Rocket V2 craft cutout – bookbinding board, 5–50 cm

Your child's next birthday party is coming up, and the theme is clear: space. Instead of searching for the right decorations, you can use the Rocket V2 cardboard cutout. You can paint it, decorate it and hang it up. It is made for the craft table with your children. A plain piece of card becomes exactly the rocket that fits your idea.

What changes for you

• You design the rocket just the way you want. The untreated bookbinding board can be decorated with paper, painted or varnished.
• You get clean, even outlines without tedious cutting out. That is thanks to laser cutting, which leaves the typical brown edges.
• You will find the right size for every idea, from a small tag to a large wall decoration. The height can be chosen from 5 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• Your craft project keeps its shape, even when little hands help out. The 1.2 mm solid board is firm and holds its shape.
• You can craft with a clear conscience. The board is made from 100 % recycled material and is produced in our own production in Pößneck.

Why this cardboard rocket makes a difference in everyday life

A ready-made cutout takes care of the hardest part for you: cutting out an even shape cleanly. You start straight away with the fun part. Paint, glitter, paper – whatever you fancy. A crafting afternoon is no longer a test of patience. It becomes time spent together, and at the end there is a rocket everyone is proud of.

Material & finish

The rocket is made of firm solid board in bookbinding quality with 755 g/m². It feels pleasantly sturdy in your hand. It does not warp as easily as thin card when you paint it. The surface is smooth and untreated, so paint and glue stick well. The brown edges are created during laser cutting and are typical of the cutout. The finish is clean and free of burrs. Every rocket is made by Bütic in Thuringia.

• For the first day at school: Attach a small rocket to the school cone. The space theme is clear at first glance.
• For gifts of money: Attach a banknote to the rocket and add a greeting such as “Ready for take-off”. The envelope turns into a gift with a wink.
• For a children's birthday or themed party: Combine several sizes as table decorations or a photo backdrop. The room looks decorated without hours of preparation.
• In shops or shop windows: Use large rockets as decoration for promotions around children's, toy or space themes. They are quick to hang up and quick to take down again.

Good to know about bookbinding board

Bookbinding board is traditionally used for book covers. That is exactly where material has to keep its shape for years. You benefit from this strength when crafting. The rocket stands securely, hangs straight and does not bend while you paint it.

Care & durability

There is not much you need to do. Store the rocket in a dry place and keep it away from constant moisture, as the board is untreated. This way it keeps its shape for a long time. Once varnished or painted, your decoration will last for many occasions.
