Chicken V2 plywood cutout for crafts, 5–50 cm

The kitchen table has just been wiped. The watercolours are ready. The children can hardly wait for the afternoon. This chicken wooden cutout is made for exactly these moments at your craft table. It is a chicken silhouette in untreated plywood. You can paint it, decorate it or simply leave it natural, just as you like. A plain blank becomes your own spring or farmyard decoration.

What changes for you

• You can start painting, staining or decorating right away. The wood arrives untreated in its natural state and takes paint well.
• Your chicken looks lively even before the first brushstroke. The face and contours are scored into the top surface.
• You get exactly the size that suits your project. Choose from 5 cm for a window picture up to 50 cm for a large door decoration, in 1 cm steps.
• There is no sanding to do before little hands get to work. The cutout is laser-cut and has smooth edges.
• For bigger craft groups, you don't need to order each piece separately. The chicken also comes in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100.

Why this chicken wooden cutout makes a difference in everyday life

Decorations you make yourself feel different from mass-produced ones. They tell of an afternoon spent together. They tell of small hands holding brushes, and of ideas that are truly your own. A wooden blank gives you the starting point. The shape is set, and the design is entirely up to you. The result is spring and farmyard decoration that suits your home, not a catalogue.

Material & finish

The chicken is laser-cut from 3 mm plywood. It has the typical brown edge, which gives the shape a clear, finished outline. The top surface has scored contour lines for the face and feathers. The underside is left natural. So you can decide which side to decorate. Every cutout comes from our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia. Wood is a natural material, so each piece turns out slightly different. Shades vary, each has its own grain, and some have small knots. This is not a flaw. It makes every chicken one of a kind.

How to use the chicken cutout

• Crafting with children: Each child paints their own chicken. At the end, a whole colourful flock hangs in the window.
• For spring and Easter decorations: Put a few chickens on your door wreath or seasonal table. Then the new season has arrived indoors too.
• As a window decoration: Hang small sizes on a string in the window. They make a friendly frame for the view outside.
• As a gift tag or table decoration: Write on a chicken and place it on an Easter basket or a charger plate. Your guests will find their seats with a smile.
• In a farm shop, bakery or market stall: With a set of 25, 50 or 100 pieces, you can decorate your counter and shelves in the same style for spring. They are quick to set up and easy to pack away again.

Good to know about the chicken

Chickens and hens have long been among the best-known symbols of farm life. In folk tradition, they stand for spring and new life. That is why, along with the bunny and the egg, they are classic Easter motifs. This makes the cutout a good fit for crafts around the farm, spring and Easter, from window pictures to shop decorations.

Care & durability

Care is simple. As the wood is untreated, an occasional dry dusting is enough. Avoid constant moisture. If you want to use the chicken outdoors, protect it with a coat of paint, varnish or oil. That way your decoration will last a long time.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint or decorate the chicken? Yes. The wood is untreated and in its natural state. You can paint, oil, stick things on or decorate it, just as you like.

Are both sides designed? No. The scored contour lines with face and feathers are on the top surface. The underside is left natural.

Why does the cutout have a brown edge? The chicken is laser-cut. The brown edge forms during cutting and is typical of this cutting method.

Does every chicken look the same? The shape does, the wood not quite. As a natural material, it varies in shade and may show small knots or differences in the grain. That is what makes each piece unique.

How wide is the chicken at my chosen height? As a guide: at a height of 10 cm, the width is 7 cm. Other sizes scale accordingly.

The wooden cutout is only the starting point. What counts is the afternoon when a plain piece of wood becomes your own little flock of chickens. And the moment it hangs in the window for the first time. Just choose your size and quantity. The rest is up to you.
