Description
This wooden hanging decoration is cut in the shape of a butterfly and printed with soft watercolour wild flowers, a sweet way to tell a nanny how much she is loved. Across the centre, in flowing black script, it reads "Nanny", with "You are the LOVELIEST" in neat lettering beneath. Pastel sprigs of blue, lilac, pink, yellow and green rise from the wings, a peach bloom opens on the lower left and a tiny bumblebee drifts among the stems, all on a clean white ground. It measures 10cm across and half a centimetre deep, a small, slim piece that is easy to find a spot for.
A pink ribbon threads through a small eye at the top, so it hangs wherever there is a hook, a knob or a handle to tie it to. Hang it from a window catch, a dresser knob, a wardrobe door or a hook in the hallway, and the flowers bring a touch of the garden indoors all year round. We think it makes a thoughtful Mother's Day gift for a grandma who answers to Nanny, tucked in with flowers or a card, and a lovely keepsake from the grandchildren that she will keep on show long after the day.
The butterfly is made of wood with a printed finish on the front, and the back is left plain white, so it looks neat from either side as it turns on its ribbon. Being wood, it is happiest kept somewhere dry, away from steam and splashes. To keep it looking fresh, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth rather than wiping it with water. For a gift that feels finished, wrap it in tissue with the ribbon left loose, or slip it into a bunch of spring flowers so she spots the butterfly first.
