Description
This boxed wooden plaque gives Mum a few heartfelt words in a frame she can keep close by. A raised square panel sits inside a deep white wooden box frame, set against a soft lilac-grey backing. Across the top, "Mum" is written in gold script over a lilac brushstroke, and below it run the words "All that I am or ever hope to be I owe to you". A small illustrated figure in spotted trousers strides along carrying a big bunch of flowers, with tiny gold hearts and stars scattered all around and a fine gold border framing the panel. Beneath it, a separate line on the backing reads "Love you always". The plaque measures 14.6cm tall, 13cm wide and 2.5cm deep, a compact size that fits easily on a busy shelf.
Because the frame is deep, the plaque stands on its own on a shelf, bedside table, dressing table or mantelpiece, and the hanger on the back lets it go on the wall instead. It sits nicely in a bedroom, hallway or living room, and its soft white, lilac and gold colouring is gentle enough to suit most rooms. We think it makes a thoughtful Mother's Day gift for Mum, the sort of present she will keep out on display long after the day itself has passed.
The box frame is made from wood in a clean white finish, and the back is closed with a brown board held by small tabs, with the hanger fixed near the top. To keep it fresh, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from damp. For a finished Mother's Day gift, give it alongside a card and a bunch of her favourite flowers, a sweet echo of the bouquet in the illustration, and let the words do the rest.
