Where did we get our name?

Customers often ask how we came to be "blinking toad." A few years ago, I stumbled across a poem by late nineteenth century naturalist John Burroughs called The Song of the Toad. Reading "Have you heard the blinking toad sing his solo by the river" took me back to the warm nights of my childhood, where we slept with open windows and the song of the toad as our lullaby. In that moment we became blinking toad workshop. It seemed a fitting name for our venture, a reminder to appreciate and enjoy life's simple pleasures.
