Description
This wooden butterfly decoration carries a message many mums will be proud to keep close, printed in black across a white face framed with soft pastel flowers. The word 'Mum' sits at the centre in flowing script, and beneath it reads 'I am a STRONG woman because a strong woman RAISED me.' Watercolour-style blooms in pink, coral, peach and blue gather in the corners of each wing, with a tiny bumblebee hidden among the petals on the lower left. The edges and the plain back are a gentle peach pink, so it looks finished from every angle. It measures 14cm across, 11cm high and 3cm deep, a compact size for a shelf or mantel.
We see it on a mantelpiece, a bedside table, a windowsill or a dressing table, anywhere she will catch the words as she passes. It stands upright on its own along its flat lower edge, so there is no hook to find and nothing to fix to the wall, and at 3cm deep it sits happily on a narrow shelf. As a Mother's Day gift it says what can be hard to put into words, and it is just as welcome on a bookcase beside family frames as on the mantel itself.
The butterfly is made of wood, with the floral design and lettering printed across the front and its curved edges and back in a smooth peach pink. Care is simple: dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from damp, which is good practice for any printed wooden piece. To give it, wrap it in tissue with a handwritten card, or set it beside her morning cup of tea on Mother's Day so the words are the first thing she reads.
