About The Whittling Toad

The Whittling Toad

wood carvings inspired by nature

Hello! For those who don’t know me, my name is Ren and my best friend is my crazy deerhound lurcher, Simba. I’ve been posting my journey of learning how to whittle since October. I’ve always loved making art but only started learning to whittle in October 2023 when my Mum gifted me my first carving knife.

I used to be a touring musician, and an illustration artist. But my health got really bad a couple of years ago and it meant I couldn’t play gigs anymore. I spent so much time working on my illustrations whilst in hospital for most of 2023 that the thought of sitting by myself drawing for another second made me want to stomp around the house screaming at the walls. So I thought I should learn how to do something new. I decided that I wanted to learn how to whittle!

I love carving things for other people, so if you’d like me to make something specific for you then please feel free to give me a shout! ❤️

Buying from me

Everything in my shop is hand carved by myself. If you buy any of my carvings that are existing listings, these will be dispatched within 5-7 days. For custom orders please allow an extra week (I can only whittle things so fast!)

I’ll always do my best to ensure that your carvings arrive safely, but this often means using products such as bubble wrap which aren’t the most eco-friendly of materials. Please try to recycle as much of my packaging as possible (when possible) or reuse it too!

Returns Policy

You have 14 days, from receipt, to notify the seller if you wish to cancel your order or exchange an item.

Please note: Unless faulty, the following types of items are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to your specific requirements; personal items sold with a hygiene seal (cosmetics, underwear) in instances where the seal is broken.
