Design Your Own Custom Slide Puzzles


As part of the children's activities kits for the wedding reception, I made custom slide puzzles. Remember spending hours trying to solve these as a kid? That's the idea! Keep the kids occupied for as long as possible!

Oriental Trading sells blank slide puzzles here. They cost less than $5 for 24!


Find an image you want to use on your slide puzzle, and crop it on the computer to 2"x2". We used an image of one of our pets, and I added our names and wedding date. The bottom right square (#16) should be blank.

Split the image into 16 squares (4 rows, 4 columns). Number each square 1 - 16. I used Gimp to split the image into 16 layers so they were easy to re-position.

Design Your Own Custom Slide Puzzles
Print out copies of your scrambled image onto full-size sheet labels, then cut them down to size (2"x2"). Attach the image label onto your slide puzzle very carefully, aligning all the squares on the label with the puzzle squares.

With an Exacto knife, cut along the edges of the label squares, so that the puzzle squares are moveable.

Then, try to solve your puzzle!
