Wooden candle V2 – candle cutout to craft, plywood 5–50 cm

The windowsill is waiting for a little Advent spirit. The paints are ready on the craft table. Only the motif is missing. Wooden candles bring the look of candlelight into your home. There's no open flame at all. This wooden candle with flame is an untreated plywood cutout. It's just right for your next crafting afternoon. You paint it, decorate it or oil it to suit your decorations.

What changes for you

• You design the motif just the way you like – because the wood is natural and can be painted, decorated, coated or oiled.
• You get exactly the size you need – with a choice of heights from 5 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps. From a small card motif to a large window decoration.
• Your decorations look neat and consistent – because the laser cut gives smooth edges and a clean outline.
• You bring candlelight to your window or table without thinking about wax, fire or keeping watch. The silhouette with flame shows a burning candle.
• You can kit out larger projects with ease – because the candle is available singly or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100.

Why this wooden candle makes a difference every day

Few motifs stand for warmth and calm the way a candle does. As a wooden silhouette, it brings that feeling into the room for good, without anything having to burn. Hang it in the window, place it on the laid table or stick it on a card. That creates the cosy feel you usually only get from real candlelight. And because every piece of natural wood looks a little different, your decorations look lively rather than mass-produced.

Material & finish

The candle is laser cut from 3 mm plywood. This gives it the typical brown edge, which gives the silhouette a fine, clear outline. The wood is untreated, neither varnished nor glazed. So paints, glue and oils adhere well. You can start creating straight away without any preparation. Wood is a purely natural material. It varies in shade, shows different grain patterns and may have small knots. That's what makes each piece unique – not a flaw, but character. The cutout is made in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia, with clean, careful finishing.

Good to know about the candle

The candle has been part of Advent and Christmas for centuries. From the Advent wreath to the light in the window, it stands for warmth, reflection and welcome. As a wooden silhouette, you can take this symbol anywhere an open flame isn't possible: into the children's room, the shop window or right onto the window pane.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do. Store the untreated wooden candle in a dry place and simply wipe it with a dry cloth if needed. Avoid constant damp and wet conditions. That way, the natural wood keeps its shape for a long time and is ready for next season.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint or decorate the wooden candle? Yes. The plywood is untreated, neither varnished nor glazed. You can coat it, paint it, stick things on it or oil it.

Where does the dark edge come from? The candle is laser cut. This creates the typical brown edge, which makes the silhouette stand out clearly. The edges are smooth.

How wide is the candle at the height I choose? As a guide: at a height of 10 cm, the width is 7 cm. The proportions stay the same for all sizes.

Do all the candles look the same? The shape is identical, the wood is not. As a natural material, it varies in shade and has its own grain. Small knots are normal too. Every piece is unique.

Does the candle burn? No – the silhouette with flame only shows candlelight. That's what makes it safe for windows, little hands and shop windows.
