History of Winterwood Steiner Inspired Toys and Craft Supplies
I am a parent of 2 children who attend the Melbourne Rudolf Steiner
School and have been involved in the Steiner / Waldorf craft
community for over 20 years. My specialty has become hand dyeing 100% Pure New Wool Felt, muslin play cloths, fleece for dry felting and distributing doll / craft making supplies. I established the business in 1998. In 2000 I released a catalogue to meet the growing need for Steiner / Waldorf craft supplies in Australia. In May of 2001, I opened a shop with a workroom in Ringwood, Victoria as I had outgrown our garden shed. July of 2003 we bought a lovely old weather board home in an established garden setting and moved the shop and workroom back into the family fold. My husband built me a beautiful new studio (out of an old garage) with views
from the studio windows of our rambling cottage garden. I have worked there for 3 years and we have out grown that space. We have
now moved into a retail shop in Park Orchards and been here for
three years.
 In
2007 I went on a 3 week trip to the U.K. and the Netherlands. Part of my trip in the Netherlands was to organise becoming the distributor for a company called
"De Witte Engel" or The White Angel, for their complete range please see the website White Angel (De Witte Engel), Holland We are able to supply you with all of the items listed on this website or we can send you a full coloured catalogue for $20.00.
