How the Puzzle Pieces Are Made
Bits and Pieces uses recycled cardboard with a thick chipboard backing to make each piece solid and resistant to bending during assembly. The random die-cut process ensures that every piece has a unique shape, which helps create a lock-tight fit between pieces. This design also means no two pieces in the puzzle are exactly alike, adding to the challenge and satisfaction of completion.
What Comes in the Box
The puzzle pieces arrive inside a reusable two-piece box. The colorful cover shows the full artwork, while the white bottom tray makes it easy to store the puzzle after use or pass it along to a friend. The box itself is sturdy enough to keep pieces safe between puzzling sessions.
