A handmade, handpainted pair of farm kids dressed in blue with their yellow straw hats. These resemble the Little Ditch Boy & Girl pattern found on many handmade quilts.

These are more than 20 years old and have been in storage unused. I made them in the late 80s to early 90s. I am not sure of the date since I never bothered to mark them. Some show a bit of wear from being stored loose in a box. Other than that, they look pretty much the same as when I put them away.

What can we do with these little people?

You can do pretty much the same things as you would use peg people. Home decoration comes to mind. We have some of these in a shadow box in our home. They would be good as toys for children older than three. Maybe, the perfect cake topper. On the right cake, these would look great.

You could easily convert these into Christmas tree ornaments by drilling a small hole in the top and gluing in a wire loop for a hanger.

Approximate Size:
Height: 2.5-inch
Width: 1-inch
Thick: 0.75-inch

Other sizes and colors may be available via custom orders.

I make items by hand from natural wood and wood products. They can differ from one piece to the next. The one you receive may differ from the item in the listing photos. Wood thickness may vary slightly from the stated size.

Not for children under three years old or kids still chewing things. If the toy breaks, small parts may present a choking hazard. Small children should not play with this toy without adult supervision.

Custom orders are always welcome in my shop. Don't hesitate to get in touch with me with your needs.

Toymakers Shop Glue Up Quick & Easy 5 Truck Fleet Custom Order

Toymakers Shop Glue Up Quick & Easy 5 Truck Fleet Custom Order

I'm building a custom truck order. The trucks are designed to cut from 2x stock. I could easily cut these from a 2x4 if I could get them with square corners. Unfortunately, all they sell in my area have rounded corners, so I lose 1/8-inch off of each size, making them too small. I looked for a 2x6 with suitable wood, but I could not find one without digging through a massive pile of lumber. I was unwilling to do that, so I cut up a 1x12 and glued up the Propper size blocks. I got lucky and managed to get six blocks out of a 4-foot length of 1x12. The few knots were in waste areas and did not matter.

All of the cutting was done with a 12-inch compound miter saw. Using a miter saw is not the most accurate way to cut these, but in this case, it is much easier because the miter saw is sitting on my workbench. Accuracy is not very important here.

There are 45 clamps used in this glue-up. If the board were not flat, I would have used more clamps.

Gluing up blocks adds a day to the build because I need to wait until the glue is cured before cutting, drilling, or sanding.

I sand the wood with 80-grit sandpaper before gluing to remove any marks and prep the surface to get the best glue bond.
