Wooden diamond for crafts – plywood rhombus 3–50 cm

Perhaps you're planning homemade Christmas decorations, bunting for the children's room or a crafty afternoon with the kids – and you're looking for a blank that's easy to decorate. This plywood diamond is made for your next craft project: untreated, with smooth laser-cut edges and available in any height from 3 to 50 cm. Pick it up, reach for a brush or some glue – and a simple shape becomes your own design.

What changes for you

• You can start crafting straight away, with no sanding or cutting – because the diamond is laser-cut and has clean, smooth edges.
• You can decorate it exactly the way you like: paint it, stick things on it, oil it or write on it – because the wood is untreated, with no varnish or glaze.
• You'll find the right size for every project, from a small tag to a large decorative piece – with heights from 3 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• For bigger projects such as Advent calendars or party favours, you'll have plenty of material to hand – because you can order the diamond singly or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100.
• You're working with an honest natural material from our own production. Every diamond is laser-cut in Bütic's own production in Pößneck, Thuringia.

Why this wooden diamond makes a difference every day

Shop-bought decorations are everywhere – pieces you've designed yourself tell your story. With a wooden cutout in a clean diamond shape, you can create decorations that suit your home: in your colours, with your names, for your occasion. And because the shape is so simple, the result looks calm and tidy rather than cluttered – whether in the window, on the wall or on a gift.

Material & finish

The diamond is made from 3 mm plywood, so it feels light yet holds its shape well. Laser cutting gives it smooth, splinter-free edges – pleasant when painting and when crafting with children – along with the typical brown edge that gives the cutout its handcrafted character. The wood is a purely natural material: shade and grain vary, and small knots may occur. That's exactly what makes every piece unique – and your decorations one of a kind.

How to use the wooden diamond

• Christmas crafting with children: each child paints their own diamond – and at the end, a colourful row of homemade decorations hangs on the tree.
• For gifts of money: write a name and the occasion on a small diamond, tie it to the envelope – and a plain envelope becomes a lovingly designed gift.
• As a garland or bunting: thread several diamonds in different sizes onto a string. In just a few minutes, a child's room, window or party table is decorated with a diamond pattern.
• For Mother's Day or Father's Day: a painted diamond with a personal message – a small gift that's homemade and therefore kept.
• In a café, at the market or in a shop: write on large diamonds to use as price tags or signs – consistent, natural and quick to swap when your range changes.

Good to know about the rhombus

The word rhombus comes from Greek and originally meant a spinning top – the equilateral shape with its slanted angles has been known since antiquity. As a diamond pattern, it still has a firm place in tradition and design today, for example in the Bavarian coat of arms with its lozenges. It's precisely this clear, timeless geometry that makes the shape so rewarding for garlands, patterns and decorations that won't go out of fashion after one season.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do: simply wipe off dust with a dry cloth. As the wood is untreated, you should protect it from wet and constant damp – or paint or oil it yourself if you want your decoration to be a little more hard-wearing. That way, the diamond keeps its good looks for a long time.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint or decorate the wooden diamond? Yes. The plywood is untreated and takes paint, glue and oil well – you can paint it, stick things on it, oil it or write on it.

Why does the diamond have a brown edge? The edge is created during laser cutting and is typical of this process. It also ensures smooth, splinter-free edges.

How does the width relate to the height? As a guide: at a selected height of 10 cm, the width is 8 cm. This ratio helps you plan your project.

Do all the diamonds look the same? The shape does, the wood not quite: as a natural material, it varies in shade and grain, and small knots are possible. That's not a flaw – it makes every piece unique.

In the end, it's not about a wooden cutout. It's about the moment your homemade decoration is hanging up, the gift has been handed over and someone asks: "Did you make that yourself?" Simply choose your height and quantity – and get started.
