Can you tell I'm extremely into the idea of preserving a child's youth? Is that normal considering I have no children? I'll wonder these things in the privacy of my room later. In the meantime, look at this guy.
This Etsy seller will put a child's drawing (or anyone's drawing really) onto a small keyring for you for $90 - $140 (depending on the size of the drawing). I don't know if that's a ludicrous price, but I would probably consider doing it some day. It's such a sweet idea.
Wendy Tsao runs Child's Own Studio and has been turning children's drawings into stuffed animals since 2007.
I'm conflicted about whether I want to congratulate this woman on coming up with such a unique business idea or whether I want to QUIT EVERYTHING AND SOMEHOW ALIGN MYSELF WITH HER TO CREATE THESE DRAWINGS AS A CAREER. Can you imagine how fun this must be?
Prices run between $90 and $140 (Canadian), plus shipping costs - and there's obviously a wait list. But honestly, if you know how to use a sewing machine (and you should), I don't see what could be stopping you from trying to do this on your own. I would've never even thought of such an idea, but wouldn't it be an incredible gift? I don't know if a child would love it as much as I think they would (and should), but this is definitely going to be something I'll attempt if I ever have children. SUCH a genius idea. You can see more of her work here.
