Description
This wooden standing plaque carries a heartfelt message for Grandad, printed in white on a soft sage green face. The word Grandad opens it in a flowing script, and the rest reads like a letter from a grandchild, thanking him for his life advice, his fun times and his millions of 'back in my day' stories, and closing with 'You're an all round good egg. Love you.' A fine white line runs across the top and bottom of the text, and a silver-tone heart with a gently hammered look sits in the lower right corner. The plaque is rectangular, 21cm tall, 11.5cm wide and 2cm deep, a neat size that reads easily at arm's length.
Because it stands on its own, it needs no wall and no nails: it sits happily on a mantelpiece, a bedside table, a bookshelf or the windowsill beside his favourite chair. We think it makes a lovely Father's Day gift for a grandfather, from a grandchild who wants to say the things that are hard to put into a card. The words are warm and a little cheeky, with a nod to his biscuits and his stories, so it suits the grandad who is young at heart and loves a laugh. The soft green works well with natural wood, cream walls and soft neutral rooms.
The plaque is made of wood with a printed finish, the message set straight onto its green face. Its 2cm depth gives it a sturdy edge and a little presence on the shelf. To keep it looking its best, dust it with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from damp and direct heat, as you would any wooden piece. Pair it with a card from the grandchildren or tuck it into a gift bag with his favourite biscuits, and it becomes a keepsake he can keep in view long after the day itself.
