Using your unfinished wood rain drop silhouette is easy. First, peel off the protective paper backing that's on most of these crafts. This backing is there to keep the wood safe during laser cutting and shipping. You can use it for a wide range of DIY projects. If you need a hole in the shape, tell us the size and where you want it, and we'll add it for free. When it comes to storage, keep it in a dry place to prevent warping or damage. You can paint or stain the wood according to your project needs. Just make sure the surface is clean before you start. If you have any other questions or run into issues, don't hesitate to message us. We're here to help you make the most of your craft.
