I'm new to the Lorax fandom, and kinda shy as I've never been apart of anything like this before, but I'd love to join this year's Thneedmas event!! ❤️💚
Read fully before liking/reblogging!
This event is being run by @miru667
AS A HEADS UP, WE’RE LOOKING FOR MAKEUP GIFT VOLUNTEERS THIS YEAR!
Makeup gift volunteers fill in when a participant is unable to get a gift from their assigned partner; these things happen sometimes! If you’d like to volunteer for this role, please message @miru667. Thanks again!
This blog itself is meant to organize the Lorax fandom’s various “Secret Santa” styled events, and to share the works created by our participants once each exchange has ended. Participants do not have to follow, but if you’d like to keep tabs, feel free to follow our tag: #unitetheloraxfandom
Here are the rules!
1) To sign up you must LIKE AND REBLOG the official post for the current exchange. That would be this one! We will try to message people once they’ve been added to the participants list, so look out for that!
2) We will be contacting you via Tumblr Direct Messaging (DM) to first confirm your participation, and then later to send you the name of your buddy. But you don't have DMs on, we will be sending it to your tumblr inbox. Make sure you have your inbox open please! You don’t need to have anon on. If we can’t contact you, you will be taken OFF of the list without warning.
3) If you change your URL after signing up, you MUST tell us. If you will be unavailable to answer DMs for more than 3 days, PLEASE tell us as well.
4) Sign-up starts TODAY (December 1st) and will be CLOSED on December 7th 23:59 EST. You MUST reply to our DM to confirm your participation by December 8th, 6:00am EST, or else you won't be added to the participants list.
5) On December 8th, you will be messaged the name of your secret buddy. They must be unaware that you are their Thneedmas Exchange partner until after the period of posting (December 23rd - January 5th) or longer depending on issues with post limit.
6) If you sign up after the cutoff date, your url will be put on a waiting list for the next exchange. There will be no room for late sign-ups.
7) Gifts can be fanart, fanfiction, fan video, etc. If you have any other ideas for your gift, feel free to get creative. Also, please try to keep them related to The Lorax unless you know your buddy would appreciate something non-Lorax related more (like if they have an OC, for example). If your gift is very obviously low-effort/insincere/trolling, you will be banned from future gift exchanges.
8) If you have had drama in the past with another tumblr user, please let us know ahead of time so we can make certain that neither of you are assigned to each other.
9) Buddies will be assigned by the mods, and you will be buddied up randomly. If you don’t receive a buddy after the sign-up period is over, then MESSAGE US IMMEDIATELY! DON’T WAIT UNTIL THE DAY BEFORE THE EXCHANGE OR THE LAST DAY OF THE EXCHANGE OR 2 DAYS AFTER THE EXCHANGE.
10) If you have not received your gift in time, you MAY make a request for a makeup one created by one of the mods or makeup gift volunteers; this offer is only valid if you’ve come through with your own partner’s gift, it’s only fair.
Thank you for reading!
Some Grinch sketches to welcome the festive season ✨. I watched the 2018 Grinch for the first time since 2021 and I weirdly don’t remember seeing it in 2021 at all. So it was kind of my first time watching it in a way. Me and my mom loved it! It’s so cute and silly and so undeserving of all the hate!! My mom thought the little Grinch was so adorable and I thought the Grinch emotional eating was such a mood so obviously I had to draw both those things.
Some little sketches of Anxiety from Inside Out 2 because she’s a goofy and adorable little bean who weirdly helps my anxiety? For one of these drawings I drew her surrounded by things that help my own anxiety.
I've very much been absolutely adoring pomegranates recently so I wanted to draw one. One, because they're such a pretty and unique fruit and two, because we had no pomegranate in the house for a couple weeks and I was really craving it so I thought I could draw it and like eat it with my eyes. Since that little bakery drawing I have discovered I love to draw food; it feels so cozy and wholesome.
Basic Anna sketch (and by sketch I mean this took me like an hour and four layers). Gonna be honest and say I don’t know what my drawing style is anymore. Also I finally saw Frozen 2 last night so yay :D!!
Anybody who plays the Sims 4 has probably seen the super adorable Flower Bunny who is the Sim’s version of the Easter Bunny. I’m obsessed with bunnies so I used the flower bunny suit/costume to create a family of bunny sims. They brought me so much joy and I love them so much so I drew them!
