Christmas moose craft – cardboard moose silhouette, 5–50 cm

Advent is just around the corner. This year you want to decorate your home yourself, with decorations you won't find in every shop. This cardboard Christmas moose is made for exactly that. It is a clear moose silhouette made from sturdy bookbinding board. You can paint it, stick things on it or simply stand it up as it is. A cosy afternoon of crafting becomes your very own Christmas decoration.

What changes for you

• You can start straight away if you want to make a moose for Christmas. The silhouette arrives ready cut, so all you need to do is decorate it.
• Your decoration keeps its shape all through Advent. The sturdy 1.2 mm solid board does not bend easily.
• You can decorate it however you like. The untreated surface takes paint, varnish and glue reliably.
• You'll find the right size for every idea. Choose anything from a small 5 cm tag to a large 50 cm window decoration, in 1 cm steps.
• You can craft with a clear conscience. The board is made from 100% recycled material.

Why this Christmas moose makes a difference

Homemade decorations tell a different story from shop-bought ones. In the window, on the Advent wreath or on the table, your guests see pieces you made yourself. You can stand the moose up plain and natural. Or you can paint it in bright colours together with your children. The board is sturdy, so you can bring out your favourite pieces again next year.

Material & finish

The moose is laser-cut from solid board in bookbinding quality. That is why it has a smooth surface and the typical brown edges. They give the silhouette a clear, clean outline. The board is untreated and neatly finished. At 755 g/m² it feels pleasantly firm in your hand. Every cutout is made in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia.

How to use the Christmas moose

• At Christmas dinner: put a small moose with a name written on it at each place. The place card becomes a keepsake your guests can take home.
• As a gift tag: a 5 cm moose on a ribbon turns plain brown paper into a gift that brings joy before it is even unwrapped.
• As a moose template: trace the outline onto wood, fabric or window paint. You can copy the motif as often as you like, always in the same shape.
• In a café, bakery or at a market stall: large moose fit into your Christmas window and counter display in just a few minutes. There is no big set-up needed.
• For weddings, birthdays or winter parties: combine several sizes to make a garland or a mobile. It looks like winter straight away.

Good to know about the moose

The moose is a symbol of Scandinavia. Hardly any other animal stands so clearly for the North, with its forests and winters. That is why it has become a popular motif for Nordic-inspired Christmas decorations. It suits simple natural decorations just as well as colourful children's crafts.

Care & durability

There isn't much you need to do. Keep the moose dry and protect it from lasting moisture, as the board is untreated. That way it keeps its shape. You can hang up your decorated pieces again year after year.
