Toys from trees

The Woodlot is the company name used by a family that lives in Ontario. They make things from the wood they find on walks in their 125-acre property. And because they are such huge fans of the forest, they strive to let the beauty of the wood itself be the focus of their products. I especially love their toy cars, which are simply a half-round (or thereabouts) of a log. You can count the rings! 

All of their items are finished with a natural beeswax polish. And get this, these cars are a mere $10 each.

They also sell wooden money — Canadian, of course.
