We have a friend who's 40th Birthday is coming up and I asked my husband yesterday what we should get him for his birthday, to which my husband replied "What do you get the man who has everything?"
A very good point. We quite often have presents to get for people who have a high disposable income (lucky things!) and who buy the things they want as they see them... makes for a difficult pursuit looking for the ideal present.
Well I've had some customers who have tackled that by having something truly personalised created for their loved ones:
 |
| This Supreme Dalek Figure was made for one lovely customer's 40th Birthday as he's a real Dr Who fan! |
 |
| The Supreme Dalek Toy my version was based on. |
Another customer wanted a large Subaru Impreza Car Cushion to give to her son as he was having to sell his beloved pride & joy due to an expanding family!
 |
| Felt Subaru Impreza Car Cushion (Complete with personalised number plates) |
Having seen the
Personalised London Bus that I sell a great number of, asked if I could make a New York City Bus, with personalised plates:
 |
| New York City Bus, based on the photos sent by the customer |
A completely lovely, but puppy-crazy friend and wonderful customer asked me to replicate her two Chinese Crested Powder Puff dogs in cushion form:
 |
| Holly & Noodle - the gorgeous puppies who got their own cushions... they were supposed to be for their owner, but they both claimed their cushion and refused to be parted!! |
Finally, the first real custom item I was asked to create, was this enhanced VW Beetle, known as a Baja Bug and used for off-roading, requested by a customer in Germany for her brother, who had once owned this car:
Hope you enjoyed that little round up and feel free to contact me if there is something wild and wacky that you'd like to see immortalised in felt!
