Terri Ramsey Beavers If you haven’t heard about Budsies yet, you’re missing out. Budsies are custom stuffed animals from a drawing. Any drawing. Check out Abby’s new Easter bunny Budsie below. The kids are getting older but I still love to celebrate every holiday as if they’re not. It’s my way of kidding myself that time is standing still. So, no matter how old they get, I still buy them Easter Baskets and fill them with fun products I find on the world wide web. I do 99.9 percent of my shopping online due to failed back surgery but that’s a whole other post. While surfing around for ideas, I discovered Budsies.com. And voila, a lightbulb moment occurred. I can make the kids an Easter Basket that’s not quite as babyish by adding in something unique while managing to preserve something they’ve made at the same time. I’m nostalgic like that.
If you’re like me, I’m sure you have plenty of drawings your kids have made that would make darling stuffed animals. And talk about easy. Creating a Budsies is as easy as 1, 2, 3, 4. Plus, you can also make selfies, petsies and more. Let me walk you thru creating a Budsies but it’s so easy, you won’t need any help, I’m sure.
To create your own Budsies, head on over to their website. Then at the top right corner, click on make your own.
Step 1. After you decide what Budsies type you’d like to create, upload your photo.
Step 2. After your photo is uploaded, describe your Budsies.
Step 3. If you’d like to upgrade your Budsies, you’ll have the option of doing so.
Step 4. Enter your email address then select add to cart.
Like I said, creating a Budsies is as easy as 1, 2, 3, 4. As you’re creating your Easter baskets this year, I hope you’ll consider adding a Budsies to it. While I’m pushing Budsies as a unique Easter gift, they can also be classified as gifts for any occasion. If you’d like to see my other gift suggestions, click on the link in my top menu.

That is so cute! I think this is a nice way of preserving my daughter’s artworks and memories.
Those are the cutest! What a cool idea. I wish I had seen it when my girls were younger. I think they really would have loved to invent their own stuffed animal.
What a cute idea! My kids come up with some pretty crazy drawings and characters.
These are some great Easter gift idea…I would love to make stuffed animals for my cheeky monkey! Love it 🙂
This is so cute a great gift for Easter I would love to get one and place it on our bed. I used to collect bunnies when I was a kid. Seeing this reminds me of my childhood day.
That’s a really unique & wonderful idea…kids would simply go crazy over it. Guess, it’ll also motivate them to learn drawing better : )

What a cute rabbit, wait, is that a rabbit? Haha! Cute really!
This is a fantastic idea! It’s so creative.
Oh my goodness this is just the cutest idea! I love the idea of being able to make your own drawing come to life as a stuffed toy!
This is such a great idea! From a kid’s perspective, it would be so nice to have your drawing come to life! Will keep this in mind for my future children. 🙂
I just love Budsies! My daughter got a butterfly from them from a drawing she did. I was so impressed by the company! I love your bunny.
This is such a cute idea! I have no doubt my nieces would rave over these!
Oh wow my boy would go crazy for this, I might try it for his birthday and make it a bit personal. Thank you for this.
Oh wow! This would be a wonderful gift idea at any age. No one ever truly grows out of loving stuffed animals!
How unique and cool! I wish this was a craft when I was a kid. Although now that I think about it, I think in home ec class in school we sewed up stuffed animals! #blastfromthepast
