Using this Unfinished Wood Aquarius Water Pitcher Shape Zodiac Craft is a breeze. First, peel off the protective paper backing that's on the craft. This backing is there to protect the wood during laser cutting and shipping. You can customize the shape by adding a hole. Just send a message to the seller with the size and location you want for the hole. The craft comes in different diameters, from 3 inches to 36 inches, so pick the size that suits your project. You can choose from 1/8 (3mm), 1/4 (6mm), or 1/2 (12mm) cabinet - grade Baltic birch plywood. If you need a different thickness, don't forget to tell the seller. When it comes to maintenance, keep the wood in a dry place. Since it's unfinished, you can paint, stain, or decorate it as you like. If you have any questions along the way, click the 'Message Seller' button, and they'll help you out.
