Mr. Martin, Just want to tell you that the Kitchen setfor my granddaughter, Terra, arrived about one hour after I arrived there. Perfect timing! Terra is 26 months old and she absolutely LOVES her "new kitchen set" as she calls it. Her parents and I are quite impressed with it and it is truly a beautfiul piece of furniture. Terra cooked us all meals during the time I was there, as well as feeding her stuffed animals. She used her pot holder to get the "hot" dishes out of the oven and made sure they cooled off before serving. She also made sure she washed the pots/pans in the sink. You did a wonderful job making it and the kitchen set was well worth the price - in fact, my daughter and I were amazed you could make a profit. Now,the hutch is on our "wish list." I got back in town yesterday and my daughter just sent me an emaill that Terra is still in love with it. I am sure she will continue to use it. thanks again, Judy ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hi Joe,
I wanted to thank you for sending Ivy's Kitchen (and supplies) to us in time for my daughter's birthday. I think it arrived within a couple days of you mailing it, in fact! It is beautiful and she loves it. She and her little friend were playing with it happily today and feeding me all the different things they had made. You are quite a craftsman. I look forward to doing business again in the future and I will make sure a refer my friends to your company.
Thank you again! Anna ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~These wooden toys are truly amazing and beautiful! thank you kindly! very pleased!~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thanks so much for the great deal! This wooden toy kitchen is AMAZING! My girls love it and haven't stopped cooking all week! I can't tell you how pleased I am with this. Thanks so much for shipping it quickly, it arrived in plenty of time. I had to hide it from my self b/c I could hardly wait to give it to her. It's susc a quality piece, so strong and sturdy, I know it will last for years! Is there anything special I can do to keep the wood looking great? What do you use that smells so wonderful? Thanks again! ~Shannon ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Wow! The Ivy Kitchen and Fridge are AMAZING!!!! They are even more wonderful in person. Thanks so much. I can't wait for Christmas and our daughter to be able to play with them (so I can too)!!! I'll be passing your website to everyone I know. Very impressive. Wood kitchens are so much for fun than the plastic sticker covered kitchens. My parents still have my wooden kitchen in Texas. I know our daughter will treasure her kitchen forever too. I can't wait to see our grandkids play with it. Thanks Joe. You do fabulous work. ```````````````````````````` I just wanted to thank you for my beautiful wooden kitchen. I love it! I'm sure the children I care for will have hours of fun playing in the house corner because of it. I am opening a family child care & preschool program with an earth friendly approach. I hope to order more things in the future. I will share the business cards you sent with the families that come to my program. Thank you for your hard work and dedication to high quality wooden toys. ~Melissa ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hi Joe, We just wanted to say thank you for delivering to our daughter a beautiful, truly beautiful, wooden stove and refridgerator at a price we could afford. Stella has been very busy preparing a meal and clanging pots on the stove and washing dishes. We are so happy to see her enjoy her new "kitchen." We wish you the best in your future endeavors and will be checking your website periodically looking for a washer and dryer! Appreciatively, The Samaan Family
I just wanted to say that I am thrilled with the arrival of my daughter's wooden play kitchen. We decided to purchase the Dakota kitchen for our 19 month old. It is so lovingly made and smells divine that as soon as it came out of the box I knew that I had made the right decision to buy an heirloom quality piece rather than a plastic version. This is something that I hope will be cherished and passed on to other generations. I know that my daughter will have hours of fun playing and cooking up all kinds of imaginary treats. Thank you for dedicating yourself to excellence, I'm so glad that there are toy makers like you out there.:) ~Sincerely, Victoria ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Dear Joe, We came back from vacation to find the wooden toy kitchen already delivered- as if that was not pleasant enough (the prompt service), it was an absolute delight to open! It smells divine!!! It looks stunning!! We got the largest one, the willow play kitchen- and it is an absolute joy. The workmanship is superb, every little detail is well thought out and so well made-- both me and my 2 year old are in raptures over it. She is mesmerized and has not let it alone since I took it out of its box! I'm so glad we made the decision to buy this rather than the many others out there. Thank you for such a unique piece of art-toy which we will enjoy for decades, I'm sure. ~Sonia and Maya (2.2 years old and having a blast!) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Hello, I just wanted to say that our little wooden toy kitchen arrived today and it is just precious. It smells absolutely wonderful - what a nice touch! I know that our daughter will love it. I can see that you've put a lot of love into this little piece. Thank you for your work!"Sincerely, ~The Silvers ,VT
````````````````````````````````````` ~Absolutely perfect! The workmanship is unmatched! Beautiful and educational wooden toy!~ ``````````````````````````````````````````` Hello- just wanted to let you know that we got "Ivy's wooden kitchen" a few weeks ago for our little 2 year old (Georgia). When it arrived she said "oh my kitchen!" and "I love it!" over and over again. It smelled great and it looks wonderful. We've got it in our toy kitchen so she can cook when we cook. Thanks for sending the order when we specified. It arrived in perfect condition. We love it and your craftsmanship is beautiful. Sincerely, ~Betsy & Sandy , Chicago ````````````````````````````````````````````` Dear Willow Toy A very quick note. About a year an a half ago, I bought a wooden toy kitchen set ('Ivy's Kitchen,' or something close) and a wooden toy refrigerator from you for my then-turning-one-year-old son, he loved it the moment he saw it, and those pieces remain one of his favorite and most-used 'toys' to date. They are a solid hit with every child who enters our house (from one year old to five or six), are still in perfect condition (in spite of a couple of finger-paint hand prints) and are simply a wonderful part of his imagination-play (and he does a lot of it). I remain impressed by the quality of the pieces and the wealth of play this inspires. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I just had a friend ask if I had a suggestion of a wooden play kitchen for he almost-one year old. I passed on your name--as I will do from now until forever whenever anyone asks me for a kitchen recommendation. I will recommend your pieces above and beyond any others I have seen--or my son has played with. Just wanted to thank you again. *Really* fantastic pieces. Best, ~Sarah Culpepper Stroup Assistant Professor, Department of Classics
