Okay, so today I was supposed to be writing a post about something else, which is going to have to wait until next week now because I saw this over on Domestic Sluttery and HAD to tell you about it! [Breathe]

It’s the cutest little idea I’ve come across in a long time, really innovative and personal and it’s a perfect Christmas present for a whole range of ages. Its called Stuff Your Doodles and it’s a company based up in Scotland which had the idea that maybe, when you’ve doodled all over your note pad at work/home while on the phone to people with flowers, hearts and crazy characters, you might fancy turning them into cuddly toys! Better still, you can send in one of your children’s first drawings and they’ll transform them into real life making the memories last forever – let me hear you say “Ahhh!”

Here’s a little peek at their online gallery to give you an idea of what they do, I have taken a particular liking to the “Wizard” drawn by four year old Gus. Next to it you can see the cuddly toy version.

Now I love to doodle, so if Kian isn’t up for putting forward one of his masterpieces I’m going to take pen to paper and submit one of mine and I shall call her Little Miss Hectic Mum!

The price of each doodle character varies but all you need to do is send your doodle to them and they’ll tell you how much it’ll cost before they start the creation of your very own real life doodle - fantastic stocking fillers for everyone in the family.
