Tell me you don't have a cat without telling me you don't have a cat.
What did you tape together to make that puzzle fit the size of your table
I really do wanna say that I think your younger self was sweet and earnest and excited and that's? Just a younger you? I didn't think she was ~cringe~ at all. Made me smile actually.
I think we all think that our past self are cringe
Lets accept the fact that most of our younger selves were cringe and admitting that is not an insult
Yeah cringe isn't bad! ty for the addon@@RoxelanaLisowska
I love it when you dig through the puzzle pieces like Scrooge McDuck through his coins :D It's not just about doing the puzzle, it's about *feeling* it!
Someday I'll do a puzzle big enough to do a cannonball into them 😅
Fellow Capricorn here. Is our sign conducive to puzzling?
Karen: "I am a capricorn"
Me, knowing absolutely nothing about astrology: "Yeah, that makes sense"
You can know what your zodiac sign is and not follow astrology.
@@bglad5924 That is not what they meant lol
@@evooevoo6062 oh so sorry
I knew you were. I heard you say you were our birthday once and figured it out. I am a Virgo.
Whatever she has she definitely has the crazy eyes...super creepy
Aaw baby Karen! I love when we get a peek of the privated videos haha. With the old school CZcams layout as well 😂
I have soooo many old hours of footage no one will ever see again 😂
I still miss being able to give out 5 stars!
Oh dear, baby Karen is the most adorable thing I’ve EVER SEEN!!!!
oh my LORD its a miracle you even managed to power through your first solve of this puzzle without any initial sorting of colors and textures 😭 like... how?? 😭
I think I eventually did some sorting. I'll have to check the progress photos in the next video 😅
I'm so excited to be doing another giant puzzle again! Let me know if you have any questions you want me to answer in the next video!
Hi Karen, do you hear music when you all that sorting? What thoughts are running through your head when sorting? It can be quite tedious😊....
Gemini here 😅
Not a question but when you left the puzzle after working on it for a day not covered at all I was thinking: ah that would be a good reason not to have a cat for Karen! Having a cat 'helping' is way worse than your box sliding of the board! 🤣🤣
@@RonnaSha6 I listen to a lot of podcasts!
How did you start to learn how to sort your puzzles? Or do you still struggle with it
@@lauratrompe7016 or a parrot they can be little thieves as well 😅🦜
I am just amazed that Karen is A) 33 years old - whatttt B) has NOT aged a day in the past 15 years😆new immortal discovered!
If the time stamp was correct, she isn't 33 yet. Not until December
Most people don't look old at 33 years old... That's why you have people our age (yes I'm 33 too) playing 16-year-olds in movies.
She deff don't look 18 lol. Weird comment btw.
@@flspacebearain’t weird to me 🥱
Karen: hmm I bought like brand new 8 9000+ puzzles this year, wonder which one I should do.
Also Karen: I KNOW, THE PUZZLE I'VE ALREADY DONE! 😂😂😂
Yesssss
The mini heart attack I had when the star pierces slid off the board 😅
Imagine how I felt when it happened right in front of me 😰
Right?
What would it matter? They were all one category. The thing that stresses me out is seeing Karen put two categories in the same box.
@@icturner23 because the entire table could have collapsed with the weight and then everything could have mixed again...
@@vaughn53That wouldn't ever happen
Dumping all pieces over the table is how it was meant to be done 😂
That gave me anxiety. I'd be so stressed about losing a piece. Safe to say I will not be doing that when I do this puzzle lol
@@raggsrule ME TOO
Dear Miss Puzzles. Your quirks and mannerisms make my heart smile and bring me joy. You are so fun!
I admire you for taking on this puzzle... not just once in your life.. but at least twice. I guess that is why I watch your channel. I will never be doing puzzles this big... so I get to enjoy the process through you. My max is 2000. My table, house and bank account don't allow for more. So thank you for giving us the chance to enjoy your work! By the way... I'm an Aries.
Am I the only one considering saving all these episodes, so that I can binge them all at once like some kind of Netflix show? I’m so excited for another giant puzzle! (Sagittarius)
I couldn't wait that long 😮
@@zgoemans2213 Me neither, but I did remember the giant puzzle playlist, so I binged the Minions puzzle after watching this one😂🤩
Sagittarius as well 😊
@@radka9516 me too
I’m also a Sagittarius!
