Turn your child's drawing into a doll

This is adorable.

It sure is, isn’t it? :slight_smile:

Almost makes me wish I had a kid. Hey, my niece has two of them!

I cannot even handle it. I mean, they’re just ridiculously endearing. But…

I also remember getting *so *frustrated as a kid that I couldn’t make my drawings look the way I wanted them to. (I still feel this way, in fact.) I didn’t mean for them to have unrealistic-looking faces and bizarre proportions and weird skin colors and so on. My only hope was that people could somehow get a sense of what I was going for, that the lines and squiggles could convey something greater than the sum of their parts. Getting a doll like this, I think, would have just hammered home to me that no, my drawings looked exactly as crappy to others as they did to me.

But she says she made one for her son and he totally loved it, so perhaps this is just another one of the many ways in which I am uniquely nutballs.

Most of my son’s drawings would not make cute dolls - more like horrific. :smiley:

He’s a sweet, well-adjusted boy, but his artwork … ! Let’s just say it would give some people the wrong impression of his mental stability. :wink:

I’ve got to send in a Cy Twombly and see what I get back

I’ve sent this link to my friends with young kids… it’s just too dang adorable

Guess I’m nutballs too! :smiley: I actually quit drawing people at one point after a classmate loudly pointed out that I had failed to “draw a line for the stomach”. On the other hand, I think the misshapen figures I created would have actually made really cute dolls – big circles with little stick arms and legs. I’m not sure how I would have felt about getting one as a child though.

This is great!
