Wiggle Wood Animals: Fish, Unfinished, 7" (Discontinued)

Turn a blank canvas into a personalized ocean-inspired character with the Wiggle Wood Animals Fish. Measuring 7 inches long, this unfinished wooden figure arrives ready for your creative touch—no paint or finish applied, letting the natural grain and texture shine through as you design your own aquatic friend. A small, built-in wiggle mechanism gives the fish a playful, life-like motion when nudged or rolled, adding an interactive element to crafts, decor, and learning projects. And because this version is discontinued, it’s a unique collectible for enthusiasts who love a one-of-a-kind DIY piece.

Why this piece stands out

• Unfinished, 7" wooden fish — a generous size that’s easy to paint, stain, or marker-decorate while keeping the wood’s natural character visible.
• Mechanical wiggle action — a simple, internal mechanism creates a light, reassuring wiggle when the fish is moved, delivering tactile fun without electronics or batteries.
• Raw craft canvas — ideal for ocean or nautical themes, classroom projects, or personalized gifts where your design takes center stage.
• Durable, smooth-sanded surface — comfortable to handle and easy to seal or protect after finishing, with safe edges for crafts with kids or DIY enthusiasts.
• Discontinued rarity — a limited, collectible item that adds a touch of exclusivity to your craft supply or display collection.

Ideal use cases

• DIY art projects: paint vivid scales, create a sea-scene display, or craft a unique mobile with several unfinished fish figures.
• Classroom crafts: perfect for art centers focusing on color theory, painting techniques, or early oceanography themes.
• Nursery and coastal decor: customize and display as whimsical accents on shelves, desks, or a kid-friendly pirate or mermaid diorama.
• Gift making: design and seal a one-off keepsake that’s truly personal for birthdays or holidays.

How to finish and care for your fish

• Prepare the surface: light sanding ensures smooth acceptance of paint, stain, or markers. Wipe away dust before applying color.
• Decorate: use acrylic paints for vibrant, durable color, or wood stains to highlight natural grain. Add fine details with paint pens or markers.
• Seal for longevity: after color is complete and dry, apply a water-based acrylic varnish or polyurethane to protect the finish from wear and moisture.
• Display or store: keep out of direct sunlight to prevent color fading; store with a soft protector if stacking with other pieces.

Who will love it

• DIY enthusiasts who want a blank medium to express ocean-themed creativity.
• Teachers and homeschooling families seeking engaging, hands-on crafts with a tactile element.
• Collectors who appreciate limited-edition or discontinued craft items with unique character.

Note: as a discontinued item, availability varies. Each fish offers its own natural wood variation, so expect subtle differences in grain and tone—a reminder that you’re crafting with a truly individual piece.
