Description
This freestanding wooden quote plaque spells out FRIEND in soft peach cut-out letters, standing proud along the top of a white block. Beneath them, the front carries a short verse in neat, rounded lettering: "If I had a flower for every time you made me SMILE I'd have a GARDEN to walk in." On either side of the words, pastel flowers in peach, pink, blue, yellow and fresh green rise up like a little wildflower border, printed in loose watercolour-style washes. It is 15cm wide, 7.8cm tall and 2cm deep, so it sits comfortably in a small space without crowding it.
Because it stands on its own flat base, it needs no wall, nails or hooks. Set it on a bookshelf, a mantelpiece, a bedside table or a desk at work, wherever a friend will catch it during the day. The verse does the talking, which makes it a lovely gift for the friend who always makes you smile, the one who is there through the good weeks and the hard ones. It also suits a friend who is a mum on Mother's Day, given with flowers or a card as a small thank you that lasts long after the bouquet has faded.
The block and letters are wooden, with the verse and flowers printed on the white front and the back left plain white, so the piece looks tidy from any angle. The letters have clean, crisp edges and sit in a neat row along the top, and from behind they still read in peach against the white. To keep it looking fresh, dust it with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from damp and direct heat. We think it makes a thoughtful little present on its own, or tucked into a gift bag with a candle or a favourite treat for a friend who deserves a smile.
