Light blue wooden heart – plywood cutout for crafts

A little Valentine's greeting, a money gift for a new baby or an afternoon of crafting with children. Often you just need one piece to bring it all together. A light blue wooden heart is that piece. You write on it, stick things to it or decorate it. A nice idea turns into something people like to hold. You can choose sizes from 5 to 40 cm. So it suits your next project, from a mini heart on a gift ribbon to a large wall decoration.

What changes for you

• You'll find the right size for every idea. You can order each light blue heart individually, from 5 to 40 cm high in 1 cm steps.
• You can start crafting straight away, with no sanding or finishing. The edges are laser-cut and smooth, and every cutout is made to exact size.
• You can hand the hearts to children. The stain meets the requirements of DIN EN 71-3.
• Your decoration looks warm rather than generic. Depending on the light, the wood grain shimmers through the light blue stain. This makes every heart one of a kind.
• You can design the untreated back as you like. Paint it, write on it or simply leave it as it is.

Why this wooden heart makes a difference every day

Among printed cards and shop-bought decorations, a hand-lettered wooden heart stands out. It looks calm, natural and personal. The soft light blue suits christenings and births just as well as Valentine's Day or spring decorations in the window. Wood feels solid and smooth. So a small extra becomes something people keep rather than throw away.

Material & finish

Every heart is made from 3 mm plywood in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia. The laser cut gives smooth, precise edges with the typical brown rim. This rim gives the heart a fine outline. The front has a carefully applied light blue stain. Depending on the light, the grain and small knots show through. Wood is a purely natural material. These differences in brightness and texture make every piece unique. The back is left natural and untreated, so you can design it however you like.

Good to know about the heart

The heart shape has stood for love and affection since the Middle Ages. Light blue is traditionally the colour for the birth and christening of a boy. So these hearts suit not only Valentine's Day. They are just as right for baby showers, christenings and any occasion when you want to give someone something personal.

Is the stain suitable for children? Yes, the light blue stain meets the requirements of DIN EN 71-3. That includes crafting with children.

Why do the hearts look slightly different? Wood is a natural material. Brightness, grain and small knots vary from piece to piece. That's what makes every heart one of a kind.
