Why this wooden pumpkin makes a difference in everyday life

A Halloween pumpkin with hat brings an autumn mood into your home straight away. No mess, no pumpkin leftovers, no time pressure. Hang it in the window, place it on the table or make a whole pumpkin family with the children. The room instantly looks lovingly decorated. And because wood doesn't rot, you can simply bring it out again next year.

Material & finish

The pumpkin is laser-cut from 3 mm plywood. This gives it the typical brown edge that outlines the motif nicely. The edges are smooth and the finish is clean. It feels pleasant in the hand, even for children's hands when crafting. The wood is untreated, neither varnished nor glazed. So it reliably takes paint, glue and oil. Wood is a natural material and is never completely uniform. Different shades, fine structures in the grain and small knots are normal. They make every piece unique. Every cutout is made in Bütic's own production in Pößneck, Thuringia.

Good to know about the Halloween pumpkin

The custom of carving glowing faces at Halloween comes from Ireland. People there originally used turnips. Only in America did it become the pumpkin known as the “Jack O'Lantern”. The pumpkin with hat takes up this familiar autumn motif. The difference: you don't have to carve it, and you can use it again every year.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do. Store the untreated wooden pumpkin in a dry place and protect it from constant moisture. Then it keeps its natural look for a long time. If you paint, oil or varnish it, the surface is protected as well. Choose whatever suits your decorations.
