Cosy, relaxing jigsaw puzzles
Cosy jigsaw puzzles are relaxing, calming pictures to unwind with: a latte at a café, breakfast in bed, a lamp beside a pile of books, candles, mittens round a warm cup, library shelves and cottages in the snow. They are warm-toned and close-up, with soft light that makes them restful to solve. A cosy picture at 100 pieces is a good way to end a day.

Warm light is the guide. These pictures are lit by a lamp, a window or a candle, so sort pieces from bright to shadowed and build outward from the light. Book spines, cups and window frames are strong shapes to start from; blankets and knitwear repeat, so do them last and follow the pattern of the weave.
A puzzle for a quiet hour
Cosy puzzles are about atmosphere: a cup of something warm, a book, candles, a blanket, rain on a window, a cottage kitchen. They are made for slow, unhurried solving, so they work best at a size you can finish without strain — 48 to 200 pieces for most people. Warm interiors have soft, low light, and the darker corners take the most time; start with the brightest object in the picture and let the room grow around it.
