About mamakopp
One day she bought a scroll saw, paint and wood....
I started out making toys for my two children and it has all accumulated from there! There is something so rewarding about making a lovely little wooden treasure that a child instantly recognizes as such. They tell stories with it and give that toy so much love and life! This is why I make these toys and will continue as long as I am able.

Lorilee Kopp
Owner
I live in the gorgeous Northwest with my wonderful husband and two growing boys. I dabble in many creative endeavors and I work-out like a mad woman.
Shop policies
I use poplar wood for most figures. It's much stronger than pine and can be found in a pure white form for painting. I prefer a one inch thickness for durability for toymaking. I also use a lot of walnut, spalted maple and osage orange wood that I acquired from green sustainable sources when I lived in Missouri.
My wood creme:
My wood creme is made of local organic beeswax, organic expeller pressed safflower oil, vitamin E as a perservative and a tiny bit of tea tree and lavender oil for a natural anitbacterial and for it's lovely scent.
The paint I use:
I use AP certified nontoxic watercolors for all my pieces.
Other things in the shop:
Sometimes I make small bags for the game sets. I use upcycled, often vintage fabrics that I find here and there at vintage stores. Sometimes I splurge and purchase cute fabrics from other etsy shops.
I also use a lot of wool felt and needle felted wool sculptures in my listings. I use high-quality Holland wool felt and high quality Merino wool for my needle felted pieces.
If you ever have any questions about how I make things or about any of the items in my shop, please do not hesitate to contact me and ask! I am always happy to hear from you.
