Advent begins, and the kitchen table turns into a craft corner. Glue, paints, glittery paper – only the motif is missing. That is exactly what this cardboard gingerbread figure is for. It is a cleanly lasered silhouette of a gingerbread couple that you can paint, decorate and hang up. An ordinary afternoon turns into homemade Christmas decorations along the way.

What changes for you

  • You can start crafting straight away, with no cutting out. The silhouette arrives ready-lasered with clean, brown edges.
  • Your motif fits your idea exactly. You choose the width freely from 5 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps – from a small hanging tag to a large window decoration.
  • Your colours stay put. The untreated, smooth surface takes acrylic paint, varnish and glue well.
  • Crafting with children stays relaxed. The sturdy solid board keeps its shape and does not bend easily.
  • You can decorate with a clear conscience. The bookbinding board is made from 100 % recycled material.

Why this gingerbread figure makes a difference day to day

Shop-bought Christmas decorations look the same everywhere. A figure you have designed yourself tells the story of the afternoon it was made. In the window, on a branch or as a gift tag: the motif shows that someone made it by hand. And because you choose the size, the figure fits in with what you have already put up or hung.

Material & finish

The silhouette is made from 1.2 mm solid board in bookbinding quality. It is sturdy enough to stand upright, to hang and to take several coats of paint. The surface is smooth and untreated. Lasering leaves the edges brown and cleanly finished. You can glue things on, paint it or varnish it, just as you like. Every figure is lasered in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia.

How to use the gingerbread figure

  • Christmas crafts with children: Each child paints their own figure. In the end, the tree is hung with decorations the little ones are really proud of.
  • In the window: Hang up several silhouettes in different sizes, and a wintry window scene greets the neighbours.
  • As a gift tag: Write a name on a small figure and tie it to the parcel. The present looks lovingly prepared before it is even opened.
  • In a bakery or café: Place the labelled figures on the counter or in the shop window. Your Christmas display gets a consistent motif in just a few minutes.
  • For weddings, engagements or Valentine's Day: Decorate the couple motif as table or photo decoration. A personal detail then runs through the whole celebration.

Good to know about gingerbread

Gingerbread has been part of Advent since the Middle Ages. It was first baked in monastery bakeries. Later, cities such as Nuremberg made it famous. That is why the silhouette works as a Christmas motif at first glance. Everyone recognises it straight away, whether on the tree, in the window or on the shop counter.

Care & durability

There is not much you need to do. Store the untreated cardboard somewhere dry and keep it away from moisture. The figure will then keep its shape for years and be ready to use again next Advent.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint and decorate the figure? Yes. The untreated, smooth surface can be painted, varnished and decorated with glued-on materials. It is ideal for crafting with all kinds of paint.

How sturdy is the cardboard? The bookbinding board is 1.2 mm thick at 755 g/m². It is a firm solid board that does not bend easily while you work on it.

How big will the figure be at my chosen width? The height follows from the aspect ratio. At a width of 10 cm, the silhouette is 6 cm high.

Why are the edges brown? The silhouette is lasered. This creates the typical brown, cleanly finished edges.

Is the material sustainable? Yes, the board is made from 100% recycled material and is produced in Thuringia.

What counts is the afternoon at the kitchen table, spent painting and gluing. And the figure in the window that reminds you of it weeks later. Simply choose your size and your set. The rest happens at your home.
