Split wooden heart – plywood cutout for crafts, 3–50 cm

The wedding card is in front of you, your craft supplies are spread out – all that's missing is the motif that tells the story: two halves that belong together. This split wooden heart is made for exactly that moment at your craft table. Pick up the smoothly laser-cut plywood silhouette, and a simple card becomes a little keepsake.

What changes for you

• You'll find the right size for every project – because you can choose the heart from 3 cm to 50 cm in 1 cm steps, from gift tag to window decoration.
• Your cards and decorating ideas get a handmade character – thanks to the typical brown laser edge that neatly frames the shape.
• You can start painting, gluing or oiling straight away – the wood is untreated and takes paint, glue and oil well.
• When you're making Christmas cards or crafting with children, there's no sawing needed – the edges are laser-cut and smooth, with no finishing required.
• For bigger projects, there's no need to order several times – the heart is available singly or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100.

Why this split wooden heart makes a difference every day

Homemade things feel special when the base material is right. With the split heart silhouette, you have a motif that tells a story all by itself – whether on a wedding invitation, on a money gift or as a tag on a Mother's Day bouquet. You don't need great skill to get a result that people love to receive and love to keep even more.

Material & finish

The heart is laser-cut from 3 mm plywood. This gives it smooth edges and a clean shape down to the last detail. The surface is left natural, not varnished or glazed. So you decide for yourself whether to paint it, stick things on it, coat it or oil it. Wood is a purely natural material. It varies in shade, shows different patterns in the grain and may have small knots. That makes every piece one of a kind, not faulty. The heart is made in Bütic's own production in Pößneck, Thuringia.

How to use the split wooden heart

• For weddings: stick one half of the heart on the invitation and one on the thank-you card – and your guests will be holding a symbol of belonging together the moment they open it.
• When making money gifts: use the heart to hold the note and a dedication – and an envelope becomes a lovingly designed gift.
• When crafting with children: each child paints their own half of the heart – and together they make a Mother's Day or Father's Day gift that truly comes from the heart.
• In the window: arrange several hearts in different sizes as a window decoration – and the room instantly feels warmer and more personal.
• In a café or farm shop: small hearts as gift tags on bags and jars – your goods look lovingly presented, with no extra effort in your day-to-day business.

Good to know about the split heart

The split heart has long been a symbol of connection: two halves that only make a whole together are familiar from friendship pendants as well as wedding traditions. That's why the motif is especially suited to wedding cards, anniversaries and gifts between people who belong together – each half can even be given on its own.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do: store the untreated wood in a dry place and protect it from prolonged moisture, and it will keep its natural look for a long time. If you oil or paint it, you'll seal the surface as well – whatever suits your project.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint or decorate the heart? Yes. The wood is untreated and has a natural finish – you can paint it, stick things on it, coat it or oil it.

Why does the heart have a brown edge? The heart is laser-cut. This creates the typical brown edge that emphasises the silhouette – and the laser cut also gives you smooth edges.

Do all the hearts look the same? The shape is identical, but the wood isn't: as a natural material, it varies in shade and may show small knots or grain patterns – every piece is unique.

What does the size refer to? The chosen size applies to the height and width. So at 10 cm, the heart is 10 cm high and 10 cm wide.

In the end, it's not about a piece of plywood. It's about the moment someone opens your card, holds the half-heart in their hand and feels that you've put thought into it. Simply choose your size and quantity – and start creating.
