Using this unfinished wood ring bearer shape is easy. First, peel off the protective paper backing that comes on most of these crafts. This backing is there to keep the wood safe during cutting and shipping. If you need a hole in the shape, just tell us the size and where you want it. You can also choose a different font for the word craft when you place your order. When it comes to crafting, you can paint it, stain it, or add any decorations you like to make it your own. As for maintenance, keep it away from excessive moisture to prevent warping. If it gets dirty, you can gently wipe it with a dry cloth. Enjoy creating amazing projects with this wood craft!
