By Eileen age 8 – Child’s Own

Child’s Own is the label behind these lovely cuddly creatures, made after children’s drawings.

Wendy Tsao started her home-based craft business after having the simple idea of making a recognizable comfort toy for a 4 year-old boy based on his drawing. Using the young artist’s imagination and unconditioned expression to create a cuddly toy that will become his friend.

Apparently she hit a soft spot in the cuddles market, as Tsao has already made hundreds of toys from drawings, send to her by children, so far. All unique little characters, like the children that made them up.

Hmm, drawing and then actually getting your personalized 3D cuddly friend model… I can see a possible brand extension  😉
