25.01.2022 Hi everyone Just letting you know we are now in a less prickly situation! Eventho we still have Level 4 restrictions and 5km movement limit, we are allowed to work again in our sawdusty woodworkshop. The situation now is that we are going to work on existing orders that are now a tat late! More updates later..... In the meantime I have a newbatch of the loveliest and sweet Pocket Babies for sale. Photos in the next post. Hoping you are all getting some lovely Christmas celebration ideas lined up to create a special family time again, I am sure you miss the social and family connections as much as we do. Memory making can be wonderful.

25.01.2022 this train was personalised by engraving the child's name on the blocks Sorry, no new orders taken, so no pricetag on it for now.

24.01.2022 No wonder the glue in the workshop is not glueing!

24.01.2022 Most people have flowers in their vases...not me!! I have halve-finished wooden swords in mine Wim is working on these for the wishlist customers. If you are on the list....I will contact you when they are ready for name engravings.. By the way this is not even all of them. Please know we are not taking more orders for these as we simply cannot add more work in before finishing up this month.

23.01.2022 The Trout lover's birthday is nearly here! That wineglass is simply too small Allira

22.01.2022 3... 2....1........ GO!!!

19.01.2022 this train was personalised by engraving the childs name on the blocks Sorry, no new orders taken, so no pricetag on it for now.

19.01.2022 A few days left before we shut down the workshop..these are a couple of the batches of the wishlists that I am working on. Not one crayonholder the same! And each sword unique in timber colour, leather colour and the child's names are wonderful to top it off with.. P.S. All these have been adopted and there's no more leftover.

18.01.2022 What a battle it was! All the custom orders together looks good. These have new homes already. Keep following this page so you can see them come up for sale if we have made extras down the track.

16.01.2022 these Australian Natives will be holding the serviets at the dinner table in Silke's house

14.01.2022 Hi everyone Just a quick update! We are still working on the existing *pre-covid lockup* orders but now Wim is getting the preparations done for the items requested that I had pencilled in. ... At the moment the large play pegs are in the finishing and oiling process. Then the birthday rings were started today. Not sure just yet if there's spares. Stay tuned here! Some other wood shavings gossip from the workshop was about the letters and numbers that were pencilled (used in the birthday ring celebrations and ceremonies) Messages to the customers who requested these will be send when in the finishing and oiling stage. We had a few rainbow shaped arches on order and some were pencilled in. I wouldn't be surprised if there's more coming that haven't got a name attached to them just yet. Follow us here for a Sale! That's all for now..thank you for your patience, support and understanding. Kind regards Heidy Photo is not mine just for a giggle! Seriously it is tourism in GB..

13.01.2022 A busy barn today! So sweet to see how children play, so absorbed in their imagination. No orders taken at the moment, so no pricetag inquiries please.

10.01.2022 Like in the photo of my twins... I WANT...I WANT...I WANT. Pocket Babies are back again..... The busiest time to get ready! Christmas gifts are on the horizon. What about these sweet ones as a little cuddly pocket size friend? They are made with super soft cotton velour and wool stuffing and hats. Soft faces to make you feel loved. Endless play fun and children feel safe and secure having them close. 10cm from hat to toe and they are partly filled in their bodies which ensures the best cuddles and sensory touch. The quality is more than excellent! I wouldn't want it any other way. They are $24.5ea or $24 for 4 or more. Postage is $11 for any amount. Please comment SOLD under the picture. Prompt payment appreciated via DD or PP+fees. I am happy to take more photos of the ones you like to see them together.
