Description
This mini wooden frame plaque carries a gentle grey line drawing of a little huddle of houses, with the words 'Home SWEET Home' set on a strip beneath. The drawing sits on a white panel inside a natural wood frame, and the centre house is a separate raised piece, standing just proud of the houses drawn around it, with a small heart topping its chimney and a sprig of leaves by the door. Around it are cottages with tiled roofs, tiny windows and a few climbing plants, all drawn in the same soft hand. It is a small rectangle, 7.8cm along its longer side and 2cm deep.
It hangs from a loop of cord, so a single small hook or picture pin is all it needs. Being so compact, it suits the spots a larger piece would crowd: beside the front door, on a narrow strip of hallway wall, at the end of a bookcase or on a landing. The white, grey and natural wood palette sits quietly with most decor, from pale painted walls to warm timber, and the drawn houses bring a homely, cottage feel without any fuss. As a small gift it says something warm about the place a person calls home.
The frame and panel are wooden, the frame left with its natural wood grain showing and the panel finished in white, a faint grain still visible through it. The raised house and the separate words strip give the front a layered look, and a darker band runs along the edges. To keep it looking its best, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth and keep it indoors away from damp and steam. Hang it at eye level where the fine detail can be seen, or group it with a few other small pieces on a hallway wall for an easy, lived-in arrangement.
