Description

These wooden animals were originally made as a christmas present for little Miss Carrott.
They became so popular that I now make them to order and sell them at my exhibitions.
The Wacky Woodies are my best way to use all the ridiculously tiny off-cuts that I kept for years. You will find oak, cherry, maple, lacewood (London Plane), yew, sapele, ash, walnut, olive ash, mahogany, utile, cedar, beech, willow, eucalyptus, spalted beech, iroko, bamboo, sycamore, pine, and (hu)man-made boards, such as chipboard, plywood, and M.D.F.
I realised that people wanted them not only for their children or grandchildren but for themselves too, as a decorative item. So, for young children and for old kids.
They are superbly finished and I use children friendly natural oils.

 

These Wacky toys, sometimes more for grown-ups than for children, are very unique. Having said this, if you see one you like and that’s the one you want to rescue, then clearly there is nothing I can do apart from following the same design and idea. You’ll get to have it. It will look slightly different as wood doesn’t come in cans, so the grain patterns will unavoidably be somewhat different. But it will be with you at your home shortly.

Wacky commissions! If you want a little animal that actually looks like an animal you know, please ask. I have been sent pictures of dogs, cats, rats, pigs, owls, more dogs and a dog. I can take the main features from here and divert it into a Wacky idea. A bit like a cartoonist in Paris making fun of your big nose.

They can be either a stand alone Wacky Woody, one for a height chart or one in a picture frame, on a mirror…
