Crafts with kids – wooden wallaby, 3–50 cm

An Australia-themed children's birthday party, an afternoon of crafts with kids or a new motif for your window decorations – sometimes all you need is the right figure. This wooden wallaby made of untreated plywood is made for exactly that. It is a cleanly lasered silhouette. You can paint it, stick things on it or simply stand it up as it is – just right for your craft table. This small blank becomes your very own decoration.

What changes for you

• You can start painting, decorating or oiling straight away. The wood is untreated. It takes paint, glue and oil well.
• Your motif always fits the project, from a tiny wallaby for table scatter to a large shelf decoration. It comes in widths from 3 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• You can carry on working without sanding. The laser-cut edges are smooth and cleanly cut.
• When crafting with kids or in a group, you have enough figures for everyone. The wallaby is available single or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 pieces.
• Your finished piece looks finely drawn. The typical brown laser edge frames the silhouette like a drawn outline.

Why this wooden wallaby makes a difference in everyday life

A shop-bought decoration looks the same as everywhere else. One you design yourself tells your story. The wallaby cutout gives you a clearly recognisable shape. You decide whether it becomes colourful decor for a child's room, a gift tag or a shelf display. That way you make decorations that really suit you and your home.

Material & finish

The wallaby is laser-cut from 3 mm plywood in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia. The wood is left natural – not varnished, not glazed. This means paint adheres reliably, and you decide on the surface yourself. Wood is a purely natural material. Brightness, grain and small knots vary from piece to piece. This is not a flaw. It makes every piece unique.

How to use the wooden wallaby

• In nurseries, schools or craft groups as a ready-made blank. You save yourself the sawing and get straight to the fun part: decorating.

Good to know about the wallaby

The wallaby is the kangaroo's smaller relative. Like the kangaroo, it is a symbol of Australia. That's why the motif suits themed parties, travel keepsakes and gifts for anyone who dreams of Down Under. It also works simply as an animal figure in a child's room.

Care & durability

There isn't much you need to do. Store the untreated cutout in a dry place and avoid constant moisture. That way the plywood keeps its shape and natural look for a long time. If you paint or oil the surface, it becomes more resistant.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint the wallaby or stick things on it? Yes. The wood is untreated and can be painted, oiled, decorated with stickers or designed in other ways.

Why does the figure have a brown edge? The wallaby is laser-cut. The brown edge forms during cutting and is typical of this process. The edges are still smooth.

How tall is the figure at a given width? As a guide: at a width of 10 cm, the height is 5 cm. The proportions stay the same for all sizes.

Do all figures look exactly the same? The shape does, the wood not quite. As a natural material, it shows different shades, grain and small knots. Every piece is unique.

This wooden cutout is only the start. A plain silhouette becomes your own small work of art – painted, given as a gift or proudly put on display. Just choose your size and quantity. The rest is in your hands.
