Pink wooden dragonfly – cutout for crafts, 3–50 cm

Spring is just around the corner, but the windowsill still looks bare. You're looking for a motif that brings a sense of lightness into your home. This pink wooden dragonfly is made for your spring decorations. Hang it in the window, stick it on a card or place it on the laid table. Straight away the room feels a little brighter. You choose the wingspan freely from 3 to 50 cm. So the dragonfly works as anything from a small piece of table scatter to a large wall decoration.

What changes for you

• You'll find exactly the size you need – the wingspan can be chosen from 3 cm to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• You can decorate with it or give it as a gift straight away, without picking up a brush yourself – the front already has a pink glaze.
• You can also craft with children. The glaze meets the requirements of DIN EN 71-3.
• Your projects turn out clean and fit precisely – thanks to the laser-cut, accurately sized cutout with smooth edges.
• You save time and money on bigger projects – you can order the dragonfly individually or as a set of 10, 25, 50 or 100.

Why this wooden dragonfly makes a difference every day

A ready-cut motif takes the most laborious part of crafting off your hands. You don't need to draw, saw or sand anything. Instead you start straight away with the fun part – designing, arranging, hanging up. An idea in the afternoon becomes a finished decoration the same day. And the strong pink stands out at once in a window, on a shelf or in a child's room.

Material & finish

The dragonfly is made of 3 mm poplar plywood. It is light and feels nice in the hand. The laser cut gives accurate outlines and the typical finely browned edge, which gives the motif depth. The pink glaze on the front is applied with care. Depending on the light, the wood grain and small knots show through. This is not a flaw but the mark of a genuine natural material: every piece is unique. The back is left natural and untreated. You can paint it, write on it or stick things on it as you like. Every dragonfly is made in Bütic's own production in Pößneck, Thuringia.

How to use the pink dragonfly

• Crafting with children: the natural back gets painted or decorated – and every child proudly takes their own dragonfly home.
• For spring decorations in the window: hang up several dragonflies in different sizes – and the room feels light and summery.
• Making a Mother's Day gift: a small dragonfly on a greetings card or a wrapped present – made with love, without much effort.
• For money gifts: the dragonfly holds the folded note or sits on the envelope as decoration. A plain envelope becomes a personal gift.
• In a shop or café: as seasonal decoration in the shop window or on the counter. The sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 let you decorate larger areas quickly and consistently.
• For nurseries, schools and craft groups: the sets provide identical blanks for the whole group. Everyone starts with the same basic shape, and every result is unique.

Good to know about the dragonfly

The dragonfly has long been a symbol of lightness and change – in Japan it even stands for good luck. That's why the motif suits not only spring and summer decorations. It also fits occasions that celebrate a new beginning: starting school, moving house or a kind wish on a greetings card.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do: simply dust it with a dry cloth when needed. Wood is a natural material, so keep the dragonfly away from constant moisture. Then it will keep its colour and shape for many seasons.

Frequently asked questions

Is the dragonfly pink on both sides? No, only the front has a pink glaze. The back is left natural and untreated – ideal for painting or writing on yourself.

Is the stain suitable for children's crafts? Yes, the stain meets the requirements of DIN EN 71-3.

Why does the dragonfly have a brown edge? The dragonfly is laser-cut. The finely browned edge is typical of this process, and the process also gives smooth, accurate edges.

How tall is the dragonfly for a given wingspan? Height and wingspan are the same: with a wingspan of 10 cm, the height is also 10 cm.

Do all dragonflies look exactly the same? The shape is accurate to size, but wood is a natural material. Grain, shade and small knots may show through. That is what makes every piece unique.

A wooden cutout is only the starting point. What counts is the moment when your finished dragonflies hang in the window and spring has arrived indoors before it starts outside. Simply choose your size and quantity – and get started.
