On the collect...

Here we are 'on the collect'....rainy day here and managed to collect a great load of timber and awesome pot-belly stove complete with flu...plus a great score of a dump tractor for the young fella which he absolutely loves --- a few moments fixing the front wheel, putting a steering wheel on and a new lever knob and away he went...our delight.


Post Christmas....






busy quiet Christmas...managed to create a little but not alot...the rains came and our environment is once again nourished...new life, new growth and the sounds of frogs, birds and insects looking for mates. It's a wonderful time. The recycle depot is open again and plenty of good stuff finding its way into the Tiny Sherwood creating department!! Also lots of give away timber and other bibs and bobs finding their way down there as well...any lonely pieces of timber, wheels, blocks, charismatic pieces looking for a home you are welcome here!!






Here is the latest creation...hope you like it...blessings to you all...

What we do at The Tiny Sherwood Design Company..







Tiny Sherwood was born in response to mass production and consumption. The philosophy is simple: We aim to make quirky and creative toys for kids from recycled, reclaimed and reused material..all the stuff that gets chucked away we want to use to bring delight to children and adults alike. Here are some designs...





























my precious boy..3 and a half going on 40! What is it with 3 year olds? They can bring such delight into your life and such frustration as they push the boundaries discovering their own sense of self and what they can do.

by design

it is only by design that we can truly move forward...life by design, live by design, dream by design, scream by design...i saw a flower today and in a moment of wonder it has become a design for a vehicle that will carry a child into joy...blessings to that...
