Description
This wooden hanging plaque carries a fluffy cartoon sheep and the words "love ewe", a gentle farmyard pun that reads as "love you" with a smile. The sheep is drawn in soft sketchy lines with a cloud of cream and blush wool, a grey-brown face, wide round eyes and spindly legs mid skip. It is set on a cream front panel with a faint wood grain. A rectangular brown wooden frame runs around the edge as a raised border, so the print sits slightly back like a little shadow box. It measures 21cm high, 19cm wide and 2cm deep, a compact size that suits a small gap on the wall.
It brings a light, cheerful note to a kitchen, hallway, landing, cloakroom or a cosy corner of the living room, and it sits happily alongside country-style or farmhouse decor. Because the wording is a play on "love you", it also makes a sweet small gift tucked in with a card, a simple way to say something warm without saying too much. Its size means it fits on a narrow strip of wall beside a door frame, above a light switch, or among a cluster of other small frames and prints.
The plaque hangs from a twisted cord fixed at the two top corners of the back. It needs only a single picture hook or nail, with the cord forming a neat triangle above the frame. The back is a plain brown board, finished neatly to the edges. To keep it looking its best, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from damp and strong direct sun, which is good practice for any printed wooden piece. For a playful farmhouse look, hang it on its own on a painted wall, or set a woven basket or a jug of dried grasses on a shelf beneath it.
