Announcement Toying Around is open and shipping orders Monday- Friday!
This wooden toy shop was created by me to fulfill your child's learning and adult DIY type creativity. For fast shipping, I stock thousands of my natural unfinished wooden where in most cases I can ship your order that day or the very next. I use a certified non-toxic acrylic paint and a non-toxic protective topcoat sealer for any wooden pieces that I paint. Natural and chemical-free are extremely important to me and that's why none of my wood products have been treated with such. Buying in larger bulk quantities? Contact me about bulk quantity discounts prices on all my items.

If you are like me and love Pinterest or you are a crafty DIY type of person, all my wooden pieces come unfinished for your creative projects and inspiration. My wooden pieces are good for so many fun ideas, wedding decor, home decor, kid crafts, scrapbooking, jewelry making and so much more.

On Etsy since 2011

I strive for excellent customer service that’s why each order is packaged and shipped with care.
My dad, hubby & mom all helped me build my new business building in 2021. My workplace is only steps away from my home.
All my wooden pieces are labeled, organized and ready to be shipped. This is part of my shipping area.
This is my happy place. I’m sanding some wooden pieces in this picture.
There are days after painting where I leave my house and end up having a friend point out I have paint on my face-opps!

All things wood for the DIY inspired crafter

Hello,
In 2009 I discovered that I possessed a hidden talent and love for painting. I decided to opened my HobKnobin.etsy.com. I had such great success I decided to open up my second Etsy shop called Toying Around. My children couldn't be happier seeing and playing with my new wooden toys, activities and games. This also allows me to see if my ideas are kid friendly, entertaining and if they are durable enough to handle the rough play from my little ones.

Thank you for taking the time to look through my portfolio.
