Turn your kid's doodles from art to artifact
There's a box on top of my fridge overflowing with punk-rock ponies, witches on broomsticks, and smiley-faced dolphins, each one representing a special stage in my daughter's artistic development. They're amazing in two dimensions. Can you imagine how incredible they'd be in 3D?If your kid has a favorite doodle, we've found a way to make that dream come true.
Stuff Your Doodles
is a sweet little enterprise by artist LucyMoose, who uses imagination,
recycled fabric, and thread to turn drawings into heirlooms. You send
her your child's favorite doodle, and she translates it into a
beautiful, hand-made stuffed animal about 20" in size.
The process takes about three weeks and costs around $150, plus postage from the UK, so think of it for a really special gift. Maybe even for Grandma? Yeah, it's a little pricey. But this is an heirloom piece that will forever remind you of that lopsided dragon she drew every day for three months straight. It's not often that a kid gets to see her artwork truly brought to life.~Delilah

Here's Something Cool
We should always use innovative ideas to decor our kids bedrooms.Stuff your doodles had brought a new concept.
What a neat idea! My kids draw a lot and we always hang up the pictures on the fridge. It would be awesome if we could make them into actual stuffed toys. I think I just thought of some great Christmas gift ideas :)
What a fantastic idea!
