Crafts with kids – wooden cow V3 in a meadow, 10–50 cm

The children's party is just around the corner and the craft table is set. You're still looking for a design that little hands can really decorate themselves. The wooden cow is made for your crafting afternoon. It's a laser-cut cow in a meadow made of untreated poplar plywood, ready to paint, stick things on and decorate. The plain cutout becomes your very own wooden decoration.

What changes for you

• You can start straight away without any preparation. The wood is untreated and takes paint, glue or oil directly.
• Your design looks lively from both sides. The contours inside the cow are cut right through, so you can see them from either side.
• You get exactly the size your project needs – from 10 to 50 cm wide, selectable in 1 cm steps.
• When crafting with children, you don't need to worry about rough spots. The edges are smooth and cleanly laser-cut.
• Planning larger activities is easy – for nursery, a school class or a club party. The cow is available on its own or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100.

Why this wooden cow makes a difference every day

A ready-made decoration looks the same in every home. A cutout you design yourself tells your own story. Painted brightly by a child, lightly oiled in country style or covered as a name tag: the cow becomes whatever you make of it. That's why people love to pick it up – and love to give it away even more.

Material & finish

The cow is laser-cut from 3 mm poplar plywood. This gives it the typical, slightly browned edge that outlines the design. The inner lines are cut through and show the cow's markings on both sides. The wood is untreated, neither varnished nor stained. You decide on the finish yourself. As wood is a natural material, every piece is one of a kind. Differences in shade, fine grain patterns or small knots are part of it and are not a defect. Every cow is made in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia.

How to use the wooden cow

• Crafting with children: Every child paints their own cow. In the end, a whole colourful herd stands on the windowsill, and everyone is proud of it.
• For a farm-themed children's party: Put a little cow at every place. As soon as everyone sits down, the table shows what the day is about.
• As a gift tag or parcel decoration: Use a hand-painted design instead of a bow. Your gift will be remembered before it's even unwrapped.
• In a farm shop, café or at a market stall: Use the cow as a price tag on shelves and counters. You can label it in a few minutes, and your goods are presented with care.
• For nurseries, schools and clubs: With sets of 10 or more, the whole group gets the same design. Same starting point, very different results.

Good to know about cows

Few animals stand for country life and the farm as much as the cow. In the Alps, cows are even decorated for the traditional cattle drive down from the mountain pastures. That's why the design suits rustic wooden decorations in country style. It also fits harvest festivals, farm fêtes or any children's project about the farm.

Care & durability

There's not much to do: just wipe off dust with a dry cloth. As the wood is untreated, avoid constant moisture. If you'd like to make the cow more durable, you can paint, oil or stain it. That way it will last as a decoration for a long time.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint the wooden cow? Yes. The wood is untreated and can be painted, decorated, glued or oiled – just as you like.

Can you see the design from both sides? Yes. The contours inside the cow are cut right through, so they're visible from both sides.

Why don't all the cutouts look exactly the same? Wood is a natural material. Shade, grain and small knots vary, and that's what makes every piece one of a kind.

Where does the brown edge come from? It's created during laser cutting and is typical of this cutting method. It gives the design a clear, fine outline.

How tall is the cow? The height depends on the width you choose: at 10 cm wide, the cow is 7 cm tall.

Picture your child proudly placing their own painted cow on the windowsill. From then on, they'll see it there every day. That moment is what this cutout is for. Just choose your size and quantity, and you design the rest yourself.
