Description
This wooden plaque takes the shape of a flower pot brimming with cheerful blooms, and it carries a kind message for a friend. A peach pot with a soft lilac rim holds a sunny yellow sunflower, a white daisy, a pale yellow daffodil and a blue bell-shaped flower, all set among sage green leaves. The flowers are cut as separate layers, so the sunflower and daisy sit forward of the foliage and give the piece a gentle depth. Across the pot, in warm coral lettering, it reads 'Friends like you make life a little brighter'. It stands 23cm tall, 15.5cm wide and 1.5cm deep.
We think it belongs wherever a friend will see it every day: a mantelpiece, a bedside table, a kitchen windowsill or the corner of a desk at work. The easel stand on the back means it needs no wall and no fixings, so it can move from room to room whenever the mood takes. The soft colours sit happily with pale painted walls, natural wood and white furniture alike. As a gift for a friend it says something that can be hard to put into words, and it will still be blooming long after a bunch of cut flowers has faded. Wrap it with a handwritten note, or hand it over in person with a cup of tea.
The plaque is made of wood with a hand-painted finish, and the back is plain white, with the stand attached behind the pot. To keep the colours fresh, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth, which is good practice for any painted wood. Stand it at eye level where the words can be read at a glance, perhaps beside a favourite photograph of the two of you, and it will bring a bright little lift to the room.
