Tree of life V2 plywood silhouette – choose 10–50 cm

You're at the craft table and your paints are ready. All you need now is the right motif for your decoration. A plywood tree of life silhouette is exactly that kind of blank. It's a stylised tree with fine outlines already marked on it. You can paint it, decorate it or simply stand it up in its natural state. It's made for your next crafting afternoon. Once finished, you can hang it on the wall, stand it on the table or stick it onto a greetings card.

What changes for you

• You can start straight away without sketching first. All the outlines are already scored into the top side.
• Your motif fits your project exactly. You choose the height yourself, from 10 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• You can design it however you like. The untreated wood takes paint, oil and glue easily.
• There's no need to tidy up the edges. The laser cut leaves smooth, clean edges.
• You'll have enough supplies for bigger projects too, with sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 pieces.

Why this tree of life silhouette makes a difference every day

A motif made of real wood looks warmer and calmer than printed decorations. It blends into your home instead of pushing itself to the front. Use it as wall decoration in the hallway, as a table decoration at a family celebration or as a small tag on a present. The tree of life silhouette brings a bit of nature wherever you want it. And because you design it yourself, you create something that exists only once.

Material & finish

The silhouette is laser-cut from 3 mm plywood. This gives a clean, precise outline and smooth edges that you can work with straight away. The wood is untreated, neither varnished nor glazed. So you can paint, oil or decorate it however you like. Every cutout is made in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia. Wood is a natural material, so every piece turns out a little differently. The shade can vary, and small irregularities in the grain and small knots may occur. That's what makes each piece one of a kind. It isn't a flaw, it's the real character of the wood.

How to use the tree of life silhouette

• On the festive table: a natural tree at every place setting gives your table a calm, natural line. You won't need much other decoration.
• For greetings cards: stick the flat silhouette onto card. A simple card becomes a greeting with real wood you can feel.
• In a café, farm shop or at the weekly market: order them in a set as table scatter or price tags. Your counter will quickly look uniform and lovingly presented.

Good to know about the tree of life

In many cultures, the tree of life is a symbol of growth, family and the connection between heaven and earth. That's why the motif suits occasions that mark the start of a new chapter in life. Examples are a christening, wedding, birth or anniversary.
