Wooden Halloween bat V3 – silhouette, 5–50 cm

Two weeks to go until Halloween. The children are already excited – and the window is still waiting for its decorations. This wooden bat gives you a blank that is ready to paint, decorate and hang up. It is a laser-cut bat silhouette made from plywood. The face and wing outlines are already finely marked. Small table scatter piece or large figure for the shop window? You choose the height from 5 to 50 cm, just right for your craft afternoon.

What changes for you

• You can start straight away instead of sawing first. The bat arrives fully laser-cut with smooth edges.
• Your Halloween decorations look consistent rather than thrown together. The scored outlines give the figure clear lines and depth, even unpainted.
• You design it exactly the way you want. The untreated wood takes paint, glue, oil or wood stain easily.
• You'll find the right size for every space. You choose any height between 5 and 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• Crafting with children stays simple. A brush and a few colours are all you need, and every bat becomes a little artwork of its own.

Why this wooden bat makes a difference

Ready-made plastic decorations often look the same everywhere. A wooden figure you have designed yourself says something about you. Hang it in the window, place it on the laid table or stick it onto cards and gifts. A simple cutout becomes part of your own decorations. That freedom is what makes the difference. You decide on the colour, size and where it goes, not the finished product.

Material & finish

The bat is laser-cut from 3 mm plywood. This gives it the typical brown edge that frames the silhouette. The edges are smooth. The top has fine scored outlines, and the underside is left natural. The figure is neatly finished and feels good in your hand. The wood is untreated, neither varnished nor stained. It can vary in shade and grain and may show small knots. This is not a flaw – it makes every piece one of a kind. Every bat is made in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia.

How to use the wooden bat

• Crafting with children before Halloween: each child paints their own bat. In the end, a little colony of hand-decorated figures hangs in the window.
• For Halloween decorations at home: combine several sizes and hang them on threads. A whole flock flutters through your hallway or living room.
• On invitations and gifts: stick on a small bat. Your spooky party invitation sets the mood as soon as it is opened.
• In a café, bakery or shop: large silhouettes in the shop window and small ones on the counter. Your seasonal decorations are up in a few minutes. You can design them to match your own colour scheme.
• For nurseries, schools or craft groups: order a set of 10, 25, 50 or 100 pieces. Every child gets their own blank – no cutting, no preparation.

Good to know about bats

Since Bram Stoker's “Dracula” at the latest, the bat has been firmly linked with vampires and Halloween. That is exactly why the silhouette works so well as seasonal decoration. Everyone recognises the motif at first glance – in the window, on the buffet at a spooky party or in an October shop window display.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint or decorate the bat? Yes. The plywood is untreated. You can paint, oil, decorate or stain it – just as you like.

Why does the figure have a brown edge? The bat is laser-cut. The brown edge forms naturally during cutting. It is typical of this cutting method.

Do all the bats look the same? The shape is always identical, but the wood is not. As a natural material, it varies in shade and grain. Small knots are normal. Every piece is one of a kind.

How wide is the bat at my chosen height? As a guide: at a height of 10 cm, the width is 9 cm. The proportions stay the same for all sizes.

What counts is the moment when your hand-painted bats hang in the window. The children proudly show you which one is theirs. Simply choose your size – singly or as a set – and get started.
