Using these unfinished wood Renaissance Faire shapes is easy. First, peel off the protective paper backing. This paper is there to protect the wood during laser cutting and shipping. You can then start your craft project right away. If you need a hole in the shape, send us a message with the size and location you want, and we'll add it for free. For sizing, these shapes are available from 2' up to 36' in diameter. They're made from cabinet - grade Baltic birch plywood in 1/8 (3mm), 1/4 (6mm), or 1/2 (12mm) thickness. If you want a different thickness, just reach out. When it comes to maintenance, keep the wood in a dry place to prevent warping. If you paint or stain the wood, make sure to follow the product instructions on the paint or stain. We'll ship your order within 24 hours, so you can start your project quickly. If you have any questions during the process, don't hesitate to message us.
