Real Wood Paper Product Information

• What is Real Wood Veneer Paper?

  Real Wood Veneer Paper is real wood sliced from real trees. It is sliced thin and then a backing material is added for stability and flexibility.
  Depending on the project, it’s available with fleece, paper, sticker/adhesive, or wood backing to provide strength while still bending and cutting like traditional paper.

  Real Wood Paper is available in multiple backing and thickness options to suit a wide variety of projects.

  1. Fleece (Vellum) Backed (.010″)
     Ultra-thin, sheer, and flexible (similar to vellum). Ideal for delicate projects like candle wraps, lamp shades, dollhouse décor, and envelope liners.
  2. Adhesive Backed (.013″)
     A peel-and-stick option with medium tack adhesive. Great for quick application to paper, wood, or craft surfaces. No glue required.
  3. Paper Backed (.016″)
     Our most versatile option. Slightly thicker with a paper backing that supports printing, cutting, and gluing. Popular for layering designs.
  4. Wood Backed (.025″)
     Wood on both sides for a premium, natural look. Sturdy yet flexible enough for laser printers (with straight-feed). Great for menus, programs, or keepsake pieces.
  5. Wood Veneer Panels (1/16″ & 1/8″)
     Rigid sheets for laser cutting and engraving, wood burning, or painting. Available in two thicknesses (1/16″ and 1/8″) and perfect for signs, art, and detailed wood projects.
