Last month, I talked about how Pinduoduo has become more popular over the years, becoming even more convenient to use than Taobao. Well, today, I’ve got to share one of the cutest custom-made things I’ve found on the app.
When it comes to little kids and their adorable drawings, I know I’m not alone when I say that every parent is proud of their little artist and their creations. I’ve got plenty of cute drawings my 4-year-old made at home, and I’ve discovered vendors on Pinduoduo who can turn them into jewelry. And when the grandparents come to visit (or when you’re getting ready to come up with creative holiday gifts) these make adorable stocking stuffers.
It all started when my daughter drew a “blue yellow fish” for her grandpa. She was so proud of it that I really wanted to find a way to keep this artwork.
Then, as if Pinduoduo read my mind, the algorithm pushed a seller who takes kids’ drawings and turns them into keychains and necklaces. For about RMB 90 you send them a picture of the drawing directly on the app and they’ll send you a confirmation along with the size.
Then a few weeks later they mail you the actual keychain all wrapped up in a pretty little gift box. My dad absolutely adored his fish and has been sporting his new keychain ever since.
The seller has different options of colored or clear pendants. As for myself, I couldn’t help but get one as well. My “rinosaurus” now hangs proudly on my purse and my little girl loves showing people her artwork.
Pro tip: They can only work with artwork that’s done in markers. Crayons and colored pencils are too light.
There are plenty of vendors on Pinduoduo who make these products. If you’d like to try it out with the one who made ours, scan the QR code below.
