Using this unfinished Australian Shepherd dog - shaped wood craft is super easy. First, peel off the protective paper backing before you start your DIY project. You can customize it however you like, such as painting it, adding decorations, or using it as a stencil. If you need a hole in the shape, just let the seller know the size and location, and they'll add it for free. As for sizing, you have options from 3 inches up to 36 inches, so pick the one that suits your needs. When it comes to maintenance, keep it in a dry place to prevent warping or damage. Since it's made of wood, avoid exposing it to excessive moisture. If you notice any dust, you can simply wipe it off with a dry cloth. That's all there is to it! Enjoy your crafting experience.
