Custom Plush Toy From a Child’s Drawing

March 23, 2012

Custom Toys
Send me a drawing made by a special child in your life and I will create a custom softie for you!

This is a project 've been planning for many months and I'm really pleased to say that today the listings are live! I'm only going to take a few at a time (there are three listings right now) so that I can work in small batches and really make something you'll love.

So sort through that overflowing box of artwork and pick a favorite, or have your child draw something this afternoon, send it to me and see it come to life as a huggably soft plush friend!

    I love that you are doing this. I have been doing it for my own child’s stuff, and thought it would make a great income, but had no idea how to make it work. I do not have a business, but in (several) years, when the kids go to school I hope to make a profit from the work of my hands, too. So thanks for the series, it’s been good to delve into the possibilities.
