Our story

Wobbles and all.

Every Doobee pendant starts with a photo of your child's, your family's, or your friend's drawing. We trace each line with care, then make it in stainless steel, finished in silver or gold. The wobble stays. The loop stays. The heart stays exactly as they drew it.

our story image

How we began

It started with one drawing.

Our co-founder Phoebe teaches at a preschool in Auckland. Every week, the children's drawings piled up on her desk, and every week a few felt too good to end up in a bin.

One day, a parent asked if there was any way to keep her child's drawing without it fading in a drawer or on the fridge. There wasn't. So that question became Doobee.

Now we trace each drawing line for line, so it can stay close to the people who love them.

How it works

Three simple steps

Send us a photo of the drawing. We'll take care of the rest.

Send us the drawing

A photo is all we need. A school drawing, a scribble on a napkin, a masterpiece off the fridge.

We trace every line

We follow each line exactly as they drew it. Nothing smoothed, nothing corrected. You'll see a preview and approve it before we make your pendant.

Asked most often

Answered honestly

Will it really look like my child's drawing?

Yes. We trace the exact lines, shapes and colours from your photo - nothing is smoothed out or redrawn to look "neater."

What if the drawing is faint, or in pencil?

Send it anyway. We can strengthen faint lines when we prepare your preview, and you'll see it before anything is made.

Can I see it before it's made?

Yes. Every order includes a free preview by email, and we don't start making it until you approve it.

Is it safe for sensitive skin?

Our pendants are stainless steel and hypoallergenic, so they're comfortable for everyday wear.

Can it get wet?

Yes. The pendant is waterproof, so you can wear it every day.

What if I'm not happy with it?

Tell us within 30 days of delivery and we'll give you a full refund, no reason needed. Return postage is at your cost.

"My daughter drew a wobbly sun with a heart in the middle when she was four. Six years later I wear it every day, and she has no idea it's the exact same drawing."

"The proof looked exactly like his drawing, right down to the wonky eyebrows. He cried when he saw it finished."

"Ordered it with our son's very first scribble. It's the only necklace I haven't taken off since."
