The holidays are just about here, and you’re probably still struggling to find the perfect gift for a few people on your list. We think we found it: a puzzle depicting a map of their hometown.

Butler & Hill’s Custom Hometown Map Puzzle is a 400-piece puzzle that you can customize with a specific location at the center of the puzzle (you can use the recipient’s home, favorite coffee shop, or any place of special significance), while the rest of the hometown sprawls out around it.

The puzzle is designed using U.S. Geological Survey mapping (so it’s always up to date), and shows 7.5 miles of the area from east to west, including details like notable buildings, roads, and transport lines. At $39.95, it’s a great present for someone who just moved into a new home, relocated to a new city, or just has a lot of hometown pride.

“This is the most personalized and thoughtful gift for family and friends!” said one customer who purchased the puzzle on The Grommet. “We ordered one for my parents – they love their home and puzzles! Great idea and the quality is outstanding. It comes in a beautiful box with a pouch.”

Another reviewer gifted the puzzle to her nephew and his family, and says they were thrilled beyond her expectations. “They could not stop working the puzzle once they started. Now, they are framing it! They said it was so much fun to do and it gave them new places to explore around town that they did not realize were there.”

The puzzle is made from millboard but also comes in a 300-piece wood version for $70. No matter which you choose, it’s a unique, meaningful gift that will make anyone feel extra special. And as one customer summed it up, “This is the perfect gift for someone who has everything – or when you just don’t know what to get.”
