Can you turn children’s drawings into jewelry? Yes, you can. Unbelievable, but true! It is all thanks to this nine-year-old Turkish jewelry company, called Tasarim Takarim, that collects kids’ doodles and designs them into wearable jewelry.
If you have kids who doodle, now is your chance to give their creations to this company that holds the expertise of turning your children’s drawing into jewelry. This way, you can wear your children’s creations on your person.
The proud co-founder of the jewelry company, Yasemin Erdin Tavukçu, exudes, “It’s like a single moment of someone’s childhood becomes timeless.” And why not, which parent wouldn’t like to preserve for posterity a piece of jewelry as a memento of their kids’ creation?
The company has a unique procedure of converting children’s drawing into jewelry. When Tasarim Takarim receives the drawing from its customers, Tavukçu and Özgür Karavit, the company’s painter, sculptor and goldsmith, try to visualize the best way to convert the child’s doodle into jewelry. They also figure out in which piece of jewelry would this doodle look the best – cufflinks, bracelets, necklaces or some other item.
For Tavukçu, every drawing is unique and so evidently their application solutions and techniques also need to be unique. The nature of the drawing dictates how the pieces are cut. Since there is no set pattern of the doodles, these jewelry pieces are usually hand cut from silver or gold-plated silver.
If the drawing is an intricate one and more details are required, the designer resorts to laser engraving. Of course, all this is a time-consuming process and takes about a week to get into the final shape. Little wonder, these pieces of jewelry cost upwards of $165.
It is not all profit for Tavukçu, she also presents some jewelry pieces to parents. It is certainly a treat to watch the response of children, when they find their drawings in the shape of wearable jewelry.
