A massive thank you to everyone who came out to piece things together with us.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe also want to send a huge shoutout and thank you to Best Friends for being such an incredible host venue. For us puzzlers, having a great setup is everything, and we absolutely love their spacious tables, the brilliant natural lighting, and, of course, their delicious wines that keep the creativity flowing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor this event, we tackled four gorgeous 1,000-piece puzzles from Villager Puzzles. If you haven't put together a Villager puzzle yet, you are missing out. We can't commend them enough for their high-quality, glare-free pieces and their dedication to working with and uplifting incredibly talented independent artists. To make sure we could complete these 1,000-piece beauties within our timeframe, all the puzzles were pre-sorted, which made diving into the artwork even more fun!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere are the four specific Villager puzzles we completed:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/villagerpuzzles.com\/products\/dancing-sky-1000-piece-puzzle-for-adults-designed-in-canada-by-vero-filion\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eDancing Sky\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/villagerpuzzles.com\/products\/manning-park-1000-piece-puzzle-for-adults-designed-in-canada-by-anja-jane\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eManning Park\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/villagerpuzzles.com\/products\/saltspringswim-puzzle\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSalt Spring Island\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/villagerpuzzles.com\/products\/yukon-road-trip-1000-piece-puzzle-for-adults-designed-in-canada-by-capri-sadler\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eYukon Road Trip\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to the main \u003ci\u003ePuzzical Chairs\u003c\/i\u003e action, our community puzzle tables were a big hit for those looking for some casual puzzling!

You'll also spot a photo of our dedicated \"after-party\" group who stuck around after the event officially ended to tackle another pre-sorted 1,000-piece puzzle.
