Turn a finished photo collage into a personalized jigsaw puzzle. The photo collage custom puzzle takes a collage image you have already prepared (a year of family photos, the highlights of a wedding, a tribute to grandkids) and prints it across the puzzle. Build your collage in any photo editor, upload the finished image through the personalization form, and your collage is printed onto pre-cut puzzle board and ships gift-boxed.

Photo Collage Puzzle Features
-
Print-Your-Collage Service: Upload your finished collage image and it is printed across the puzzle exactly as submitted. You control the layout completely; we focus on the print quality and the gift-box presentation.
-
Same Premium Print Quality: Your collage is printed in high resolution on thick puzzle-grade card stock, color-matched to your original image and finished with a glare-resistant matte surface.
-
Four Piece Counts: 99 (pocket), 100 XL (large-piece), 500, and 1000. The 100 XL and 500-piece formats have the same finished image area; 1000 pieces gives the largest canvas.
-
Custom Gift Box Included: Every size except the 99-piece ships in a full-color gift box with the collage printed on the lid. Your dedication text can also be added to the box.
-
Any Number of Photos: The collage is your design, so you decide how many photos to include and how to arrange them. Check the size of each photo within the finished collage, rather than choosing a photo count alone. Important faces should remain recognizable at the selected print size.
-
Fully Personalized: Add a name, date, or short dedication for the box lid. Use the order notes for any printing preferences.
Collage Puzzle Sizes and Piece Counts
1000 Piece Collage Puzzle With Box
19 x 27 in. Largest finished collage in this range. Check the assembled dimensions before choosing a frame. A weekend of sessions, roughly 5 to 12 hours depending on experience.
500 Piece Collage Puzzle With Box
13.5 x 19 in. Same finished image area as 100 XL, divided into more pieces. A single evening, usually 2 to 4 hours of solving.
100 XL Piece Collage Puzzle With Box
13.5 x 19 in. Same finished size as the 500-piece but with extra-large tiles for easier handling. Choose the layout based on the 13.5 x 19 inch print area and the size of each face. Typically 30 to 45 minutes for one adult.
99 Piece Collage Puzzle With Tube
3.5 x 5.1 in. Pocket-sized collage puzzle that ships in a mailer tube. Keep important faces and details large enough to recognize at this compact print size. A quick build, typically 15 to 30 minutes for one adult.
Times vary with experience, the photo chosen and how many people are solving.
How to Customize
-
Prepare Your Collage: Use any photo editor to lay out your photos into a single image. Free tools that work well: our free photo collage maker (it includes this puzzle's exact print sizes and flags any photo that would print soft), your phone's built-in collage feature, or a simple grid template in any word processor. Aim for a 5:7 aspect ratio and 4 megapixels or higher resolution. You can confirm both in seconds with the free photo resolution checker.
-
Upload the Finished Collage: Through the personalization form on this page, upload your finished collage image as a single JPG or PNG.
-
Pick Your Piece Count: 100 XL and 500 pieces both print at 13.5 x 19 inches; choose between them by piece size and assembly preference. Choose 1000 for a 19 x 27 inch print, or 99 for a compact 3.5 x 5.1 inch puzzle.
-
Add Notes (Optional): Use the Notes field for any printing preferences or a short dedication to print on the box lid.
-
Printed as Submitted: Your collage is printed exactly as submitted, so see whether you get a proof before printing.

Collage Layout Tips
-
Grid layouts (uniform tiles arranged in rows) print cleanly because the photos read as a planned design.
-
Heart-shaped clusters suit anniversaries and memorial pieces where the shape adds meaning.
-
Freeform mixed-size layouts look great when one clear hero photo anchors the design.
-
Avoid heavy overlap or layouts where one face is much smaller than the rest; small details get harder to recognize once the image is cut into pieces.
-
Mix events and years freely. Engagement, ceremony, and reception, or a full twelve months of family life, all belong in one collage.
Why Giftenova
Designed by our small Giftenova team and made to order, with 100,000+ orders delivered worldwide. Every collage puzzle is inspected and gift-boxed before it ships. If something is not perfect, we make it right.
One Puzzle, Many Memories. A collage puzzle holds more than one moment. It turns a year, a relationship, a family, or a tribute into one connected piece-by-piece reveal. The recipient does not just see one photo when the puzzle is complete; they see the whole story, arranged in one frame.

Note: All piece-count options, including 100 XL, are intended for ages 13 and up. For the sharpest collage, prepare your image at 4 megapixels or higher with good lighting and clear subjects; each photo on the collage gets less canvas than a single-photo print, so resolution matters more on collages than on single-photo puzzles. Our guide on choosing photos that print well covers resolution and lighting. Printed colors may vary slightly from screen. Keep assembled puzzles out of persistent direct sunlight and avoid humid spaces so the pieces do not warp.
