Wooden scissors – scissors cutout for crafts, 5–50 cm

A voucher for your favourite hairdresser, a thank-you for your dressmaker or simply a new craft project with the children at the kitchen table – sometimes all that's missing is the right motif. That's exactly what these wooden scissors are made for: a pair of scissors as a wooden silhouette, untreated and ready for your ideas. Choose your size, pick up a brush or some glue – and turn the blank into a decoration that's entirely your own.

What changes for you

• You can design the motif exactly the way your project needs – because the plywood is untreated, you can paint it, decorate it, colour it or oil it.
• You'll find the right size for every idea, from a small table scatter piece to a large shop window display. You can choose any height from 5 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• You can get started straight away, with no sanding or finishing needed – the laser cutting leaves smooth, clean edges.
• For larger projects, children's groups or shop displays, you get just the right quantity – individually or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100.

Why these wooden scissors make a difference every day

A ready-made decoration looks the same as everywhere else. Decorative scissors you design yourself tell your story. Use them as a lovingly decorated gift voucher tag, as wall decor in your sewing room or on the counter of a hair salon. The natural material feels grippy and slightly rough. It looks different from printed card or plastic.

Material & finish

The silhouette is laser-cut from 3 mm plywood. It has the typical fine brown edge that comes with this production method. The wood is untreated, neither varnished nor glazed, so paint and glue adhere well. Wood is a purely natural material, so every piece turns out slightly different. Some are lighter, some darker, each with its own grain and now and then small knots. This is not a flaw. It makes every piece unique. Every wooden scissors cutout is made in Bütic's own production in Pößneck, Thuringia.

How to use the wooden scissors

• Crafting with children in the afternoon: each child paints their own little pair of scissors – and in the end, a colourful garland full of one-of-a-kind pieces hangs in the children's room.
• As a gift tag for a hairdresser or tailoring voucher: write a name on it, thread a ribbon through – and your gift feels personal rather than generic.
• In a hair salon or sewing studio: several large pairs of scissors in the shop window or on the wall – and your business shows what it stands for before anyone even walks in.
• As table scatter for a celebration, for example after passing a journeyman's exam in a trade: spread small motifs across the table – and your guests have an instant talking point.
• In sets for craft groups, schools or nurseries: with 10, 25, 50 or 100 pieces, there's a blank for everyone – with no need to reorder individually.

Good to know about scissors

For centuries, scissors have been the emblem of tailors and hairdressers – hardly any tool stands so clearly for a craft. That's exactly why the motif works so well as decoration for salons, sewing rooms and studios, or as a tag for vouchers and gifts related to these professions.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do: keep the untreated wooden scissors dry and protect them from prolonged moisture, and they'll keep their natural look for a long time. If you'd like to make them more durable, simply paint or oil them.

• Height of your choice: 5 cm to 50 cm, in 1 cm steps
• Available singly or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint or decorate the wooden scissors? Yes. The plywood is untreated, so paints, varnishes, oils and glue adhere well to the surface.

Why do the scissors look different from one another? Wood is a natural material. Shade, grain and small knots vary from piece to piece – and that's exactly what makes each one unique.

Do I need to sand the edges? No. Laser cutting produces smooth edges with the typical brown rim, so you can start decorating straight away.

Are the scissors available in larger quantities? Yes, as well as single pieces, you can order sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 – for craft groups or shop decoration, for example.

In the end, it's not about a piece of plywood. It's about the moment a simple blank becomes something of your own – painted at the kitchen table or hung up in your own salon. Simply choose your size and quantity and get started.
