Halloween pumpkin V4 in wood – plywood cutout 5–50 cm

The windows are decorated. The children have their brushes and paints ready. Only one thing is missing: a design that really looks like Halloween. This wooden pumpkin with an inner cutout is made for your craft afternoon. It has a clear silhouette that you can paint, decorate or simply hang up as it is. In a short time, a plain cutout becomes your own Halloween decoration.

What changes for you

• You can start decorating straight away instead of sawing it out first. The pumpkin arrives laser-cut and ready, with smooth edges.
• Your decoration fits exactly where you want it, from a small hanging tag to a large shop window piece. You can choose any width from 5 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• You can decorate it just the way you like, with paint, decoupage or oil. The wood is untreated and takes any finish well.
• Crafting with children stays relaxed. The laser-cut edges are smooth. Nobody has to sand or touch anything up.
• Thanks to the inner cutout, you get a recognisable pumpkin face before you even pick up a brush. The design works unpainted too.

Why this pumpkin cutout makes a difference

Halloween decorations work best with shapes people recognise. This silhouette gives you exactly that. Whether on the window, the door or the laid table, the pumpkin sets the right tone straight away. It takes very little effort. And because you decorate it yourself, your decoration shows your own style rather than something off the shop shelf.

Material & finish

The pumpkin is laser-cut from 3 mm plywood in our own production in Pößneck. Laser cutting leaves the typical brown edge. It frames the design and gives it a clear outline. The wood is untreated, so it is neither varnished nor glazed. You can paint, decorate, coat or oil it directly. As a natural material, each piece has its own grain, small knots and variations in shade. This is not a flaw. It is what makes every cutout one of a kind.

How to use the pumpkin cutout

• On an autumn craft afternoon: every child paints their own pumpkin. By the evening, a whole row of little works of art is hanging in the window.
• For a Halloween party: combine several sizes on the door and wall. Your guests can tell as soon as they arrive that something special is happening.
• On the table: a small pumpkin at each place as a name card or party favour. The table looks lovingly prepared with very little effort.
• In a café, bakery or shop: large cutouts up to 50 cm in the window or on the counter. Seasonal decoration that goes up quickly and can be redecorated every year.
• In nurseries, schools or craft groups: the sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 pieces give everyone the same design. You save preparation time, and every result still turns out different.

Good to know about pumpkins

The glowing pumpkin goes back to the Irish legend of Jack O’Lantern. In Ireland, people originally carved turnips. Only in America did the pumpkin become the symbol of Halloween. The silhouette with its inner cutout picks up exactly this imagery. Your design is recognisable as a Halloween symbol at first glance – on the front door, in the classroom or in the shop window.

Care & durability

There isn’t much you need to do. As the wood is untreated, it is best kept indoors in a dry place. Avoid constant damp and wet. Or protect the pumpkin with paint, varnish or oil before use. That way your decoration will last for many Halloween seasons.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint or decorate the pumpkin? Yes. The plywood is untreated and can be painted, decorated, coated or oiled. Paint sticks directly to the natural surface.

Is the cutout suitable for outdoor use? The wood is untreated and should be protected from constant damp. For outdoor use, we recommend a protective coat or a sheltered spot.

Why are the edges brown? The brown edge is created during laser cutting and is typical of this cutting method. It also gives you smooth edges with no finishing needed.

Do all cutouts look the same? The shape is identical, but the wood is not. As a natural material, each piece has its own grain, variations in shade and sometimes small knots. This makes every pumpkin one of a kind.

A plywood cutout is only the start. The best part is the moment your hand-painted pumpkins hang in the window and your home looks like autumn and anticipation. Simply choose your size, singly or as a set, and get started.
