Wooden sloth for crafting – plywood silhouette, 3–50 cm

The craft table is ready, the paints are out, and the children can hardly wait to get started. This wooden sloth is made for afternoons just like that. It is a lovingly laser-cut plywood silhouette, just waiting to be painted, decorated or covered with stickers. A plain blank becomes a little favourite. Use it in the children's room, as a gift tag or as decoration on a shelf.

What changes for you

• You can start straight away, with no preparation – the wood is untreated and takes paint, glue or oil directly.
• Your children can craft along with ease. The laser-cut edges feel smooth and sit comfortably in the hand.
• You'll find the right size for every idea. The width can be chosen from 3 cm to 50 cm in 1 cm steps. That covers everything from a small hanging decoration to a large wall decoration.
• You're also ready for group projects. Besides the single piece, there are sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100, for example for a children's party or a craft session.
• Your finished piece gets a clear outline automatically. The typical brown laser edge neatly frames the design.

Why this wooden sloth makes a difference every day

Ready-made decorations often look the same everywhere. A sloth you've designed yourself tells a little story instead. It tells of an afternoon spent together, of your own colour idea, of the moment it finally finds its place. The wood shows its pale, smooth surface. It stays clearly visible in the room without any effort.

Material & finish

The silhouette is laser-cut from 3 mm plywood. This gives smooth edges and a clean, even shape, even in the delicate areas. The wood is untreated, so it is neither varnished nor stained. You decide whether to paint it, decorate it, coat it or oil it. As a natural material, every piece shows its own grain, small knots or slight differences in colour. This is not a flaw. It is what makes every sloth one of a kind. Every piece is made in our own production at Bütic in Pößneck, Thuringia.

How to use the wooden sloth

• For money gifts and greetings cards: Stick on or tie on a small sloth. A plain envelope becomes a gift with a wink.

Good to know about the sloth

For many people, the sloth stands for calm and slowing down. It simply takes the time it needs. That's why the design works so well as a small gift for people you wish more calm in everyday life. It also makes a light-hearted decoration at work and at home.

Care & durability

There isn't much you need to do. Keep the untreated wood dry and avoid constant moisture. Then the silhouette keeps its shape for a long time. If you paint, oil or varnish it, you protect the surface even more. The design then keeps its look for good.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint the sloth straight away? Yes. The wood is untreated and takes paint, glue and oil without any preparation. It's ideal for painting, sticking and decorating.

How tall is the sloth at a given width? The height depends on the proportions of the design. At a width of 10 cm, the sloth is 7 cm tall.

Why is the edge brown? The sloth is laser-cut. The fine brown edge is typical of this cutting method. It gives the silhouette a clear, clean outline.

Does every sloth look the same? The shape is always identical, but the wood is not. As a natural material, it shows different shades, grain patterns and small knots. Every piece is one of a kind.

Is the sloth suitable for larger craft projects? Yes. With sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100, you're well equipped for children's parties, school projects or craft sessions.

A wooden cutout is just the start. What counts is the moment a sloth you've decorated yourself finds its place. It raises a little smile every time. Simply choose your width and quantity. The rest happens at your craft table.
