Create a custom restaurant employee bobblehead from your photo as a personalized farewell, retirement or team-appreciation gift. This design can be based on the recipient's face, work outfit and pose using the reference photos you provide.
Personalized farewell bobblehead from photos
Upload a clear front-facing face photo and separate references for the work outfit, hairstyle and pose. If a particular restaurant uniform or workplace detail matters, provide your own reference image so the artist can follow the requested look rather than guessing.
Customize the employee figurine
- Face, hairstyle, facial hair and glasses from your photos.
- Work clothing based on your supplied references.
- Available standing or work-themed poses.
- Requested food, box, name or workplace details subject to scale, feasibility and any additional charge.
Handmade with colored polymer clay
The figurine is sculpted by hand using colored polymer clay. Clay colors are mixed to match skin tone, hair, clothing and other visible details rather than painting the entire finished figurine afterward.
A memorable coworker farewell gift
A custom employee bobblehead can mark a retirement, resignation, transfer, promotion or team farewell. Personal references such as the recipient's usual outfit, pose or a familiar work detail can make the keepsake more meaningful.
Price and proof approval
Single-person designs start at US$109. Optional extras and custom requests can affect the total. The AI preview is a concept image; the artist's sculpture proofs show the actual handmade work. Review those proofs and request changes before approving the piece for baking.
Photos to prepare
- Clear front-facing face photo.
- Side view where useful for hairstyle or profile.
- Work uniform or outfit reference.

FAQs
Choose hairstyles, outfits, poses, accessories and base text. Provide reference photos and explain the details that matter most. Props and complex requests can cost extra. Check the order summary; when a prop is selected, its holding pose takes priority over a separate pose selection.

We started Couple of Things with a simple idea — to create handcrafted gifts for couples, especially for anniversaries and meaningful milestones. From cute figurines to custom bobbleheads, we wanted each piece to celebrate love, memories, and the little things that make a relationship special.
Over time, our collection grew beyond just couple gifts — but the name stuck. Because at the heart of it all, it still comes down to a couple of things: thoughtfulness and joy.
