Description
This wooden standing plaque puts a grinning donkey on your shelf, with four cheeky words printed across its base: "such a smart ass". The donkey is cut to its own outline, from the tips of its tall, pink-lined ears to the tuft of dark hair between them, and the sketchy hand-drawn style illustration gives it wide eyes, a pink nose and a broad, sheepish smile. Under the figure, a white block base carries a blue panel with the words in a relaxed handwritten script. The plaque is 15cm tall, 8cm wide and 2.2cm deep, small enough to tuck between books.
Because it is freestanding, it needs no wall, no nails and no hook: set it on a bookshelf, a desk, a windowsill or a mantelpiece and it stands on its own base. It suits a home office where a little humour helps the day along, a kitchen shelf or a hallway table where visitors will spot it on the way in. The blue panel brings a fresh note of colour against white, wood or grey. As a gift, it is a lighthearted way to tell someone you appreciate their quick wit, and the joke needs no explanation.
The donkey figure is a single flat piece of wood, printed on the front and plain white on the back, and it slots into a groove along the top of the base so it stands upright. The base is a white block with the blue printed panel set on its front face. To keep it looking fresh, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth and keep water and cleaning sprays away from the printed surfaces. For gifting, it needs little more than tissue paper and a card; on a shelf of your own, set it at eye level, where that knowing grin can greet you each morning.
