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

The children's party is just around the corner, the craft supplies are ready – all that's missing is the motif. This wooden aeroplane gives you a silhouette you can paint, decorate or simply hang up as it is, exactly as you imagine – made for your next craft afternoon. Whether as decoration in a child's bedroom, on a gift or at a themed party: the wooden aeroplane instantly brings a touch of wanderlust to the table.

What changes for you

• You can get started straight away without sanding – thanks to the smooth laser-cut edges, the aeroplane feels neat and clean in your hand.
• Your decoration fits its spot exactly, because you choose the width freely from 3 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps. Go for anything from a small aeroplane for table scatter to a large piece for your wall.
• You can design it just the way you like, because the wood is untreated and takes paint, glue, oil or varnish directly.
• Planning bigger projects is easy, because you can order the motif singly or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 – for a school class, a children's group or a shop window, for example.
• You get consistent quality, because every aeroplane is laser-cut in our own production at Bütic in Pößneck.

Why this wooden aeroplane makes a difference every day

Ready-made decorations often look the same everywhere. When you can craft and design a wooden aeroplane yourself, you create something that truly suits you – in your colours, your size, for your occasion. The warm natural material looks calm and homely, whether left plain or painted in bright colours. That's how a simple cutout becomes a piece that tells a story.

Material & finish

The aeroplane is laser-cut from 3 mm thick plywood, which gives it the typical brown edge – it frames the motif and gives it a crisp outline. The surface is untreated, not lacquered or varnished, so you can paint, decorate, coat or oil it straight away. Wood is a purely natural material: it varies in shade, shows different grain patterns and may have small knots. This isn't a flaw – it's exactly what makes every piece unique.

How to use the wooden aeroplane

• At a children's party: every child gets to craft and paint their own wooden aeroplane – and takes home a keepsake they designed themselves.
• On a gift: a little plane on a travel voucher or holiday money – and the envelope already hints at the destination as you hand it over.
• In a child's bedroom: several aeroplanes in different sizes on the wall or on a mobile – creating a little sky to dream under above the bed.
• For a celebration: as table scatter or place-name tags at a christening, first day of school or farewell party – your guests find their seats and have something to take home straight away.
• In your business: in the window of a travel agency, café or shop, the wooden planes catch the eye – and with sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 you can decorate large areas with little effort.

Good to know about the aeroplane

The brown edge comes from the laser cutting: the laser beam cuts through the wood with heat, which slightly darkens the cut edge. For you, this has a lovely side effect – the motif looks finely outlined and stands out well against its background, even unpainted.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do: simply store the untreated wood in a dry place and protect it from constant moisture, and it will keep its shape and look good for a long time. If you'd like to use it outdoors, give it a protective finish with paint, lacquer or oil.

Frequently asked questions

Is the wood treated? No, the aeroplane is untreated, neither lacquered nor varnished. You can paint, decorate, coat or oil it straight away.

Why do the aeroplanes look different? Wood is a natural material: shade, grain and small knots vary from piece to piece – which is exactly what makes every aeroplane unique.

Where does the brown rim on the edges come from? It's created by the laser and is typical of this cutting method. The edges are smooth and don't need sanding.

Can I use the aeroplane outdoors? Untreated, it's best kept somewhere dry. Protected with lacquer, paint or oil, you can use it for outdoor decorating too.

In the end, it's not about a wooden cutout. It's about the moment a child proudly holds up the aeroplane they painted themselves – or when your decoration tells exactly the story you had in mind. Just choose your width and quantity, and you design the rest.
