Wedding gift: saw cut tree

An original souvenir can be made in the form of a wall panel. The created tree will symbolize strong family ties. In addition, on each saw, if the size allows, it is easy to write a wish or the names of guests.

To make such a souvenir, work like this:

1. Prepare saw cuts in accordance with the dimensions of your product. Don't make them too thick.
2. Remove the bark, dry and sand the surface of the blanks.
3. Write the text on large cuts or use the burning technique. You can also make some thematic drawings on the surface of each element.
4. If an image is drawn on the saw cuts or applied using the decoupage technique, varnish the surface of the workpiece. Burning is usually not varnished.
5. Prepare a base (for example, a sheet of plywood) or a wire frame, although a small structure can be done without them.
6. Connect the saw cuts in turn to each other, for example, using hot glue.
7. Varnish the finished structure if you have not carried out this step with each element separately.

According to this principle, you can assemble absolutely any design by combining saw cuts of different sizes. Crafts using this technique are easy to make for the New Year in the form of a simplified Christmas tree triangular shape, wreath, month; for Valentine's Day or for a wedding, make hearts, swans. In a word, there are a lot of opportunities to show imagination.

The brightness, expressiveness and originality of handmade woodwork allows you to use them to decorate any room, while creating unique interior solutions.

An ancient type of folk craft

At the turn of the 9th-10th centuries, artistic woodworking was well known. Especially this type of art was widespread in the North, the Upper and Lower Volga regions, as well as among the masters of the Nizhny Novgorod, Vladimir, Arkhangelsk and Vologda provinces.

Now this type of folk craft is not forgotten and is at the peak of its popularity. The wood is used in the production of sculptures, household items, interior decoration accessories, musical instruments, as well as a large number various original souvenirs.

Modern exclusive handmade wood

If you decide to visit the Russian Gift House "Rus Velikaya", you will be amazed by the great variety of handmade wood products presented. All of them are made by Russian masters in a single copy. For their manufacture, wood of valuable tree species was used, for example, sandalwood, which emits a pleasant aroma for a long time, as well as oak, ash and linden.

The Russian Gift House "Rus the Great" has collected an exclusive and original collection of magnificent handicrafts made of wood especially for admirers of interior products and collectors.

Talented Russian craftsmen subtly feel all the artistic features of the texture of each type of wood, which is of great importance to the final result. The quality of products depends not only on the talent of the master, but also on the properties of the material used in production.

Our online store "Great Rus" presents exclusive handmade from wood, for the creation of which soft hardwoods are used, for example, ash, oak, linden and other species, which allows craftsmen to achieve flawless work.

For example, ash has a beautiful texture of noble white color with a subtle yellowish or pinkish tint, and its wood is different high strength and viscosity. Oak is characterized not only by its high strength and hardness, but also by its resistance to decay, as well as its excellent ability to bend. Linden wood practically does not crack and is perfectly cut.

To give the products a beautiful, finished image, they are first polished and then covered with environmentally friendly varnish, some of them are painted in an exclusive author's manner. Many craftsmen decorate their products with engravings. precious metals, "dressed in fabric outfits", and some professionals when creating compositions, some of its elements are cast from brass, which makes it possible to achieve special expressiveness and realism in their work.

In the store "Velikaya Rus" you can buy handicrafts made of wood, which will be a wonderful gift for your friends, colleagues, business partners and will be able to replenish the collection of exclusive interior products.

The souvenir industry is flourishing despite the difficult economic situation in the country. Many consumers, trying to choose an original memorable souvenir for their loved ones, are ready to spend a lot of money. So why not start making money on it? And an excellent example of a cost-effective business idea in this niche would be the manufacture of custom-made wooden souvenirs. Wooden souvenir products are in great demand when compared with products made from other raw materials. And the main reason for this is the use of natural ingredients. The tree seems to keep the warmth of the hands of the master processing it, and the composition itself turns out to be bright and lively. Many will love this gift!

Our business valuation:

Starting investments - from 50,000 rubles.

Market saturation is low.

The complexity of starting a business is 3/10.

According to experts, making souvenirs and gifts from wood as a business is more suitable for those who already have certain skills in manual woodworking. Otherwise, you will have to study the technology literally from the very beginning, and there is no certainty that the business will succeed - either the lesson itself will not be to your liking, or the quality finished products will leave much to be desired.

If the decision has already been made, you can safely proceed to the implementation of the project. It is relatively easy to open your own small production of wooden souvenirs for sale. But even here, a novice entrepreneur has to take into account many nuances.

Advantages and disadvantages of a business idea

Generally, this direction can only be described positively.

Judge for yourself:

• The price of finished products is 2-4 times higher than the funds spent on the purchase of raw materials. This is due to the involvement of manual labor in the process.
• Business costs are minimal, especially if an experienced craftsman takes over the business, since the necessary inventory may already be available.
• Souvenirs and gifts made of handmade wood are in high demand among consumers.
• An entrepreneur has the opportunity to organize a business right at home or in a workshop, avoiding high rental fees for a separate room.

