Wooden astronaut V2 for crafts – plywood silhouette

You want to bring a bit of outer space into the children's room. The invitations for the themed party still need the right motif. And you're looking for something you can design yourself. This wooden astronaut is made for exactly that. It's a laser-cut astronaut silhouette made from plywood. You can paint it, stick things on it or simply hang it up as it is. A bare patch of wall or a plain card becomes a little piece of space travel.

What changes for you

• You design the motif just the way you like – because the wood is untreated and can be painted, oiled or decorated.
• Your crafting afternoon starts straight away, with no sawing or sanding – thanks to the ready-cut laser shape with smooth edges.
• You'll find the right size for every project, from a small card decoration to wall decor – because you can choose a width from 3 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• You can easily kit out larger groups such as children's birthday parties or craft groups – with sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100.
• You're holding a neatly finished piece of craftsmanship – made in Bütic's own production in Pößneck.

Why this wooden astronaut makes a difference in everyday life

Shop-bought decorations often look the same everywhere. A blank you design yourself shows your own style. Above the cot, as a tag on a present or as a motif on an invitation: the astronaut creates exactly the mood you have in mind. And because you choose the size freely, it fits into your project rather than the other way round.

Material & finish

The astronaut is laser-cut from 3 mm plywood. It has the typical brown edge, which gives the silhouette a clear, finely drawn outline. The edges are smooth. So you can pick up the figure and work on it straight away – even when crafting with children. The wood is untreated, neither varnished nor glazed. Paint, glue and oil adhere well, and you decide on the finish yourself. As a natural material, wood is never completely uniform. Different shades, fine grain patterns and small knots are part of it and make every piece one of a kind.

How to use the wooden astronaut

• Crafting with children: each child paints their own astronaut – and takes home a keepsake they designed themselves from the birthday party.
• In the children's room: combine several sizes on the wall or on a mobile – and a little space mission floats above the bed.
• For a space-themed party: use them as table decorations or string them up as a garland – and the theme is clear as soon as guests walk in.
• On invitations and presents: stick on a small silhouette – and a plain card becomes a space motif that stands out straight away.
• In a shop or studio: with the sets of 50 or 100, you can supply craft classes, nursery projects or window displays – without ordering each piece separately.

Good to know about astronauts

The word "astronaut" comes from Greek and roughly means "star sailor". It is made up of "astron" (star) and "nautes" (sailor). No wonder the motif delights children and adults alike. It suits themed parties, school projects about space and any children's room where dreaming is welcome.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do. Untreated plywood looks best when it stays dry, so avoid constant moisture. If you'd like to protect the surface or add colour, you can paint or oil the figure. That way you'll enjoy your decoration for a long time.

• Choose any width: 3 cm to 50 cm in 1 cm steps

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint or decorate the astronaut? Yes. The wood is untreated and natural. You can paint it, oil it and stick things on it.

How tall is the figure at a given width? As a reference: at a width of 10 cm, the height is 6.6 cm. The proportions stay the same for all sizes.

Why does the figure have a brown edge? The astronaut is laser-cut. The brown edge is typical of this process and also gives you smooth edges.

Does every figure look exactly the same? The shape does, the wood not quite. As a natural material, it shows different shades, fine textures and small knots. This isn't a flaw – it makes every piece unique.

A wooden cutout is only the beginning. What really counts is the moment your child proudly hangs their self-painted astronaut on the wall – and the children's room is suddenly a little closer to the stars. Just choose your size and quantity and get started.