Jackie was the first bunny I made, she runs a bakery, loves cooking and loves metal music because she’s secretly a total badass. Charlie is her boyfriend and he loves reading, writing and is kind and nerdy. Petunia loves animals and nature and I imagine is quiet and sensitive. Delilah is her girlfriend and she is loud, extraverted, funny and loves all things creative.
You know that one (potentially kinda odd) childhood crush you had on a character or actor that just never really went away for some reason? Cus mine’s the young Once-ler from the Lorax movie 💀💀💀 and I always thought I was just weird but then I found out HE HAD A FANDOM??? And there were more dorks like me?!? I was so happy 😅🫶🖤
I rewatched this movie again recently for the first time in probably like five years?? and I’ve been obsessed with it. It’s so cute and goofy and colorful. Soooo here is my Lorax/Once-ler art 🫶🧡🖤 I tried my best to copy the animation style of the movie instead of drawing them in my original art style, but I’ll probably draw him again in my own style cus I love this goofy bean and it appears the people of Tumblr do as well 🖤
I drew this for my grandma. Recently I've been thinking about her even more than I always already am and her birthday is this month. And also just because I love her very much. <3
I wanted this artwork to feel comforting and dainty as well as gentle and kind, much like my memories of my grandma. It was important for me to include lots of flowers but esspecially pink roses. They were her favourites and she had a garden full of them. She would talk about the dragonflies in her garden and once sent me and my mom dragonflies made of ribbons (she loved making crafts and sewing <3) so I included dragonflies. She absoluetly adored snowflakes and loved rabbits too. I included a small rat as years ago she had a lovely pet rat named Rosy, and some planets because she once sent my mom a book about space. I included a deer and an angle as angles are angelic and pure, and I think of deers as gentle and dainty innocent creatures. I meant for the drawing to be more pastel colors but it turned out looking kind of Lisa Frank but that's okay. I really hope my grandma would love this drawing. <333
Thank you so so very much Vint for letting me draw your beautiful boy!! 🧡💚I absolutely adore your Scott and it was so much fun to draw him!! :3 💕💕Lowkey cured my art block too haha! Thank you so much!! 🫶(Also just want to say how much I adore your art style! :3 <33)
Hiiii Scott!! I finished drawing you :3💕 I really hope I did you justice and that you like it! x3 It was an honor to draw you and so much fun!! xD🧡

“I am what I am cause you trained me” 🥀. I just realized I haven’t posted any Stranger Things art yet. I’ve been watching this show with my mom since season 2 came out. I was only 11 so in a way I feel like I’ve grown up with these characters and I think that’s pretty special! This show is also special to me because both me and my mom love it, so it’s sort of a mother-daughter bonding thing for us.
I also realized this is the second drawing I’ve done recently with lyrics from the “The Tortured Poet’s Department” album so that’s kinda cool. I love connecting songs to my favourite characters and have been really into that album recently so that’s probably why, haha. I thought “Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me?” was absolutely perfect for El. I’m sure if you’ve listened to the song and watched Stranger Things you’ll understand why ❤️🩹
I promised more Gravity Falls art so here it is 🫶💚. I drew Dipper and Mabel as young adults, they’re 19!
Dipper is mostly the same, I decided to draw him without a hat because I like the idea that he stopped being shy about his birthmark. Mabel I gave highlights, an industrial piercing and belly button piercing, tattoos and false lashes. I also imagine she crocheted the little patches on her pants herself. I think Mabel would be very creative and expressive with her appearance.
(19 She/her) 🖤🩶🤍💜 I’m a very silly, dorky young woman who draws stuff and hangs out in fandoms. 💚 Currently obsessed with/drawing lots of Wall-E, Gravity Falls and the Lorax Movie (Once-ler). My other fandoms include How To Train Your Dragon, The Office, Vampire Diaries, Heartstopper, Stranger Things, Coldplay, Taylor, F+TM, Lorde, Hozier and all things Disney Pixar. Sending love 🫶🖤💚 🏳️🌈(🇵🇸I stand with Palestine but have 0 money to donate, I'm sorry 🙏)
