Using these unfinished wood maracas for your crafts is easy. First, peel off the protective paper backing. Then, you can start your DIY project right away. You can paint them, add decorations, or use them as they are depending on your creativity. If you need a hole, just tell us the size and where you want it, and we'll take care of it. When it comes to maintenance, keep them in a dry place to prevent the wood from warping. Since they're made of natural wood, avoid exposing them to excessive moisture. And if you're not using them right away, store them flat to keep their shape. Have fun crafting with these maracas!
