Description
This rectangular metal plaque carries a cheeky bit of wordplay, spelled out in bold raised capitals: THERE IS NO F IN SWEARING. The letters and the border are polished to a bright silver shine and sit against a black ground, so the message reads clearly from across a room. Each end finishes in a small rounded tab with a fixing hole, giving it the look of an old-fashioned door or workshop sign. It measures 18.9cm across, 4.8cm high and 0.7cm deep, a neat size that fits on a door, above a workbench or beside a light switch without taking over the wall.
It is a natural fit for the places where the odd word slips out: a garage, a workshop, a home bar, a games room or the study door of someone who has heard the joke before and still laughs. Being so slim, it also works on a kitchen cupboard or pantry door where a larger sign would feel crowded. As a gift, it suits dads with a dry sense of humour and makes a fun Father's Day present that takes up very little wall space. It is a good choice for a new home too, a small first sign for anyone who has just got the keys.
The front is polished to a bright silver, with the black ground filling the space around the letters, while the back is left flat and plain in a soft matt grey so it sits snugly against the surface. To put it up, fix a small screw through the hole in each end tab; on plasterboard, a wall plug for each screw holds it firm. Care is simple: dust it with a soft dry cloth, or wipe it with a damp cloth and dry it to keep the shine bright. Hang it at eye level by the door so every visitor reads it on the way in.
