Description
This little wooden house decoration stands on its own flat base. Its front is printed with the words "HAPPY home" in soft grey, beside a crescent moon and a scatter of tiny stars. The body is painted a pale beige, the pitched roof is left in natural wood, and a chimney rises at one side. At the front is a raised wooden door marked with a small heart, next to a grey window of four panes. It is a small piece, 8cm tall, 5cm wide and 3cm deep. That means it tucks into gaps where larger ornaments will not fit, and its depth gives it a steady footing.
Because it needs no wall and no hook, it suits any flat surface in the home: a bookshelf, a mantelpiece, a bedside table, a windowsill or the corner of a desk. The pale beige and natural wood sit happily in calm, neutral rooms. The moon and stars give it a gentle bedtime feel that suits a bedroom as well as a hallway shelf. We like it as a small gift on its own, a kind thought tucked into a parcel, or as a cheerful little piece to greet people as they come through the front door.
The house is made from wood. The beige body is painted, with the moon, stars and lettering printed on, and the roof and door keep the warm tones of the bare grain. Like any painted wood, it is best kept indoors and away from damp. A soft dry cloth is all it needs to stay free of dust, and we would keep water and household sprays away from the printed face. To make a little scene, set it among a few books, a trailing plant or a row of favourite cards. It also makes a simple reminder that home is a happy place to be.
