1. Practical gifts for the jigsaw puzzler.
If you live with a jigsaw fanatic, you will know that they can take up a lot of room. (The jigsaws, not the fanatic). Usually the dining room table is taken over.
Get them a puzzle board or mat that allows them to easily store their puzzles when they’re not working on them. Or if they have room a dedicated jigsaw puzzle table would be amazing.
This roll up mat from the Puzzle Ready Store comes with jigsaw piece sorting trays.
This rotating Jigsaw Puzzle table with drawers would be something I would like. Hint, Hint.
This is such a practical gift, and so useful.
2. Accessories for the jigsaw puzzle itself.
This gift would be great for those who like to keep their puzzles after they finish them. Maybe they frame them.
This puzzle glue dries quickly, is crystal clear and protects and strengthens your puzzle so you can frame it.
Simply Peel the Backing from The Adhesive Sheets and Stick to the Back of Your Finished Puzzle.
3. Puzzle themed decor
Help your favorite puzzle enthusiast bring their passion into their living space with puzzle-themed decor. Think puzzle piece wall art or sculptural pieces that add intrigue to any room. Personalized puzzle-shaped photo frames are a great way to showcase memories, while cozy puzzle-patterned blankets or cushions add a playful touch to their favorite puzzling nook.
4. Puzzle-themed Clothing or Accessories
T-shirts, mugs, or jewelry with puzzle motifs can be a fun and quirky way for them to express their love for puzzles.
I really like this one, also keeps my hair back whilst working on the puzzle!
5. Books & Brain Teasers
If they like jigsaw puzzles 9 times out of 10 they will probably love other types of puzzles too – so here you open yourself to a whole new catergory of gifts.
I like suduko books, but there are loads of different puzzle books to chose from.
6. The serious jigsaw puzzler
If they are fanatic about jigsaws, then they may love this note pad to keep track of their jigsaws. Or perhaps a jigsaw log book.
7. Puzzle Storage and Sorting Trays
Specialized trays or containers for sorting and organizing puzzle pieces can be very helpful for enthusiasts.
8. Personal and customized puzzles
Create a customized puzzle using a meaningful photo or image. There are services that allow you to turn your own images into jigsaw puzzles.
9. Puzzle-themed Board Games
Explore board games that involve strategy or problem-solving to appeal to their puzzle-solving skills.
This looks like a fun one to try, from Kosmos.
10. Amazing Jigsaw Puzzles
Yes, you could always get them another jigsaw puzzle, but how about one that is a bit different such as a wooden one.
11. Good jigsaw puzzles
Of course, anyone who likes jigsaw puzzles, (me included!), just want more jigsaw puzzles. Don’t buy them a ‘funny’ one, such as a blank jigsaw, or a bag of sawdust that says, ‘worlds hardest jigsaw’. They are funny for less than a minute and in my opinion a waste of money. Bring enjoyment by getting a really nice jigsaw. Here are some I would love.
12. The Ultimate gift - tickets to the world championship!
Why not take them to the jigsaw puzzle world championship. This is held in Spain every year. Check it out here.
