Acrylic glass plaque with oak wooden stand

Christoph wanted to create the perfect wedding gift for his friends, who absolutely love hiking. This inspired him to design a unique wall sign made from three layers of acrylic glass to give it a striking 3D effect. During the creative process, he had an additional idea: crafting an oak wood stand to complement the sign. This way, his friends could choose to display the piece either as a wall decoration or standing proudly on a flat surface. The wall sign is not just versatile but also beautifully personalised - Christoph engraved the couple’s names and their wedding date onto the wooden stand. The stand is practical too. When the wall sign isn't in use, it can double up as a stylish photo holder.
The project details
For the wall sign, Christoph worked with three types of acrylic glass - frosted, black, and white. By carefully layering and gluing these materials, the design took on its distinct 3D effect. Using basic woodworking tools, he crafted the oak stand and then laser-engraved the personalised details into the wood. This thoughtful project exemplified both creativity and functionality, and it’s something the couple can cherish forever.
