✨ Under Construction ✨

I am building a new website - this might take a while because I rather spend my time drawing then writing about me :)

In the meantime — if you want to see my portfolio or you have an exciting project in mind already, please send me an email to hello@sonjaschaller.at.

Handmade Toys

Besondere Holztiere

Karo and I have been making our little wooden animals since 2019 and the collection gets bigger and bigger with every passing year. In 2024 we made our 100th animal design (a ✨ unicorn ✨ and her friend the 🔥 dragon🔥).

This project brings me so much joy every day that I work on it and we’re still coming up with new and exciting ideas. Visit the online shop to purchase a new little friend or follow @besondereholztiere for updates and news.
