The Le Puzz Gift Guide 2024

26.11.24 — Le Puzz World

Hey puzzle friends! Need a few gift ideas? Of course we think puzzles are THE BEST gift idea but we also occasionally like other things too. The team at Le Puzz put together a little wishlist featuring a few things that caught our attention this year from some of our favorite artists, designers and small businesses.

Shop small or not at all!

  1. Mushroom Vacuum, Amazon, $13.59 - The perfect gift for anyone who likes to keep things neat and tidy, or perhaps should make a resolution to keep things tidy. Ideal for picking up puzzle dust from a fresh box, ridding a desk of puzzle dust, or even cleaning a car of puzzle dust.
  2. Seeing Is Believing by Hilma Af Klint, Crush & Touch, $35.00 - A beautiful book filled with af Klint’s final abstractions and essays to go along side them. A book for a coffee table or bookshelf, that will always be thumbed through.
  3. Face Vessel, Coming Soon, $50.00, Designed by Neal Drobnis - Cute and each one uniquely their own. Perfect for celebrating joy for the little things.
  4. Sorry Balloon Set, Third Drawer Down, $18.00, Designed by Adam JK - Sometimes sorry isn’t enough, and these balloons fill the void where words do not.
  5. Cupholder, Tanchen, $35.00 - Not only is this gift perfect for the person that has everything, but it will come just in time for anyone who loves an iced coffee in winter. Is a beverage an accessory? It is now.
  6. Seth Bogart Ceramic LEGGS Toothbrushes, Wacky Wacko, $299.00 - In true Le Puzz fashion, we believe that fake replicas of real objects are the best gifts on earth. While this toothbrush may not make your teeth white, it will make their holiday bright.
  7. The Ida Anklet, Philippa Made, $64.00 - We won’t say anklets are back because perhaps they never left. The perfect jewelry that suits just about everyone. With multiple colors to choose from their ankles will dazzle us all.
  8. Stickers, Greenwich Letterpress, $5.00 - No one’s ever been sad to get a sticker. These are great for adding a fun or funky look to journals, cars, laptops, and phones. Decorate away.
  9. Hand Knit Balaclava, Weird Shape Studios, $74.79 -  When you can’t knit them something yourself, this is the next best thing. Warm and comforting as the days get shorter, and the nights get colder.
  10. Ribbon Dessert Plate, Sprezz, $130.00 - Taking the term cutie pie literally with these dessert plates. Great for anyone who loves to host, and wants people to lick their plates clean. With ribbons and dishes like these, no one can blame them.
  11. The Advantages of Being a Woman Tea Towel X Guerrilla Girls, Third Drawer Down, $28.00 - Say it all with a tea towel! This tea towel featuring a Gorilla Girls piece, originally a poster from 1988 is the perfect addition to any feminists kitchen,
  12. Cherry Blossom Knit Blanket, Cold Picnic, $210.00 - Perfect for anyone already daydreaming of spring. We can’t help but think this blanket would be the perfect gift for your coziest friend.
  13. The Pill, Coming Soon, $145.00 - The Pill is quite literally the cutest wine carrier we’ve ever laid our eyes on. Show up to your next picnic (or holiday party!) in style with this chillable bottle bag!
  14. Orange key chain, Little King, $18.00 - Another great gift of real life things made fake. Great for anyone looking to decorate bags and keys with trinkets good enough to fake eat.
  15. Snail World 2, Aleia x Pillow Cat Books, $39.00 - Give a one way ticket to slime world, the strange and sticky universe where snails get to play. Miniature sets brought to life by Aleia Murawski, Sam Copeland, and real snails.
  16. Polaroid 600 Miffy Instant Film Camera, Retrospekt, $179.00 - Instant photos are endless fun especially in the holiday season. There’s nothing quite like the gift of making memories.
  17. Everybody Sun Nightlight, Dusen Dusen x Areaware, $35.00 - A nightlight to help hide the fact that it’s dark at 4:30. It automatically turns on when the lights go out and off when the sun comes up. A great gift for anyone who takes an afternoon nap and doesn’t want to wake up and think it’s 11 P.M.
  18. Day Is Done DVD, Mike Kelly Foundation, 50.00 - A feature length film running 2.5 hours long. A theatrical project with a fractured and loose narrative set over parts 2-32. John Waters says it’s “A true epic!”

  20. Giant Aspirin, Great Big Stuff, $21.00 - What more could anyone need this holiday season than a larger than life Aspirin to deal with larger than life holiday headaches.
  21. Detergent Xtra Milk, Dedcool, $35.00 - We agreed unanimously this to be the best smelling detergent. Sometimes the practical everyday stuff, makes the best gifts of all.
  22. Mini Fiorella Earrings, Laura Lombardi, $110.00 - We love everything LL makes but ont thing we really love about these puffy little earrings, is that they remind us of our childhood fave - Chicken and Stars soup. On sale now!
