About Us

Hello there, greetings from Planet Peg. I am Hayley, Mum to two gorgeous boys and hundreds of little wooden peg people! In a previous life (before having children) I was a Primary School Teacher and Early Years Professional. I have a real passion for early education, inspiring imaginative play and sharing super cute wooden toys and decorations!

My little business started during lockdown when I got the bug for painting Peg Dolls, initially to enhance my own provision as a childminder. When lockdown finished and both my boys started school, I officially gave up Childminding and moved to Planet Peg full time, with the aim of turning my hobby into a little business...and here we are, still in awe of the incredible journey it's been!

All of my pegs are lovingly hand-painted, by just me, in my little shed in Staffordshire and I truly believe each has their own personality! No two are the same! They are all non-toxic and safe for play but can definitely be enjoyed by adults who like to smile too! You can find me at various markets and events throughout the year and in some lovely independent shops :)

I currently have a core range of cuteness that I try to keep stocked on the website and on sale throughout the year for my amazing collectors….I then release limited editions and seasonal designs on a first come, first serve kind of basis at markets and online. Custom slots will open and close throughout the year too! I do try to stay on top of the website but it’s sometimes a bit of a juggling act so be sure to sign up to the mailing list or follow me on Instagram for the latest news and exclusives!

More pegs, more creativity and more wooden loveliness coming your way. I’m super grateful to you all for following my journey this far and am looking forward to the future on Planet Peg xx
