What is a Woodsie?

Woodsies are precut wood shapes that free you from ever having to cut your own wood shapes again! They come in a number of shapes and sizes with endless possibilities for their use. Their variety makes Woodsies a perfect addition to any project.

You can use Woodsies to make jewelry, animals, miniatures, or you can make a colorful wood quilt and hang an inexpensive piece of “art” on your wall! You can paint, dye, or cover these versatile shapes with wallpaper or fabric.

They are useful for adding dimension and color, and are perfect for teaching shapes to young children. Woodsies come in such shapes as ovals, teardrops, circles, triangles, squares, diamonds, rectangles, octagons, hearts, and stars in small, medium, and large sizes. Many of the shapes are also available in jumbo size.

I know I sound like a sales representative for the Woodsies Company, but these wonderful wooden shapes are a great addition to your craft supplies. Your only limit is your own imagination.
