Oval Wood Blanks – MDF or Birch
WK-40037M-8-18
The oval is the softest shape in our blank lineup — no corners, which makes it a natural fit for door hangers, family name signs, and anything you want to read as vintage or classic rather than modern. Pairs especially well with script lettering and monogram stencils.
Available in six sizes from 4" x 6" up to 12" x 16", in your choice of MDF or Baltic birch.
MDF comes in 1/8" or 1/4" thickness. Birch is mostly cut in 1/4", with a few smaller sizes available in 1/8".
MDF (medium density fiberboard) is smooth, lightweight, and takes paint beautifully with no grain showing through. Seal it before any exposure to humidity or moisture — before or after painting is fine. Water exposure may cause it to swell.
Birch plywood is natural wood with visible grain, and it's the easier choice if you want to stain for a natural look. Plywood should also be sealed to protect against moisture and warping.
