Description
This layered wooden plaque sets a gentle thought about friendship on a white panel framed by a natural wood border. The printed words read "it's the friends we MEET ALONG THE WAY that help us appreciate THE JOURNEY" in soft grey, mixing flowing script with simple capitals, with a small heart at the top and a row of five hand-drawn houses along the bottom. The white panel has a glazed finish and sits raised on the wooden backing, which gives the piece its layered look and a neat framed edge. It is rectangular, 12.5cm wide and 1.5cm deep, a compact size that suits a shelf or desk without crowding it.
With an easel stand at the back, it stands on its own and needs no wall fixings, so it can rest on a mantelpiece, a bookshelf, a bedside table or a hallway console. The little row of houses makes it a thoughtful new home gift for a friend settling into a new place, and the words make it a heartfelt gift for any close friend who has shared the road with you. Its quiet white and grey palette sits comfortably in most rooms, from a bright living room to a calm home office.
The wooden backing is plain on the reverse, with the easel set centrally so the plaque leans back at a steady angle. To keep it looking its best, dust it with a soft dry cloth now and then, and wipe the glazed panel gently with a slightly damp cloth when it needs it, drying it straight away. As a housewarming present, it tucks easily into a gift bag with a card, and we like it on a hallway shelf beside a bowl for the new keys, where the words greet everyone who comes home.