This might be a small detail but I really appreciate how respectful you were at the end with the store clerk! Blurring their face and keeping a reasonable distance with the camera is just good etiquette that everyone should follow when filming in public. So many creators will just shove their camera in an employee's face without thinking so whether on purpose or by accident, as a customer service worker, thank you!!
I finished my own 9000 piece Astrology puzzle during pandemic. Without your inspiration, I could not have done it. Thank you.
Omg those CZcams clips were a blast from the past. I remember that CZcams! 😂 My spouse was obsessed with Wheezy Waiter in that era. I'm a cancer, but I have like zero cancer traits. Sometimes I ask my astrology friends how that works out and it's always interesting to hear their sincere responses to it. I'm excited to see more giant puzzle videos!!
I feel like those clips only make sense in the context of the old CZcams layout 😂
It's so great to see all the puzzle lovers out there! Every time I tell people about my puzzle addiction they look at me like I'm crazy. I too will sit and work on a puzzle for 10-14 hours at a time on my days off. 😅 Happy puzzling all!
SCORPIO
I love watching you tackle large puzzles, it's so fun to watch! It's really satisfying seeing how much your technique has evolved over the years. I'd love to do a giant puzzle one day but I hate sorting so much, and I know it's the key to a more efficient and enjoyable solving process. I can just barely handle sorting 2000 pieces though, lol.
Who's here after knowing she had to tip all the pieces out the box twice for the shots? 😂
Much more than twice! I wanted options because there's no way I was undoing all the sorting to redo that shot 😂
I never tought i'd be watching jigsaw videos, but yours are so relaxing! The energy and editing makes these so good! Thanks! ✨
Aww, the old footage was so cute! And the 5 stars under youtube videos bring back so many memories. Thankyou Karen
I'm a Libra, the sign that always looks the worst on puzzles because it's apparently really hard to make an inanimate object look aesthetically pleasing. really liking how it looks on this one though! the aesthetic of this puzzle is amazing
As a cancer, I feel you.
I love that you mentioned the stretching part! My whole body gets stiff from puzzling, it's a real struggle and I have yet to find an ergonomic way to enjoy this hobby
It's mostly just the sorting, since you're in the same position for so long at a time!
I think it's the "hunch" that gets ya. A good chair and table height probably helps a bunch. I have a posture correcting strap thing for my shoulders. I wonder if wearing that during intense sorting would help.
I have a standing table where I puzzle. I stand the whole time. This reduces the time that I can work on the puzzle in one session but my back feels much better at the end of the day.
The only thing I'm eorried about second-hand large puzzles is whether or not all the pieces are really there 😅
Well, we're going to find out 😂
That's the risk you always go with buying a second- hand one. I bought a second- hand crime story puzzle a couple of weeks ago. Well the puzzle was complete, that's to say. But the crime story was missing. Just got the solution. Perhaps next time i'm luckier. 😉
Out of 20-30 I’ve only had 2 missing pieces! Good luck!!
It was such a moment to see you find your puzzle on the shelf. Leos love this stuff.
Scorpio here! I love how geeked the B&N employee was for you. Just genuine joy.
your enthusiasm is contagious!!!!! I just so love your channel, no matter what the content is on a particular day, but it so brightens my day when you are “over the top”!!!!!!!
As requested, i am a Cancer (a spot-on one, too - i love my home, my kitchen, my savings account, showering my loved ones with attention - you get the idea).
I’m a Gemini and also a puzzle enthusiast. I really would love to own this puzzle. I’m hoping I can find a copy 😂
You finding your puzzle in Barnes and Noble reminds me of when my sister searched for the book Guilded to see her name in the acknowledgment section. Such a wonderful sight
@@lazyhomebody1356 that’s awesome! My sister runs a podcast called The Prince Kai Fanpod about Marissa Meyer books. And the author has been on a few episodes and included her in the acknowledgments of the newest novel! I’m so happy for her
My entire soul left my body when she almost knocked that box of puzzle pieces off the table! 😅😅 btw I’m so excited for these videos! ❤️
girl, wdym, those old videos were gold, you're a natural 😭😭
I disagree but thank you 😂
I love that you do a good background or explanation of things. You dont just talk to talk for ages but you also dont leave a ton of unanswered questions. Great balance and keeps me wanting to watch.
