Walnut Hollow - Baltic Birch Plywood Plaques

Baltic Birch Plywood Plaques

Create rustic plaques you can burn, paint, or stain into custom gifts

Baltic birch's tight grain structure and minimal voids make it ideal for pyrography, where you need clean burns without unexpected gaps interrupting your design. These unfinished plaques arrive ready for your technique of choice, whether you're layering acrylic paint, applying wood stain to highlight natural grain patterns, or building up decoupage surfaces. The plywood construction provides dimensional stability that solid wood can't match, resisting warping when you apply wet media or work in varying humidity conditions.

Walnut Hollow leaves these plaques unfinished deliberately, giving you control over surface preparation. Light sanding smooths the face for detailed painting or precise wood burning; heavier texturing creates rustic effects for distressed finishes. The natural variations in wood tone and occasional rustic characteristics add organic interest rather than uniformity, each plaque develops its own character as you work. Multiple plies visible at the edges become design elements in their own right, especially when stained or left natural to contrast with painted surfaces. Start with a blank canvas that adapts to your vision rather than fighting predetermined finishes.
