Description
This festive mantle plaque pairs a watercolour-style robin with the words "There's no place like home for Christmas", lettered in white across a deep red block. The robin perches at the top among sprigs of pale green pine and small brown pine cones, with a red and white striped ribbon bow tied just beneath its breast. The first lines are set in a neat typewriter-style print, and the word Christmas sweeps across the bottom in a flowing white script. It measures 13.7cm tall, 13.4cm wide and 2.7cm deep, small enough for a narrow shelf.
As its name suggests, it is at home on the mantelpiece, where the robin and greenery bring a cosy, traditional feel to the fireplace through December. It works just as well on a hallway console to greet visitors, on a windowsill, a bookcase or a dresser shelf. The warm red sits happily alongside classic Christmas decorations in red, green and white, and the robin adds a gentle touch of winter wildlife. We think it makes a lovely small Christmas gift for anyone who loves the festive weeks at home.
The plaque is built on a chunky block with a flat base, so it stands on its own with no wall fixing or stand needed. The robin and pine top is a separate cut-out layer set against the face of the block, which gives the design a little depth, and the striped bow is a real ribbon bow rather than a printed one. To keep it looking its best, dust it gently with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from damp and direct heat. Stand it at one end of the mantel with a garland of greenery and a few pine cones, or set it beside the presents under the tree for a cheerful welcome.
