Description
This layered wooden plaque carries a simple message every mum deserves to hear: 'MUM a friend i CAN always DEPEND ON', lettered in grey in a mix of neat capitals and flowing script. A pale grey glazed panel sits raised on a natural wooden board, so the board shows as a warm border around it. A row of fine wildflower and leaf drawings runs along the foot of the panel beneath the words. It is a rectangular piece measuring 14.7cm by 12.2cm across the front and 1.9cm deep. That is small enough to tuck onto the busiest shelf, yet the words are clear enough to read at a glance.
We think it makes a thoughtful Mother's Day gift, a warm thank you for everything she does, or a little extra alongside a birthday card for mum. The soft grey and natural wood tones sit happily in most homes, whether she places it on a mantelpiece, a bedside table, a bookcase or a hallway shelf. Because it stands on its own, it needs no nails or hooks, so it is just as easy to move to her desk or a windowsill whenever she likes a change. The words speak of friendship as much as motherhood, which makes it a lovely choice from a grown-up son or daughter.
The panel has a glazed finish with softly rounded corners. The back is a plain board with an easel stand that props the plaque at a slight angle. To keep it looking its best, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth. For gifting, its slim shape slips easily into a gift bag or wraps neatly in tissue, and it pairs nicely with flowers or a card on the day. Set it where she will see it each morning, and those few words will keep saying thank you long after the day itself.
