Paint a bomb – plywood bomb cutout for crafts, 5–50 cm

The children's birthday party is coming up and the theme is set. Now you just need the decorations for the table and the play corner. This plywood bomb brings the well-known cartoon silhouette home as a blank. It is untreated, cleanly laser-cut and ready for paint, glue and glitter. It's made for your craft table. You decide whether to paint it, decorate it or simply stand it up as it is.

What changes for you

• You can get started straight away if you want to paint or decorate the bomb. The wood is untreated and takes paint, varnish and glue well.
• Your decoration fits your plans exactly, from small table scatter to a large single piece. You can choose any height from 5 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• You can craft with children without worry. The laser-cut edges are smooth and don't need sanding.
• You can kit out whole themed parties or group projects with no extra effort. Sets come with 10, 25, 50 or 100 pieces.
• Your motif is recognised instantly. The silhouette matches the classic cartoon bomb from animated films and games.

Why this wooden bomb makes a difference

Shop-bought decorations often look the same everywhere. A wooden cutout you design yourself shows your own style. It comes in your colours and suits your occasion. A simple piece of plywood becomes a detail that guests look at and ask about. And because you choose the size, the motif fits exactly where you need it.

Material & finish

The bomb is laser-cut from 3 mm plywood in Bütic's own production in Pößneck. Laser cutting gives smooth, clean edges with the typical brown rim. This is a feature of the cutting method and gives the motif a clear outline. The wood is untreated, so it is neither varnished nor stained. You can paint it, oil it, decorate it or leave it natural. Wood is a natural material and never completely uniform. Variations in shade, fine grain patterns and small knots are normal. They make each piece one of a kind and are not a defect.

How to use the wooden bomb

• At a children's birthday party: each child paints and decorates their own bomb. At the end, they take home a keepsake they made themselves.
• For a themed party: combine several sizes and spread them across the table and buffet. The theme then runs through the whole room.
• For a game set: paint the silhouette black and add a fuse. It becomes a prop that looks straight out of a favourite game.
• In a shop or shop window: quick to set up for a promotion or theme week. Decorate it yourself and take it down again with little effort.
• In a craft class or at school: sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 supply a whole group with identical blanks. Everyone works on the same shape, and every result turns out different.

Good to know about the cartoon bomb

The round bomb with a fuse is a classic image from cartoons and video games. Almost everyone recognises the silhouette at first glance. That's why it works so well as a decoration for themed parties, children's birthdays and home-made game sets. The motif speaks for itself, with no label needed.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do. Store the untreated cutouts in a dry place and keep them away from constant moisture. They will then keep their shape and light colour for a long time. Paint, varnish or oil add extra protection to the surface and make your work last.

Frequently asked questions

Are colour differences in the wood normal? Yes. Wood is a natural material and varies in shade. Fine grain patterns and small knots may occur. This is what makes each piece one of a kind.
