Custom Family Stickers That Beat Stick Figures

A Rainy Sunday Project

Here's an easy one for a rainy Sunday. Upload photos of your family to stickerme.club and make a personalised family sticker sheet with everyone as illustrated characters.

You've got two ways to do it:

  • Everyone in one scene. Add up to four photos to one design and the whole crew shares a scene: a family exploring a forest, a pirate crew, a space mission.
  • A sheet each. Each person picks their own scene and gets their own sheet. The seven-year-old goes straight for Space Explorer. The four-year-old picks Dino World. Someone else takes fifteen minutes to decide. The dog can have a sheet of its own.

Once the stickers arrive, they can go on the fridge, a laptop, a lunchbox or the car.

The Part Where Everyone Picks a Scene

This is where it gets fun, and where you learn things about your family you didn't expect. Letting each person choose turns the whole process into a conversation. One kid wants to be a dinosaur rider because they've just finished a book about palaeontologists. Another wants to float in space because "astronauts don't have to eat broccoli." Someone wants a cape.

The choosing is half the experience. You sit around the table, scroll through scenes together, and suddenly everyone's debating whether Dad would be a better wizard or pirate.

On the Family Noticeboard

Think about what's already on your fridge. School artwork. Appointment reminders. A save-the-date from a wedding two years ago. A personalised family sticker sheet fits right in there with the rest of the family noticeboard.

And when a visitor asks, "Is that you as a unicorn?", you get to say yes.

Better Than Car Window Stick Figures

You know those stick-figure families on car windows? The ones where everyone is a featureless blob with a label? Custom family stickers are that concept, evolved. Each character looks like the person. The scenes reflect who they are. And instead of a generic stick mum holding a shopping bag, you get an illustrated version of yourself riding a dragon.

For a car window, pick a bigger size. Every sheet is laminated and waterproof, and our sticker materials and sizing guide covers which size suits which surface.

A Holiday Keepsake

Making a sheet before a family trip captures a specific moment: the kids at those exact ages, in that phase of life. Put everyone in the same adventure scene, like a family exploring a forest before a trip to Tassie.

A year later, it's a little time capsule. You could make one every year and keep them together: a timeline of who you were, scene by scene.

If you're looking for more ways to turn family moments into personalised keepsakes, milestone stickers are worth a look too.

Don't Forget the Grandparents

Grandparents might not mind what scene they're in, as long as they're with the grandkids. If you're thinking of making one as a gift for grandparents, put them in the same scene as the kids.

A Family Portrait That Gets Displayed

Professional family photos are beautiful, but they take effort to frame and hang. Digital photos live on a phone nobody scrolls through. A personalised family sticker sheet can go on the fridge, the laptop, the back of the car: places you see every day.

It's not replacing the family photo. It's the version of the family photo that makes your kids laugh.

Design your family sticker sheet. The hardest part is agreeing on Dad's scene.
