Sponsors and Curators
The Museum of Yo-Yo History is a labor of love, and we would not be able to stay up-to-date with exhibits without the support of our sponsors and curators. Big thanks go to One Drop Design and Duncan for supplying us with their latest models, YoYoExpert for their help and support, and to Cody Orr, TotalArtist and YoYoBrothers™ for allowing us to use their collections!
If you're a manufacturer, or just a big collector and you want to help support the Museum drop me at line at chimera@yoyomuseum.com

Once Upon a Tree is a Houston-based creator of high-quality wooden yo-yos. They handcraft their bandalores in small batches, one at a time. The result is a nicely balanced yo-yo that is very enjoyable to play.
This fixed axle model is the "Just For Fun" yo-yo, YO-nut edition. It has chocolate "frosting" and colored "sprinkles". Besides brown, it was also available in white, green, and pink "frosting with sprinkles". The Simpson-ized paint job makes the yo-yo look like a donut from the side. I believe five of each color were made in 2016. It was re-made and re-released in April, 2017.
The yo-yo came nestled in a large paper cupcake holder which was then sealed inside a crafty-looking polybag to maintain freshness well past its expiration date. A clever, eye-catching yo-yo design that is also functional.
Collected January 13, 2016.
Once Upon a Tree has not updated their Facebook page since July 2018. They are likely no longer in business.
