Mum Pastel Floral Butterfly Wooden Mantel Decoration - White

This wooden butterfly decoration is made for Mum, with a few heartfelt words set right at its centre. The word 'Mum' is written in a flowing gold-coloured script, and beneath it, in simpler gold lettering, sit the words 'never forget how loved you are'. Around the message, the butterfly's wings are filled with a watercolour-style floral print of soft pink and cream roses, dusty blue blooms, green leaves and little sprigs of blue berries, all on a clean white ground. It stands 12cm tall and 3cm deep, a size that suits a mantelpiece or shelf without crowding it.

Because it is thick enough to stand on its own, it needs no hooks or fixings: simply set it on a mantelpiece, a bedside table, a dressing table or a windowsill, where the soft colours sit happily alongside a framed print or a vase of flowers. We think it makes a thoughtful gift for Mum, whether she lives in a cottage full of blooms or a flat with a single favourite shelf. It is the kind of keepsake she will glance at every morning, a quiet reminder in her own home of just how much she means to the people who love her.

The butterfly is made from wood, with smooth white edges that follow every curve of its wings, while the floral design and gold-coloured words cover its front face. To keep it looking its best, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth, and if it needs a little more, wipe it gently with a barely damp cloth and dry it straight away. Keep it away from water and steam, as you would any wooden piece. For gifting, we like to wrap it in tissue with a handwritten card, so that the words on the butterfly are the first thing she reads when the paper comes away.
