Why this wooden car makes a difference day to day

A blank that already has its shape takes care of the hardest part for you. You don't need to draw or saw anything. You can focus entirely on decorating. So making a wooden car becomes a relaxed afternoon rather than a woodworking project. And in the end, there's a piece on the shelf that really comes from you – not off the shelf.

Material & finish

The car is made of 3 mm plywood and is laser-cut. That's why it has the typical brown rim along the edges. This gives the shape a clear outline. The cut edges are smooth, so you can work with it safely. Wood is a natural material, so every piece turns out a little different. Some are lighter, some darker, each with its own grain and sometimes small knots. This isn't a flaw. It makes every car one of a kind.

How to use the wooden car

• At a children's party: every child paints their own wooden car. At the end, they take home a keepsake they designed themselves.
• For a birth or christening: add a name, and the little car becomes a personal gift. It will remind everyone of the celebration for a long time.
• As table scatter on the birthday table: spread several small cars between the plates. The table shows the party theme before the cake even arrives.
• At nursery or in a craft group: with a set of 25 or 50 pieces, everyone has the same shape in front of them. No cutting, no preparation.
• In a shop window or at the counter: painted in your own colours, the car silhouette presents a theme quickly and neatly. It works for travel, mobility or a children's event.

Good to know about the wooden car

During laser cutting, the cut edge burns slightly. This creates the characteristic brown rim. For you, this has a useful side effect. The dark outline frames the shape by itself. Painted areas look finished and neat, even without drawing the outlines.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do. Unfinished plywood likes to stay dry. Keep it away from constant moisture, and it will hold its shape for a long time. If you paint or oil it, the surface also gets an even, sealed finish.

• Available singly or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100
• Made for you in the size you ordered after purchase – returns are therefore not possible

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint or decorate the wooden car? Yes. The wood is unfinished and in its natural state. You can paint it, oil it, stick things on it or decorate it however you like.

Why do the cars look slightly different? Wood is a natural material. Shade, grain and small knots vary from piece to piece. That's exactly what makes every car unique.

What is the brown rim on the edges? It is created during laser cutting and is part of the product. The edges are smooth and don't need any finishing.

Can I return the item? No. Every car is made in your chosen size after you order. It is therefore excluded from exchange.

The best part isn't the piece of plywood. It's the moment your hand-painted car sits on the shelf and someone asks: “You made that?” Just choose your size – single or as a set – and get started.
