Wooden gnomes to craft – couple in love, 3 mm plywood

Valentine's Day is just around the corner. You'd like to add something to your gift. Something that doesn't look shop-bought, but looks like you. That's exactly what this wooden gnome couple is made for. It's a laser-cut plywood silhouette of two gnomes in love. Use it in natural wood, or paint, decorate and add embellishments to suit your idea. A small piece of wood becomes a greeting that people like to keep.

• You hold a finished design and can start straight away. The wooden gnomes are precisely laser-cut. The outlines and faces are already marked with laser-scored lines.
• You can design your gift, table decoration or greeting card your own way. The untreated wood takes paint, oil and glue easily.
• You'll find the right size for every idea. Choose from 5 cm for a gift tag up to 50 cm for a window decoration, in 1 cm steps.
• Planning larger craft sessions or decoration projects is easy. Sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 pieces are available.
• The gnomes are pleasant and safe to work with. The laser cut leaves smooth edges with no splinters and no sanding needed.

Why these wooden gnomes make a difference in everyday life

Homemade things feel different from bought ones. They feel warmer, more personal and more honest. With this gnome couple in love, you don't need to be a pro. The design is already cut out. You just add your own style. Use it as a small tag on a gift or as a decoration on the laid table. Either way, the gnome couple quietly shows that someone has put thought into it.

Material & finish

The gnomes in love are laser-cut from 3 mm plywood in our own production in Pößneck. The laser cut gives clean, smooth edges. It also leaves the typical brown edge that gives the design its distinctive look. The top side carries the scored outline lines. The underside stays natural. The wood is untreated, neither varnished nor glazed. So you can paint it, glue things on or oil it as you like. Wood is a natural material, so every piece turns out a little different. Variations in shade, fine grain patterns or small knots are normal. That's what makes every gnome couple one of a kind.

Good to know about the gnome

Gnomes come from Nordic folk tradition. There they are seen as good-natured house spirits who watch over home and family and are said to bring luck. As a couple in love, the design suits occasions about affection and home. Think Valentine's Day, wedding anniversaries or moving into a shared home.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do. Store the untreated wood in a dry place and protect it from constant moisture. This keeps the natural surface looking good for a long time. If you paint or oil the gnomes, you also seal the surface and make it more resistant.
