Suggested Uses

This 2" maple square is a favorite among hobbyists for making custom coasters, engraved keepsakes, and small signs. Model builders often use them as floor sections or wall panels in scaled projects thanks to their flat, uniform shape. In classrooms, they work well as a base for painted ornaments or craft displays. DIY decorators incorporate them into mosaic arrangements, mixed-media art, or layered designs for wall hangings.
