Guinea pig V2 wood – wooden cutout for crafts, 5–50 cm

The craft table is set and the paints are ready. The children can hardly wait to get started. This wooden guinea pig is made for moments like these. It's a wooden cutout with a funny silhouette. You can paint it, decorate it with stickers and glue or simply use it plain as a decorative figure. An ordinary afternoon turns into a little studio full of proud faces.

What changes for you

• You can start straight away with no preparation. The guinea pig arrives laser cut, with smooth edges and a marked face.
• Your craft project stays relaxed, even with children. The outline and face are already scored into the wood. They guide little hands while colouring in.
• You design it exactly the way you want. The untreated plywood takes paint, glue and oil equally well.
• You'll find the right size for every project. Choose any width from 5 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• Kitting out larger groups is easy too. Sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 pieces come at a lower price per piece than buying singly.

Why this wooden guinea pig makes a difference in everyday life

Ready-made decorations often look the same everywhere. A motif you design yourself tells your own story. Use it as a window decoration in the children's room, as a name tag on a present or as a keepsake of your own guinea pig. The motif turns out exactly as you imagine it. Wood feels pleasant and easy to grip in the hand. So even the blank piece feels like something real.

Material & finish

The guinea pig is laser cut from 3 mm thick plywood. This gives it smooth edges with the typical brown rim. The rim outlines the motif even without paint. The top side has the scored outline with the face. The underside is left natural. The wood is untreated, neither varnished nor glazed. So you can paint it, oil it or glue things onto it. As a natural material, every piece is unique. Differences in shade, fine patterns in the grain and small knots are not flaws. They are simply the character of real wood. Every piece is made in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia.

How to use your wooden guinea pig
