I Put My Toddler’s Artwork on a Sanitizer Holder – Grandmas Bought 1,600 Before Christmas

My three-year-old is a walking abstract artist. Crayon scribbles, finger paint explosions, the kind of “masterpiece” that ends up on the fridge for exactly one week before it disappears into a drawer.

Last November I was testing a new blank and snapped a photo of his latest creation – a rainbow blob with what he swore was a dinosaur. I pressed it onto a Sublimation Blanks Neoprene Hand Sanitizer Holder just to see how the colors would pop on neoprene.

I posted one photo on my Instagram story with the caption “Grandma bait activated.”

By bedtime I had 38 DMs. By morning the number was 147. By the end of the week I had sold 1,600 holders – all with kids’ artwork.

The blank is the Sublimation Blanks Neoprene Hand Sanitizer Holder from INNOSUB USA. It’s soft neoprene with a clear plastic window that holds a standard 1 oz bottle perfectly. Press at 360 °F for 60-90 seconds with medium pressure and the colors soak in like they were painted on. The clip attaches to bags, keys, strollers – anywhere.

Grandmas, nana, mimi, gigi – they all lost their minds. They didn’t care that it was “just scribbles.” They saw their grandbaby’s tiny hand at work and needed it on their purse yesterday.

I priced them at $19.99 (small) and $22.99 (medium bottle size). My cost per finished holder is under $3 in bulk. That’s $16+ profit on something smaller than my palm.

The best part? Customers started sending me their own kids’ art. I turned my little side hustle into a “send me your child’s drawing and I’ll make it forever” service. Repeat orders poured in because every new masterpiece needed its own holder.

If you have a heat press and a phone full of kid art (or customers who do), this blank is quiet holiday gold.

Your fridge art deserves better than a drawer.
