Light your fire
And never fear,
Life was made
For love and cheer.

Warmest Greetings from the Toymaker’s Workshop!

The polar bears have been very busy here this month. They have been working to the wee hours making toys. There are new toys for Christmas, new toys for Kwanzaa, and they are currently working on a new menorah.


I have just six pages left of a new children’s book that I’ve been working on and I am so excited to get it wrapped up and off to the printer. More details in the next newsletter… for now I’ll leave a little mystery as to its contents.
.. but am I excited? You betcha!


There are a few new Christmas toys on www.thetoymaker.com
There are some little red bird decorations and an angel card. There is also a retablo, a little house with an angel inside it. I hope you enjoy them!

It is my wish for you that you find a few moments of calm and peace somewhere in this month that seem to whoosh by with whirlwinds of activity. Make a little toy or whatnot and give it to someone that isn’t expecting it. Say thank you to someone who is harried. Enjoy being with the people that you love.
All my best thoughts!
