Hi! I’m Fernanda. I started this business as a little project during one of the Victoria lockdowns after I found myself with plenty of free time, as I’m sure most of us did, so I started to create small woodwork projects from wood offcuts, this developed into making them as gifts for family and friends and people loved them! So I followed a hunch and started my own small business. This has always been a dream of mine as designing toys is my biggest passion and I love creating products that make kids happy and that they can relate with.
I provide products that encourage open-ended play as well as being a cool crafty activity that allows kids to be part of the creation process of their own toy which they can then play for hours and use their creativity and imagination to create stories and adventures. I’m proud to say that each product is unique as I handmake all of them.
While kids may seem to be the only ones who can enjoy these products, let me assure you that if you are an adult you can also find some joy in customising these and having a stress-free activity.
I want to inspire everyone to be more creative and hands-on with their cute wooden companions and make it their own, so you can express yourselves through your creations. With this, I want to create a community that wants to rediscover play and that is part of the Bot Workshop World.
I hope Bot Workshop can become a source of joy, creativity, and friendship even in difficult times.
