How a kid's drawing becomes a hoodie
Most orders start with a phone photo of a drawing stuck to the fridge. Snap a clear shot in good light, upload it on the product page, and our art team turns it into a clean embroidery file. The line stays your kid's; we don't redraw it from scratch or fix wonky proportions. The wobble is the point.
One of our 13 industrial Melbourne embroidery machines stitches it onto the garment you chose. Two weeks from order to dispatch, posted via AusPost with tracking. If you'd like to see the digitised line before we stitch, add the draft approval option on the product page and we'll email it within three business days.
Single colour, or up to four
By default we keep kid's drawings to a single thread colour, usually black or navy on lighter garments and white on darker ones. Single-colour reads cleanly as embroidery and translates almost any photographed drawing without retouching. If your kid used four crayons in four different colours and the colour is part of the picture, mention it in the order notes and we'll do up to four thread colours per design.
What we stitch onto
The kid's drawing range spans the full RK garment library. Kid sizes 2 through 16, youth sizes, womens and mens hoodies, tees, crewnecks, long-sleeves and totes. Heavyweight 380GSM hoodies for winter, lighter mid-weight crewnecks for the rest of the year. Same drawing, any garment, so a four-year-old's first stick figure can end up on her shirt and her grandfather's hoodie at the same time.
Mother's Day, Father's Day, and the gifts in between
Kid's drawing embroidery sits in the top tier of the actually personal gift category. The peak buying weeks each year are the fortnight before Mother's Day, the fortnight before Father's Day, the week before each grandparent's birthday, and December. Plan two-and-a-half to three weeks of lead time to be safe (two weeks to make, plus shipping). If your deadline is tight, email us first and we'll check what's possible.
The drawing changes; the embroidery doesn't
A four-year-old's drawing of a dog is not the drawing they'll make at seven. Most families end up with one embroidered piece per era, the way previous generations kept a finger-painting on the kitchen wall until it faded. We stitch with quality polyester thread on garments built for actual wear, so the era you preserved stays preserved. If you'd like a quick walkthrough on getting a clean photo of a paper drawing, we wrote one: How to photograph your kid's drawing for embroidery.
Kid's drawing questions
A drawing with clear lines, ideally on plain or light-coloured paper. Marker and dark pencil work best; very light pencil or pastel can be hard to capture. The drawing itself doesn't need to be neat. Wobbly lines, off-centre suns and dogs-that-look-like-sheep all translate well into thread because embroidery is a line medium. If you'd like a quick guide on getting a clean photo of the drawing, we wrote one.
Yes. By default we keep kid's drawings to a single thread colour because it reads cleanly on most garments. If colour is part of the story (a rainbow, a four-colour picture, signature blue dog), mention it in the order notes and we'll match up to four thread colours per design.
Yes. Take the photo and we'll digitise just the drawing, not the lines. Same for graph paper, school workbook pages, or the back of a receipt. The page background gets ignored; only the drawing lines come through as thread.
Embroidery placement and size depend on the garment. As a rough guide, a front-chest design on an adult hoodie is around 12 to 14 cm across; on a kid's tee it's around 8 to 10 cm. We size the drawing to look right on the wearer, not to fill the whole panel.
Yes. Combine the drawings into one photo (a side-by-side scan or collage works fine) and upload that single file. We'll keep them as separate elements in the embroidery and arrange them based on your layout. Two or three drawings in one design reads beautifully on a hoodie back or sleeve.
Handwriting is one of the best parts. Their name, the date they drew it, an "I love you Mum", the wonky letter B that they used to write backwards. We stitch handwriting exactly as it appears, including the backwards letters. If you'd rather we tidy up the spelling, mention it in the order notes.
