Wooden hexagon, yellow – birch plywood cutout, 3–50 cm

You're planning a honeycomb wall in the nursery, a sunny name sign for the front door or decorations for the spring table. And you still need the right basic shape. This hexagon is made of 3 mm birch plywood and painted yellow on both sides. It's made for your next DIY project. Simply choose a width from 3 to 50 cm. The hexagon cutout arrives fully painted and ready to use.

What changes for you

• You can start creating straight away, with no sanding or painting. Every hexagon arrives painted on both sides.
• Your honeycomb patterns and collages fit together neatly. That's thanks to smooth, laser-cut edges and precise sizing.
• You'll find the right size for every project. You can choose any width from 3 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• The front and back are finished the same way, so you can use both sides. For example, as a hanging tag or for a mobile.
• For bigger projects, you quickly get the number you need. The hexagon is available singly or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100.

Why this wooden hexagon makes a difference every day

Ready-cut and painted shapes take care of the tedious part. That leaves you time for the fun part: creating. Instead of sawing at the kitchen table and waiting for paint to dry, you lay out the hexagons, try out patterns and hang them up. In a single afternoon, an idea becomes something you can see. On the wall, in the window or on the laid table.

Material & finish

The hexagon is laser-cut from 3 mm birch plywood. This gives smooth edges and a clean finish that won't get in your way while crafting. At Bütic, we paint the raw boards on both sides ourselves in our own production in Pößneck. On top is a clear, satin-finish water-based lacquer. It lets the wood grain and small knots show through. Wood is a purely natural material. It can be lighter or darker and shows different textures. That makes every piece unique. It isn't a flaw, it's character.

How to use the hexagon

• In the nursery: stick several hexagons to the wall in a honeycomb pattern. A blank wall becomes a yellow honeycomb.
• Crafting with children: each child paints or decorates their own hexagon. At the end, you have a colourful garland of one-of-a-kind pieces.
• For spring and Easter decorations: scatter a few small hexagons on the table or hang them from a branch. The room instantly looks brighter.
• For lettering: make name signs, door signs or place cards on the smooth surface. The satin-finish lacquer is easy to write on and stick things to.
• In shops, cafés or at the weekly market: larger hexagons work as price tags or seasonal decorations in the display. They're quick to set up, labelled consistently and reusable as often as you like.

Good to know about the hexagon

The hexagon is one of the few shapes that fit together without gaps. Nature has always used this in the honeycomb. That's exactly why the hexagon works so well for wall patterns and collages. You can start with just a few pieces and extend the pattern piece by piece at any time.

Care & durability

There's not much to do. An occasional wipe with a dry or slightly damp cloth is enough. Avoid prolonged wetness, as wood is a natural material. That way, the colour and surface will look good for a long time.

Frequently asked questions

How tall is the hexagon at a given width? The height follows from the hexagon shape. At a width of 10 cm, it's approx. 8.7 cm. Other widths follow the same ratio.

Is the hexagon painted on both sides? Yes. Both sides are painted yellow and also sealed with a clear, satin-finish water-based lacquer. Ideal for hanging tags and mobiles that are seen from both sides.

Why does each piece look slightly different? Birch plywood is a natural material. Grain, lightness and small knots vary from board to board. The clear lacquer deliberately lets these textures show through. Every hexagon is unique.

Can I order larger quantities? Yes. As well as single pieces, there are sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100. Handy for wall patterns, garlands or craft sessions with several people.

What counts is the moment you step back and see your finished honeycomb pattern on the wall for the first time. Simply choose the width and quantity – and get started.
