It's New Year's Eve and the table is set. At every place, a little lucky charm is waiting for your guests. This wooden chimney sweep to paint and decorate makes that moment happen. You can paint it, stick things on it or simply leave it natural. The untreated plywood cutout is made for your craft idea. Choose exactly the size that suits your project, from 3 cm to 50 cm.

What changes for you

  • You decorate your chimney sweep just the way you like. The wood is untreated, so you can glue, paint or oil it.
  • You'll find the right size for every project, from small table scatter to a large window decoration. Sizes range from 3 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
  • You can start crafting straight away, with no sanding needed. The laser cut leaves smooth edges, so nobody gets a splinter.
  • You can also supply larger groups, such as a craft group or a New Year's Eve party. Sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 pieces are available.
  • You give a small gift with meaning. The chimney sweep is a traditional symbol of good luck.

Why this wooden chimney sweep makes a difference in everyday life

A lucky charm you've decorated yourself says more than any shop-bought card. When you hold the figure, paint it and give it away, a little of you goes into every piece. On the New Year's table, on a present or in the window, the little chimney sweep looks lovingly handmade. Mass-produced decorations rarely manage that.

Material & finish

The chimney sweep is laser-cut from 3 mm plywood. This gives it the typical brown edge that brings out the outline. The wood is left untreated, neither varnished nor glazed. That's why it takes paint, glue or oil well. Wood is a natural material. It varies in shade, shows its own grain patterns and may have the odd small knot. This makes every piece unique. Every cutout is made in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia, and carefully finished.

  • Shape: chimney sweep

How to use the chimney sweep

  • On New Year's Eve: Place a little chimney sweep at every seat. Your guests start the new year with a smile and a good wish.
  • Crafting with children: First paint a chimney together. Then decorate the figure in bright colours and place it on top. It's an afternoon that leaves something lasting.
  • As a gift tag: Tie the figure to a small present or a bottle. A simple gift becomes a personal lucky charm.
  • In a café or bakery: Decorate your counter and shop window with the figures for the New Year. They take just a few minutes to set up.
  • For large groups: With a set of 50 or 100, you can kit out a club party, company event or market stall. Every figure has the same shape, and each one has its own wood grain.

Good to know about the chimney sweep

The chimney sweep has been a symbol of good luck for centuries. In the past, a swept chimney protected the house from fire. So anyone who met a chimney sweep could count themselves lucky. That's why the figure is still part of New Year's Eve and New Year's Day. It's used as table decoration, a small gift or alongside the lucky four-leaf clover.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do. Keep the untreated wood dry and away from constant moisture, and it will keep its natural look for a long time. If you want to use the figure outdoors, protect it first with paint, varnish or oil.

Options & what's included

  • Choose your height: 3 cm to 50 cm, in 1 cm steps
  • Available singly or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100
  • The wooden cutout is supplied in its natural form, untreated

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint the chimney sweep? Yes. The wood is untreated and takes acrylic and craft paints, glue or oil well. You can get started straight away.

Why do the edges have a brown rim? The figure is laser-cut. This creates the typical dark edge that brings out the outline. The edges are smooth and cleanly cut.

Do all the figures look the same? The shape is identical, but the wood isn't. As a natural material, it varies in shade and may show small knots or its own patterns. Every piece is unique.

Is the figure suitable for outdoor use? Untreated, it belongs indoors. For outdoor use, protect the wood first with paint, varnish or oil.

What counts is the moment you hand someone a lucky charm you've decorated yourself. And the new year begins with a smile. Simply choose your size and quantity.
