Wooden goldfish V2 for crafts – silhouette, 5–50 cm

The birthday party has an underwater theme. The children are already sitting at the craft table, full of excitement. And you still need a design that is easy to paint and still looks good. That's exactly what this wooden goldfish is for. It's a carefully laser-cut silhouette made from 3mm poplar plywood. You can decorate it however you like. A simple cutout becomes your very own seaside decoration.

What changes for you

• You can start painting, decorating or oiling straight away. The wood is untreated and natural, so it takes any colour well.
• Your design looks lively even before you start. The engraved outline adds the goldfish's face and fine lines to the top side.
• You'll find the right size for every project, from a small table scatter fish to a large fish for the wall. You choose the width freely from 5cm to 50cm in 1cm steps.
• You don't need to sand the edges. The laser cut leaves smooth edges that won't bother little hands either.
• Planning bigger craft sessions is easy. The cutout comes singly or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100.

Why this wooden goldfish makes a difference day to day

Ready-made decorations often look generic. A fish you decorate yourself from real wood tells your own story. Hang it in the children's bedroom window, on a seaside garland or next to the aquarium. The light poplar plywood brings calm to the room. A quick craft idea becomes something that lasts. And crafting with children gives you a shared afternoon to remember.

Material & finish

The goldfish is laser-cut from 3mm poplar plywood. This gives it the typical fine brown edge, a sign of this production method. The top side shows the engraved outline. The underside is left natural. The wood is neither varnished nor stained, so you can decorate it exactly as you like. Every cutout is made in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia, with clean, careful finishing. Wood is a natural material, so brightness, grain and small knots always vary a little. That's not a flaw. It makes every piece one of a kind.

How to use the wooden goldfish

• For seaside decorations: combine several sizes and hang them on a ribbon or branch. Your hallway or bathroom instantly feels like a holiday.

Good to know about the goldfish

For centuries, the goldfish has been a symbol of luck and prosperity. In China, it was given as a lucky charm from early on. That's why the design suits seaside decorations as well as money gifts, greetings cards and small tokens that should say more than words.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do. Store the untreated cutout in a dry place and keep it away from constant moisture. It will then keep its natural look for a long time. Painting or oiling it protects the surface further and gives it your own character.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint or decorate the wooden goldfish? Yes. The wood is untreated and natural. You can paint it, stick things on it, coat it or oil it.

Why does the cutout have a brown edge? The fish is laser-cut, which creates the typical brown edge. It's a feature of this production method, not a fault.

Is the design engraved on both sides? No. The engraved outline with face and lines is on the top side. The underside is left natural.

Do all cutouts look the same? The shape is identical, the wood isn't: as a natural material, it varies in shade and grain, and small knots are normal – every piece is one of a kind.

How do I know how tall the fish is at my chosen width? As a reference: at a width of 10cm, the height is 7cm. Other sizes follow the same proportions.

A wooden cutout is only the beginning. What counts is the moment your own goldfish hangs in the window and you think: we made that ourselves. Just choose your size and quantity – and get started.
