I have a 6 year old, wait, 6 ½ year old (that half is
really important to her), and she LOVES her stuffed animals. I recently came
across a company called Budsies that will take those super cute animal drawings
the kiddos do and turns them into stuffed animals! There was no way we could
pass up this deal in making a little monster of our own, and Fallon didn’t disappoint.
Once you have the drawing you want, you upload it to the
Budsies website and follow their prompts in completing your order. They do have
an option to have a sneak peak for a small extra charge. I do recommend doing
this so you can see the progress of your little ones new friend.
I was really impressed on how well the communication was
with Budgies. They emailed me on every step to update me on what was going on.
They were very fast and it wasn’t long before Fallon had Freddie.
While I was impressed with the communication, Budsies did
even better with creating Freddie. They took all the colors Fallon did and did
really well with what she drew. The quality is amazing. You can tell they took
pride in this business. All their products are hand made from start to finish.
They pick out the fabric, colors to match and hand sew each and everything else
involved. So when I say you can tell they take pride, you really can tell.
Budsies are 100% polyester hypoallergenic! They do
recommend to not give the pluses to children under 3 years of age Since some toys may have
small/thin fabric pieces,
Fallon wasn’t home when Freddie arrived, but I facetimed
her and showed her him. When she came home the next day, the first thing she
wanted to see was him, and it was so cute! She sleeps with him everynight and
has him play with the rest of her stuffed animals. He really is a part of her
little stuffed animal family now, it’s official.
If you have an older child or friend that is out of the
stuffed animal stage, don’t worry, Budsies still has you covered. You can take
a selfie (or a picture) of yourself, a friend and have a plush made to look
like them, or even a loved one that has passed. How cool would that be as a
gift.
Don’t let the prices intimated you, Budsies does have do
6 month interest free financing if you need it. They are higher priced, but
like I said above there are very good reasons for that. These aren’t made in a
factory where you can run to the store down the street. They are hand made
based on a drawing or a picture, and are well worth the price. I highly
recommend you consider for a great project or gift.

ReplyDeleteWow! What an amazing concept you offer. Cameron has been drawing some very interesting dragons recently and I know he would love to see one of his works of art transformed into a stuffy. Your product is great for a gift as well. It would be so much fun to take someone's drawing and have it made into a stuffy without them know and then giving it to them as a gift. Thanks for introducing me to your product!
