Description
This wooden mini house wall art brings a gentle, homely note to a shelf, with a cream front that reads 'Fill a house with love and it becomes a home'. The words run in neat grey capitals, with 'love' and 'home' picked out in a flowing script and 'love' set over a soft heart. The piece is cut in the outline of a little house, complete with a pitched roof and a chimney, and the wood grain shows softly through the cream finish. The roof and front door keep a natural wood tone, the windows are printed in pale squared panes, and a slender sprig grows beside the door. It stands 17cm tall, 11.5cm wide and 3cm deep, a small size that fits comfortably among books, plants and frames.
Being a solid block with a flat base, it sits upright on its own, so it needs no nail or hook and can move from room to room whenever the mood takes you. We like it on a hallway console, where it greets everyone coming through the door, on a mantelpiece, on a windowsill or tucked into a bookcase in the living room. Its cream and natural wood colours sit happily with neutral, Scandi and country schemes alike, and its short, warm message makes it a thoughtful little gift for someone who loves making their house feel like home.
The house is made from wood, with the roof and door set slightly proud of the cream front to give it a little depth and shadow. To keep it looking its best, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth and keep it out of damp spots, as you would any wooden piece. Stand it beside a candle or a favourite plant for a cosy corner, or wrap it up with a handwritten card for a gift that says something kind without needing many words.
