My Itty Bitty Animal Collection
Custom Orders
For generations, wooden toys have sparked children's imaginations and delighted families with their timeless appeal. Among the most cherished toys I have made are handcrafted animal cutouts, simple, sturdy, and full of character. Today, I’d like to share the story behind my Itty Bitty Animals and why these wooden treasures continue to bring joy to families decade after decade.
A Toy That Lasts Generations
My journey as a toymaker began over forty years ago, when I crafted my very first animal cutouts for my own children. To this day, my grandchildren still play with those original toys, a testament to the lasting quality and sentimental value of a well-made wooden toy. There’s something magical about passing down a beloved plaything through the generations, a tangible link between past and present.

Crafted With Care and Tradition
Each Itty Bitty Animal is made in my workshop with traditional woodworking tools and techniques, ensuring each piece is unique. I use high-quality wood offcuts from other projects, making each toy both eco-friendly and one-of-a-kind. The animals are sanded silky-smooth for little hands, with unfinished wood that’s perfect for painting, decorating, or displaying in its natural beauty.

More Than Just a Toy
While these elephants and other animals make charming decorations, they’re designed first and foremost for play. Their sturdy construction makes them ideal stacking toys that encourage open-ended, imaginative fun for children of all ages. And for families seeking something extra special, I happily accept custom orders, whether it’s a different animal, a specific size, or even a unique design from your own drawing.

A Personal Touch in Every Piece
Because I use natural wood and handmade techniques, each animal varies slightly in grain, color, and character. These differences aren’t flaws, they’re what make every toy unique! If you’d like a particular wood type or look, just let me know; I’m always eager to accommodate special requests and help create the perfect piece for your family.