Aquarius here, love the tenacity, and that you are redoing a past puzzle. I am excited for you!
As a Sagittarius, I am getting a lot of pleasure out of watching you do this puzzle, because I doubt that I would ever attempt a puzzle this size. I was very impressed by your sorting this time and you proved that you have become an expert puzzler when you can look back and see how your method changed from the first time. Loving it!
I am so so excited for this series! I helped a friend solve this exact puzzle! I only did a few hundred pueces, but it helped keep them going. What a beautiful puzzle it is!
Really excited to have found your channel and to see you do this puzzle. I had a puzzle phase that for various reasons (largely being very picky about images and having a highly limited budget) ended a while back but during this phase I remember staring at this puzzle online and wanting desperately just to try my hand at something so large. I still do but it'll be a while before I'm living somewhere with the space for a puzzling project like that, so I'm eager to watch you complete one of my dream puzzles!
Love watching your progress! From young channel to current, from piles of pieces to solved pictures, I just love it and you make it so fun to watch! Keep up the good work! ✨
Yeeeees this is the video I've been waiting for!! Something about watching a giant puzzle video is so calming and lovely, I've rewatched your other giant puzzle videos... a lot. I'd say about once a season.
The box nearly going off the table was a real jump scare. I gasped!
I bought this puzzle because of you. I loved your first put together and really wanted to do it myself. Thanks for being awesome and inspiring others to try harder puzzles. I could never had imagined I would do a 9000+ piece puzzle
Thank you! We LOVE seeing those fun old clips🎉🎉🎉🎉
THAT FOOTAGE WAS SO CUTE!!!! and im a capricorn too~
Hi Karen, just wanted to say that your videos and energy make me so happy! I love doing puzzles, but unfortunately I can't do them anymore because of terrible headaches I get from it. But watching your videos is the next best thing. So thanks! ♥️
Congratulations for having your own personal puzzle!! So cool!
Oh wow I remember when you took this apart. I've been waiting ever since for the redo!
Started watching your videos and it made me want to do puzzles again so wanna say thank you for showing me the fun for doing puzzles again ❤❤ also that is so amazing that you have got your own puzzle I'm going to try and find your puzzle ❤❤ great video as always ❤❤
it is sooooo cool to see you succeed in what you love! I follow you since your very beginnings, and seeing you finding your own puzzle box in a store just makes me feel so happy for you! it's a sort of "mission accomplished" feeling you know. congratulations! you are one of the greatest in what you do - honestly, my favorite one! now, on to more cool puzzles with your face on the box to sell around the planet! (I'm from Brazil bth, wish your puzzle was on sale around here so I could go buy one and take a picture to show you that you have fans in South America)
You've come a long way since then as a CZcamsr and a puzzler. Thanks for sharing your passion.😊
That old footage was adorable! I don't believe in astrology either, but I do like that I'm an Aquarius 😂 I think astrology-related things make for a nice puzzle, I've done the 1000-piece Schmidt one and I really enjoyed it. Looking forward to the next video to see you work more on this one!
I'm rewatching this series of videos. But want to say how amazing that Karen looks as young as she did 15 years ago!
I have now come full cycle with you, this Astrology puzzle was the first of your vlogs I ever watched in 2019 when you reconnected it. I’ve been hooked ever since. ❤
16 puzzle boxes years ago vs. 16 piles on this one. Fun to watch!!
omg I didn't even notice!
*love... sorry
@@luisaruiz5030 love to watch? Fun to love? Where is the love? 😅
@@vaughn53 🤣 love counting things
Those first few pieces after HOURS AND HOURS of sorting must have felt soooooo good
The old footage was really cute! Adorable. Greetings from Aquarius.
Amazing video! I loved the way that you documented your progress and it has inspired me to take up puzzle making myself. Thank for you everything, Karen. Subscribed and bell turned on.
