Description
This heart plaque with sea glass brings a little of the seaside indoors, wherever you hang it. Across the top, in a flowing script, it reads "All you need is love and the BEACH", with BEACH in capitals. Below the words sits a tiny cottage made from soft blue sea glass, with two small windows, a door and a pale roof, perched on a cluster of three pebbles. Around it, simple drawings of gulls, leaping dolphins and two sailing boats complete the scene. The face is a soft white with a gently brushed, worn look at the edges, and the heart is about 14.4cm one way and 13.2cm the other and 2.1cm deep, so it fits a small space.
Hang it in a hallway, a bedroom or a living room, anywhere a touch of seaside calm is welcome. It sits happily among blues, whites and natural textures, and it makes a lovely reminder of summer days for anyone counting the weeks to their next trip to the coast. We think it is a thoughtful Mother's Day gift for a mum who loves the beach, and a warm thank-you gift for a teacher at the end of term, small enough to tuck into a gift bag yet personal enough to stay on show.
A twisted cord loop rises from the top of the heart, so it hangs from a single hook, nail or door knob with nothing else to fit. The sea glass cottage and pebbles stand proud of the face, giving the piece real depth and catching the light. To keep it looking its best, dust it gently with a soft, dry cloth, take a little care around the raised pieces and keep it away from water. For a gift, add a seaside card and a handwritten note, or hang it beside a favourite holiday photograph to start a small wall of beach memories.
