Puzzles with a little more magic

Whimsyblom® is a small Swedish family business, born from a simple love of puzzling.

For us, puzzles have always been a way to switch off from everything else. A break from work and screens, and a chance to find a different kind of calm. There is something wonderfully satisfying about watching an image slowly come to life, piece by piece. And that feeling when the right piece falls perfectly into place – it is hard to beat.

The idea for Whimsyblom began when we happened to discover puzzles featuring so-called whimsy pieces – playfully shaped pieces hidden within the puzzle. We were instantly hooked.

When we started looking for similar puzzles in Sweden, we discovered something: they were surprisingly difficult to find.

And that is how Whimsyblom was born.

A different kind of puzzle experience

We wanted to create puzzles that feel special before the very first piece is even placed.

That is why our puzzles feature sturdy, thick pieces, irregular outer shapes, beautiful artwork and unexpected specially shaped pieces to discover along the way. The result is a puzzle experience that feels both more substantial and a little more playful than a traditional puzzle.

Our designs are inspired by the things we love – Swedish fika, Scandinavian settings, our beautiful nature and archipelago, but also fairy tales, trolls and imaginary worlds where you can disappear for a while.

Because that is exactly the feeling we want to create.

This is my time

A moment when the phone can be put aside. When nothing needs to happen quickly and the only thing asking for your attention is which piece fits next.

We don't believe a great puzzle needs to take over the entire dining table for weeks.

Whimsyblom puzzles are created in a convenient format with just the right number of pieces – challenging enough to give you that wonderful puzzling feeling, without becoming an endless project.

We want the sense of quality to be there throughout the entire experience: from the first look at the box and the feel of the sturdy pieces in your hands, to the moment the very last piece falls into place.

Our hope is that every design becomes something to look forward to, to give as a gift and to collect.

And perhaps most of all, that just like us, you'll finish your first Whimsyblom puzzle and immediately start looking forward to the next.
