Santa V1 cardboard – cutout for crafting, 5–50 cm

It gets dark early outside. Paints, brushes and glue are ready on the kitchen table. And the children can hardly wait. This cardboard Santa is made for afternoons like these. It is a ready laser-cut cutout made of sturdy bookbinding board. You can paint it, decorate it or simply hang it up as it is. Crafting with the children turns into your new Christmas window decoration along the way.

What changes for you

• You can start decorating straight away. There is no need to print and cut out templates first. Your Santa arrives cleanly laser-cut.
• Your Christmas decoration keeps its shape all season. The solid board is 1.2 mm thick. It does not warp like thin craft card.
• You can decorate it just as you like. The untreated, smooth surface takes paint, varnish and glue reliably.
• You will find the right size for every project. Choose anything from a small 5 cm gift tag to a large 50 cm window figure, in 1 cm steps.
• You can decorate with a clear conscience – as the board is made from 100% recycled material.

Why this cardboard Santa makes a difference in everyday life

Shop-bought Christmas decorations look the same everywhere. A Santa you decorate yourself shows your own style. Use it in the window, on the Advent calendar or as a small extra on a present. The figure brings exactly the mood you have in mind into your home. And because you choose the size, the cutout fits your project – not the other way round.

Material & finish

The solid bookbinding board weighs 755 g/m² and feels noticeably sturdy in your hand. This gives your craft projects support and keeps even large figures stable. The surface is smooth. Laser cutting leaves clean edges with a typical brown colour. This is part of the process and shows that the piece was laser-cut. As the board is untreated, you can paint, varnish or decorate it as you like. Every Santa is made in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia.

How to use your Santa

• Christmas crafting with children: everyone paints their own Santa. In the end, a small gallery hangs in the window, and everyone is proud of it.
• For the Advent calendar: use small figures as numbers or tags on the little bags. Opening one each day becomes even more festive.
• On the table for Christmas dinner: place one figure at each seat as a name card. Your guests have something to discover before the first course.
• In a shop, café or bakery: large cutouts up to 50 cm give your shop window a Christmas look in a few minutes. With sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100, you can decorate several branches or a whole counter in the same style.
• As a gift tag: tie a small Santa to the parcel. Even the plainest wrapping paper then looks lovingly wrapped.

Good to know about Santa

The figure of Santa goes back to Saint Nicholas of Myra. He was already honoured as a bringer of gifts in the Middle Ages. That is why the figure suits more than Christmas Eve. It goes with the whole of Advent – from St Nicholas' Day and the Advent calendar to the window decoration in December.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint or decorate the Santa? Yes. The board is untreated. You can paint it, varnish it or stick things on it – ideal for your own ideas.

Why are the edges brown? The cutouts are laser-cut. This creates the typical brown edges – a clean cut without fraying.

Is the cutout suitable for crafting with children? Yes. The sturdy board is easy to paint and decorate. It also stands up to eager little hands. You do not need any templates to cut out.

Can I hang the decoration outside? The board is untreated and should be protected from moisture. It is best kept indoors in the window, on the wall or on a branch.

Is the Santa available in larger quantities? Yes. As well as single pieces, there are sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 – for example for school classes, clubs or shop decorations.

What counts is the afternoon spent painting and gluing at the kitchen table. And the moment the finished Santa hangs in the window for the first time. Just choose your size and get started.
