Description
This heart plaque brings a little of the coast indoors, with two sea glass cottages sitting among pebble shapes beneath the words "THE BEACH IS MY HAPPY PLACE". The heart has a soft white finish with a whitewashed, grain-effect look, and the lettering sits across the top in warm brown, with gulls in flight scattered around the edges. The two cottages are pieces of frosted green glass, each with tiny white windows and a small door, set between pebble shapes above and below so the scene reads like a little stretch of shoreline. Its face measures 14.1cm one way and 13.2cm the other, and it is 2.1cm deep.
A loop of twisted rope cord lets it hang from a single hook or nail, so it suits a hallway, a bedroom wall, a kitchen dresser or the side of a bookcase. It sits happily in coastal and cottage-style rooms, where the white finish and soft green glass pick up pale walls and natural textures. As a gift, it makes a thoughtful Mother's Day present for a mum who counts the days to her next trip to the sea, and a kind thank-you for a teacher who loves a beach walk at the weekend.
The white heart carries its words and gulls in brown, while the glass cottages and pebble shapes stand proud of the surface for a gently textured, three-dimensional scene. To keep it looking its best, dust it with a soft dry cloth, keep it away from damp and take care around the raised glass pieces. We like it hung at eye level, where the little cottages can be seen up close, or grouped with seaside prints and a jar of shells for a calm coastal corner. Wrapped with a card, it is a simple way to tell someone you know exactly where they would rather be.
