Creators
We want to be both designers who can invent toys, and craftsmen who can bring them to life. The staff at Comomg are professional craftsmen who specialize in making wooden toys. At Comomg, we are passionate about our work and take great pride in our craft with hopes of sharing that same excitement with those who hold our products in their hands.