But there is one significant drawback that can "scare off" newcomers - the activity will be seasonal. The bulk of sales are usually official holidays– February 23, March 8, Christmas, New Year, Valentine's Day. But this does not mean that on the rest of the days you will have to sit idle and earn money - the problem is completely solvable if you correctly build a marketing policy, advertising your work and offering your services to corporate clients.

Assortment of wooden souvenirs

In order for literally everyone to have a desire to buy wooden souvenirs and gifts, it is necessary to take care of providing the most complete list of services, starting with the sale of finished products and ending with the performance of work for a specific order.

If the master only plans to sell souvenir products, it is better to immediately prepare a certain “stock” of finished products, which will later be distributed either to stores or to private buyers. You will especially have to work hard before the holidays, since many retail outlets fill the shelves with gift products during this period.

What kind of wooden handmade souvenirs are most in demand among buyers today?

• Models of cars and planes (mostly old ones).
• Carved circles.
• Caskets.
• Smoking pipes.
• Clock.
• Figurines reflecting Russian traditions (, bears, coats of arms, amulets).
• Carved "landscape" panels.

Working under the order is no less profitable, since in this case there are often wholesale orders. For example, business souvenirs made of wood with a logo are in great demand today, and I order such gifts far from a single copy. To attract customers, it will not be superfluous to create your own portfolio, where photos of the work done will be stored - so the customer will be able to appreciate the work of the master.

Materials and tools necessary for work

To get beautiful and original wooden souvenirs, you will need a certain set of materials and tools. And for beginners in this field, this will be the main expense item.

The main raw material is wood. It is environmentally friendly, easy to process and, subject to the basic rules, can retain its original appearance for a long time without succumbing to external negative impacts. But in order for the figurine not to dry out and crumble after a couple of months, the master needs to carefully choose the type of wood. Carved wooden souvenirs are usually made from deciduous and coniferous trees. They have proven themselves well in terms of appearance, and in terms of durability the following trees:

It is not uncommon for a craftsman not to purchase wood from suppliers, but to “produce” it on his own (unless, of course, the necessary tree species grow nearby). And this will not only save money, but also help to avoid purchasing low-quality raw materials from unreliable sellers.

Making wooden souvenirs with your own hands will also require the use of additional raw materials - stains, varnishes, paints. All this is quite available literally in every hardware store. In addition, small products do not have to spend a large amount of protective compounds.

And of course, the work of making wooden souvenirs at home is impossible without a certain set of tools and improvised equipment. The "equipment" of the home workshop will require the largest share of the initial capital to be spent. And if an automatic machine for wooden souvenirs is quite suitable for serial production, then hand tools will be required for handmade products. While not really understanding the technology, it is better to turn to an experienced craftsman for advice, who will advise high-quality and reliable tools.

Making homemade wooden souvenirs and gifts is quite difficult, but the whole process can be divided into certain stages:

• Preparation of wood (treatment with a special composition, drying).
• Making a souvenir (wood cutting, birch bark weaving).
• Souvenir polishing.
• Coloring the product with paints.
• Processing of the finished souvenir with special protective compounds.

Problems of sales of finished products and business profitability

In order for the sale of wooden souvenirs in bulk to bring tangible income, it is necessary at the initial stage of business planning to provide for an expense item for advertising manufactured products.

What marketing tools are possible here?

• Advertisements in the newspaper and the Internet.
• Own site on the Internet.
• Booklets with product samples.
• Distribution of leaflets.

Even according to the most pessimistic forecasts, the workshop offering Russian wooden souvenirs for sale will pay off very soon. And the numbers prove it. For example, a small carved box costs from 3,000 rubles. And the cost of the product does not exceed 500 rubles. (including the cost of wood and varnishes). And by performing more expensive orders, you can get much more for your work.

To start making mahogany souvenirs with your own hands, the master will have to invest 60,000-150,000 rubles. But the costs can literally drop to 20,000-30,000 rubles, if there are already available necessary tools and inventory - in this case, the funds will go only to advertising.

Whether or not to register their activities, let each master decide for himself. But here it is worth considering that you cannot build mutually beneficial cooperation with wholesale customers and souvenir shops without the relevant documents on the registered workshop.

Over time, when things go uphill, you can open your own souvenir shop, where everyone can buy wooden souvenirs and gifts. To fill the shelves of the store with quality products, it would be better to expand your workshop by hiring experienced specialists.

Wood products have always been valued by Russian people for their beauty and healing power that they emit. Due to its plasticity, this natural material takes any form in the skillful hands of the master. Each souvenir is made by hand, which eliminates the stereotypes of the product. You can be sure that the gift given close person, will be unique.
