Full of imagination, children create dozens of drawings every day, but what to do with them? Stuck on the fridge, spread on the table or stored in a box in the attic, they are part of a child's everyday lives, in the same way as their toys. The start-up, Budsies, offers the possibility of bringing this artwork to life thanks to a team of artists.
All you need to do is to upload, send or create the desired drawing on the company's site. It is then analysed by a designer who models it and gives it a shape. At this stage, the idea is presented to the parents for validation and the start of production. Entirely hand-made, the stuffed toy only contains hypo-allergenic materials. The brand states that they rigorously follow "the quality standards on seams and materials" so that the toys are without danger for small children.
Hand packaged and accompanied by the original printed drawing, the artwork turned into a cuddly toy is sent directly to the desired address. Made in 8 weeks, this customised soft toy for children over 3 costs 69 dollars (around 55 euros) including delivery. However, an additional cost is added for delivery to the European Union.
