About Us
Welcome to Kokomei Workshop!
Hello, and thank you for dropping by our shop! We're Arnold and Livvy, and we're excited to share our story with you.
Our journey began in Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands, where we both grew up surrounded by the rich tapestry of our cultures and traditions. This connection to our heritage was something we cherished deeply, and we knew that we wanted to pass down this love for our roots to our two beautiful children, Koko (our older son) Henry and Meimei (our younger daughter) Lucy. However, as we found ourselves thousands of miles away from our homelands, here in the heart of Washington, we faced a challenge.
How could we ensure that our children grew up with a strong sense of their cultural identity and a genuine appreciation for the traditions we held dear? It was this question that sparked the idea behind Kokomei Workshop.
Kokomei Workshop is more than just an online shop; it's a labor of love and a bridge to our heritage. We are proud to bring you a curated collection of unique hand-crafted wood toys and accessories designed especially for infants and young children. Each of our products reflects the care and craftsmanship we put into them, with an emphasis on quality and safety. Our goal is to create items that not only entertain and educate but also instill a sense of cultural pride and connection in your little ones.
In addition to our line of children's products, we have expanded into offering a range of modern household items that embody the same principles of craftsmanship, functionality, and beauty. These products are designed to enhance your daily life while adding a touch of elegance to your home.
At Kokomei Workshop, we believe that every family deserves access to high-quality, culturally inspired goods, no matter where they are in the world. We are committed to bringing you products that reflect our passion for our heritage and our dedication to ensuring that our children, and yours, can grow up with a strong sense of their roots.
Thank you for joining us on this journey. We invite you to explore our shop and discover the beauty and cultural richness that Kokomei Workshop has to offer. Your support means the world to us, and we look forward to being a part of your family's story.
With warm regards,
Arnold and Livvy Founders of Kokomei Workshop
