The perfect tree disc
Every craft project requires solid base material; otherwise, the project is doomed from the start. Given this, it's crucial to select the right tree slice. High-quality wooden slices are characterized by their natural texture. The wood grain makes each piece unique. Natural solid wood slices with a diameter of 25 to 32 centimeters are ideal for versatile decorative purposes. The characteristic light brown wood color with the dark brown bark underscores their authentic character.
A thickness of approximately 3 centimeters gives the wooden discs solid stability for a variety of applications. The natural structure of the wood manifests itself in slightly different shapes – from round to subtly oval. This characteristic of the natural material makes each tree disc a unique piece of jewelry. The untreated surface also allows for individual design options.
Versatile decoration with wooden discs - Natural accents for every living style
Wooden discs are particularly impressive as coasters for various home accessories. On a coffee table, a natural wooden disc forms the perfect base for impressive vases of fresh flowers. The combination of natural wood and floral elements creates harmonious arrangements. Glass vases, in particular, are highlighted by the contrast against the rustic wooden surface. Candles placed on wooden discs create a cozy atmosphere – individual pillar candles add striking accents, while tealights in glass holders create soft light effects.
Seasonal table decorations gain a natural charm with wooden discs. In spring, delicate spring blossoms adorn the dining table. Summery arrangements with grasses and wildflowers exude lightness. Autumnal decorations with colorful leaves, chestnuts, and small pumpkins on wooden discs exude a cozy atmosphere. The winter season invites festive designs with fir branches, cinnamon sticks, and golden accents.
Integrating wooden discs into existing interior design concepts is effortless. In a modern setting, the natural wooden discs create an exciting material contrast with glass, metal, and clean lines. The country-style interior gains additional authenticity from wooden discs. Scandinavian interiors benefit from the simple, natural quality of wooden discs.

Finishing wood surfaces with paints, varnishes, or firing techniques opens up numerous design possibilities. Gold or silver accents add elegant highlights.

The rustic wooden slices support candlesticks and create atmospheric lighting. Smaller slices serve as placemats or display table numbers. Guest names engraved on wooden slices serve as special place cards.
Festive table decoration
Wooden discs add structure and elegance to the festive table. Large ones form the basis for impressive centerpieces. Combinations of candles, flowers, and decorative elements on wooden discs create striking arrangements. Several smaller wooden discs combine to create dynamic decorative lines along the table.
Decoration throughout the year
Spring brings delicate blossoms and fresh greenery to wooden discs. Summer festivals adorn natural wooden discs with wildflowers and grasses. Autumn decorations combine pumpkins, berries, and colorful foliage. The Christmas season enchants with fir branches, Christmas tree baubles, and fairy lights on rustic wooden discs.
Valuable care tips for long-lasting tree discs
The lasting beauty of the wooden discs unfolds through proper storage. A dry storage location with a constant room temperature optimally protects the natural material. Storage is best done lying down, away from direct sunlight. These conditions prevent deformation or cracking.
A preventative treatment with high-quality wood oil protects the wooden slices from drying out. The oil penetrates deep into the wood fibers and retains their natural moisture. Regular oiling every three to four months prevents the formation of cracks. Applying a special wood sealant to the cut surfaces further minimizes the risk of cracking.
Cleaning the wooden discs is straightforward. A soft, dry cloth removes surface dust. For heavier soiling, gently wiping with a slightly damp cloth helps. After cleaning, the wooden surface dries completely. A subsequent treatment with wood oil refreshes the natural shine of the grain.