I’m a Pisces. The biggest puzzle I’ve done is the 1000 piece SPAM jigsaw puzzle by Aquarius. It was a nightmare. It was me, my mom, my dad, my mom’s brother my uncle, and I think his wife my aunt possibly? We started it and since he lives on the other side of the US then us they left and over the course of like 3 years we ended up finally finishing it after we had started the puzzle then lost the final puzzle piece then found it but then had to wait a long time after we had placed stuff of top of the board that we were using. The board was more of a case that when you open it up, it opens up like a book and keeps the puzzle from moving a lot but had another puzzle on it that would make a massive mess if you just opened it up and we were too lazy to move it for a year and a half before moving it. Unfortunately the missing piece had been in the sunlight for so long it was no longer that same color as the rest of the pieces around it so technically we finished but it doesn’t look like we did. 😅
As a person who has watched your videos faithfully since 2008, those clips gave me great joy. I remember you talking about the puzzle back then! When I saw that you were going to do it again, I wondered if you were going to talk about that, but I never dreamed you'd show clips. Thank you for doing it! It really did make me happy, and your videos still give me joy. I wouldn't be here if they didn't. So thanks most of all for (can you believe it?!) 15 years of fun!
Old school! I really appreciate you sticking with me for so long ❤️
I just bought my own copy of this puzzle. Thanks, Karen, for reigniting my love of puzzles. Cannot wait to get started on it!
I just finished your 1000 piece Gradient Cascade puzzle and have your 3,000 piece puzzle waiting for me, but I am so intimidated by it! And then, I watch your progress of a 9,000 piece puzzle - good heavens! I am in awe of your puzzling skills and your video skills. The videos are so, so creative and a joy to watch - thank you, Karen! Finally, i am guessing you’ll finish the puzzle in 42 hours, 42 minutes.
The sorting 😱. Sorting is by far the worst part about puzzling but the better the sort, the smoother the solve. I cant wait to see the rest of this one. Also I'm a Taurus ♉️
Proud Scorpio here and definitely have a sting in my tail but it takes a LOT to get me angry so people rarely see it. I'm glad you actually sorted the pieces first. I can't imagine anyone doing a puzzle this big (or bigger) and not sorting the pieces.
Im so happy for you! I remember watching some of your old videos and to see you have so much fun and success is so cool
I just recently found this channel and am hooked. I haven't touched a jigsaw puzzle in years, but ordered one and loved it so much and I've now purchased 3 more (including both of the Karen Puzzle puzzles). As an Aries I wanted to jump straight to a giant puzzle but I've stopped myself and have started at 500. Looking forward to doing this one vicariously!
Oh my god little baby Karen is SO CUTE
Ps my zodiac sign is Taurus and you worked on the puzzle on my birthday! It was the shortest bar 😂
how wonderful it is to have footage of yourself from that time you can look back on!
So incredibly exciting to have your own puzzle! I love puzzles too and am happy to watch your puzzling adventures!
Inspired by Karen's love for puzzling, I completed my first (!) puzzle last December, it was Ravensburger's The Map of the Universe - and while it had only 1500 pieces, it's design is kind of similar with this Astrology one with the circles and... the space theme :D In pictures The Map of the Universe looks all black but when you look at the pieces close enough, there's so many little details, it's such a cool puzzle! Anyway, I got a bit too excited with my newfound love for puzzling and asked for this sailboat puzzle as a christmas gift from my parents. However, that sailboat puzzle is almost all blue with lots of sky and sea pieces with no details, and... now, almost half a year later, I'm still working on it. At least on some days :D I'm an Aries, so some might say my sign's excitableness got the best of me...
Yay for foetus Karen ❤
I love the old videos, your exiciment for puzzles back them , is how I am now. It is because of you I found the exciment to do puzzles, and I went looking though my house just to build 1. Now I have my own mini colletion and love watching puzzle videos ahaha.
I must say - content like this is great. Just a lady doing a puzzle - no clickbait no nothing. Keep up the great work!
18 year old Karen was adorable! ❤
I've been waiting for this one! Such a cool puzzle. Sagittarius here by the way. December birthdays are the best. Hope you enjoy the rest of the puzzle!
My grandma's birthday was December 26. We went out of the way to make it special for her as most of her life she had combo "Christmas/birthday" presents. Hope that never happened to you! 😊
@@KlingonPrincess My birthday is on the 3rd. People are already in Christmas mood but it's far enough that it can be its own event!
