VisualizationSunburst Medallion SVG, Round Daisy Mandala Laser Cut File DXF, Boho Wall Hanging, Mid Century Sun Decor
A round medallion with a ring of about thirty pale teardrop petals radiating from a small centre dot, set on a solid engraved background inside a plain rim. The disc is 90 mm wide and 97.5 mm tall including its tab (3.54 × 3.84 in); its 4 mm hole is in that tab. The outer cut is just a circle, so it is fast to cut and packs tightly.

How to make it
- 01Import and confirm the disc is 90 mm across; the tab brings the height to 97.5 mm.
- 02If you plan to paint the background, cover the face with masking tape before engraving.
- 03Engrave the dark background as one fill with tight line spacing, then cut the circle and the hole.
- 04Peel the mask, paint or oil the medallion, and hang it from cord or ribbon.
Daisy, sun or mandala
Look at it one way and it is a daisy from above; look again and it is a mid-century sunburst or a simple mandala. The petals are narrow teardrops with the rounded end outward and the point towards a small round centre, and both petals and centre are left as bare wood. Everything between them is a solid dark fill, framed by a plain ring at the edge. That negative approach gives strong contrast and a graphic, printed look, especially on light birch.
A big fill and a simple cut
Almost all of the work is engraving. Per disc, plan on 6 min 58 s of diode time at 10 W, or 2 min 25 s and 1 min 42 s on 40 W and 100 W CO2 machines (estimates, 3 mm plywood). The cut path is only the circle and the tab, so cutting takes seconds. For an even background, keep the sheet flat and use a fine line interval; the narrow dark wedges between the petal points near the centre show any blur first. Painted versions work well: gold, mustard or teal on the engraved area, sanded back from the petals, gives a ceramic-tile look.
Ways to sell the medallion
- Boho wall hangings: string three or five discs vertically on macrame cord.
- Summer and solstice decor, painted yellow and orange as a sun.
- Mid-century modern Christmas sets alongside starburst shapes.
- Housewarming gifts with a family name or a date engraved on the back.
Questions about this file
Is this a daisy or a sun?
Both readings work. A ring of petals around a dot can be sold as a daisy, a sunburst or a mandala, depending on the colours you choose and the shop category you list it in.
Can I leave the tab off and use it as a coaster?
You can delete the tab and hole in your software and cut a plain disc. At 90 mm wide it is close to coaster size, but seal the engraving well, because the dark fill soaks up moisture.
How can I paint only the background?
Mask the face before engraving, then paint over the mask once the job is done and peel it off. The petals stay clean and only the engraved area takes colour.
Will the engraving look even across the whole disc?
It will if the plywood is flat and the focus is right. Warped boards give lighter patches on one side, so weigh down the corners or use honeycomb pins.
How many discs come out of one board?
Nine from 300 × 400 mm and eighteen from 600 × 400 mm in straight rows. Circles pack better when every second row is offset, so a nesting tool may add a few more.
