it (excited to see i have done a puzzle you have).

[@jazzcat320]

You are so ORGANIZED!! ;-) I have my 300 puzzles in clear plastic totes stacked in my basement. I mean to take them all out and organize by brand, but keep my holiday ones together. I have at least two totes of Christmas puzzles!! Keep on puzzlin'!!

[@lindavangooswilligen7577]

I have ORGANIZED my puzzle collection by stuffing them under my sons bed 🤣

[@tinaplaysslots1149]

I don't even have to watch this video to say "yes, you are" lol. Enjoying the videos Karen!

[@erinerinbobearin]

I JUST watched the original redesign of this studio, it’s funny to see how quickly it has changed.

[@Kanoog]

Organizing that room was like a puzzle in itself 😃 I'm a neat freak ever since I was a kid, I've always enjoyed the challenge of organizing so everything is in a convenient spot. It's also fun getting creative like you are, because there are so many methods to organization. My brother however was the opposite haha I think that's why I was more organized because I was learning from our parents getting on his case to clean his room.... I'm probably over sharing here my bad 🤣

[@hudsonsailor54]

Organized. I loved seeing the Galison puzzle by Lisa Congdon. She is one of my favorite artists.

[@wendyeskelin8765]

Wow, you really have them all organized so nice! I would be most interested to see the mini puzzle in the canister, the avocado puzzle, or the 75c puzzle from your friend Kevin on a video.

[@paulabender6615]

I’d say “Curator of …” (you fill in the blank) rather than just collector or hoarder. Your status in the puzzling realm is well above those descriptors. I wish I had the space to have my collection of various craft supplies so artfully stored away. Thanks for the inspiration! 😊💕💕💕