Omg I love the old times video. You were adorable. 😊thank you for sharing little Karen with us.
The trip down your memory lane was a lot of fun, you were as excited about puzzles as you are now. And how cool was that to be able to go shopping for your own puzzle.
Good luck on doing the Astrology Puzzle again.
This was so fun to watch! I can’t wait to see the other parts ❤️ I’m a Sagittarius ♐️ by the way
I'm a Libra, and you have
DEFINITELY gotten faster,
buying YOUR own puzzle
was epic, congrats! 👏🎊
I just got to my internship and settled and immediately started Gradient Cascade. Loving it so much so far.
I’m so glad you’re redoing this one!
As someone who has brought my own products to market, I'd be interested in a more detailed video of how your collaboration with Ravensburger came to fruition, the design process (I did see some of your coverage of that), and how does the financial side work out? I think a whole video describing the process from inception to completion would be very interesting to those of us that found your channel through an anvil video. . . hahaha.😊
Fellow capricorn and birthday-twin here! ♥
I'm so excited to see you work on this puzzle again! Seeing those unorganized piles of boxes full of puzzle pieces from back then gave me anxiety, looking for specific pieces must have been so frustrating and time-consuming - but I guess young-Karen found it extra challenging :D Was it your very first puzzle of that scale?
Yes, definitely the biggest I had done at the time.
Great start to this first video in the series! I'm an Aries - I don't really put that much thought into astrology myself, but any artwork around it is always pleasing! Congrats again on having your puzzle at Barnes & Noble!
Hell yes! This is improving my day so much!
I can’t wait to watch🎉🎉🎉
This should have been at least an hour long!!
There's bonus footage on Patreon if you want more 😊
These clips made me nostalgic for the old youtube. It was a fun time! Good luck with this puzzle!
Hey Karen. I am a Leo and a jigsaw puzzle enthusiast as well. I love watching your channel. Your videos are both entertaining and inspirational; keep up the great work.
I'm a virgo and very pleased that it's a seperate word in English. In German, there is only the word "Jungfrau" which means both virgo and virgin... I always dread the zodiac sign question in conversations.
In italian also... that creates the weirdest jokes
It’s not that much better in English. I’m also a Virgo and everyone still makes the same jokes.
This is by far and away the happiest and most cheerful YT channel I subscribe to. Carry on puzzling, Karen 😊
I have this puzzle waiting for time and space - can’t wait!!
my grandmother loved puzzles, but I think she topped out at like 12-1500 piece ones. Still, she could do a 500 piece puzzle so fast it would blow your mind. I remember her sitting in her chair with a puzzle board on her lap while my grandpaw watched westerns on a rainy day. Good times
Look at baby Karen!
I'm capricorn too !! I love this channel, that's why I start following you! I marvel at puzzles!!!! Keep on you are gorgeous
Thank you for sharing that old footage. I found it really endearing, your younger self. And what an amazing progress and still the same passion for jigsaw puzzles!!! I think that’s great! 😊
I’ve been working on your 3000 piece puzzle and it has been constantly so much FUN! I love the colors and am excited to do the next one. I love these massive 9000 piece puzzles cause I would never do these but there so fun to watch you tackle them honestly haha!
Your passion inspires me and brings out my Leo roar ❤
I just found you and love you videos ! I found you with your ravensburger world Championship video and it made me buy the puzzles of the finale to compare myself ❤️❤️❤️
This is my absolutely most favourite puzzle set i’d love to do one day!! I’m so glad to see you do this set omg 🥹🥹
I am a Taurus, and I love watching Karen do these puzzles. I don't have the patience to do puzzles myself. So I prefer to watch her instead.
You are an underdeveloped Taurus if you work on your mental health we are the most patient sign and perfect for puzzles and mysteries
@@moonlike19Maybe not underdeveloped, just other signs in their chart. Have to look at all the planets and aspects
Hi karen, when i watching you doing your puzzle it gives me a calm mind and make my mood become better. I love this type of video❤
Hey Karen! Found your puzzle today at Barnes and Noble’s here in San Antonio, Texas. It’s beautiful! Keep up the good work!
