The Toymakers Collection by Terrie & Richard Floyd

Vertical Divider
Terrie and Richard Floyd have been making beautiful toys together since 1968. They have combined their painting, designing and woodworking talents into a successful business. Their work has been featured in numerous publications, galleries, museums and specialty stores throughout the world. They have licensed designs since 1986 to several major companies including Silvestri and Kurt S. Adler (Santa's World).

The Floyd's Handmade in America Wooden toys and clocks are a blend of traditional folk art with contemporary overtones. Richard takes pride in using only the highest quality materials when building these pieces. Terrie spends hours making sure each original piece of art will delight the imagination of all age groups.

​Terrie and Richard have two children, Molly and Daniel, who have provided inspiration for many of their designs over the years. In the past five years, their family had grown to include their son-in-law, Joe, and granddaughter, Helena Rose, who is the Toymaker's biggest fan!

The clock toy-making process of Terrie and Richard Floyd begins with Terrie painting her original design on paper or wood. Next the image is scanned and printed, using a lithographic or laser process. The print is laminated on high quality Baltic Birch plywood. Holes for the pivot and pull strings are drilled in their proper places. Richard then cuts out the parts on a band saw. The pieces are sanded to remove any splinters that may be present. The Jumping Jack is assembled using wood pegs or screws for the pivots, and silk cord for the pull strings. The piece is tested to make sure that it is articulated properly.

Jumping Jacks are Folk Toys, whose origins date back hundreds of years. Known as "Hampelmann" in Germany, and "Le' Pantin" in France, they still hold a fascination for children and collectors alike. The Floyds have been combining their painting, designing, and woodworking talents since 1967. Their work has been exhibited at fine Art and Craft shows throughout the western U.S. under the name "Toymakers". 

Over the years, many people have made a family tradition of collecting and giving the "Toymakers" Jumping Jack Puppets. Because of their whimsical nature, they are as endearing to adults as they are to children. Jumping Jacks make wonderful gifts for any occasion. These "Classic Action Figures" connect with that special child within us all.

This high quality edition of the Floyds art is limited to various quantities, after which they are retired and new designs are introduced. They are hand-crafted of the finest materials available and are constructed to be strong, durable, and to withstand normal play of children FOUR YEARS AND OLDER.

Terrie and Richard's clocks making process uses the same process for the image. They are cut from 1/4" MDF (a recycled wood product). The quartz movements are Made in the USA and are guaranteed for 10 years. The power source is 1 AA battery.

All of Laughing Moon’s products are made in America in their Studio / Workshop.
