Description
This little wooden house decoration carries a much-loved line across its front: home is where the heart is, lettered in soft charcoal grey with home and heart in capitals. The house is cut in a classic outline, with a pitched roof and a small chimney, and finished in a warm, light grey with a gentle wood-grain look. The roof and the front door are left in natural wood and sit slightly raised, and a pale heart marks the door. Two tall paned windows, a leafy sprig on either side and a scattering of tiny hearts finish the scene. It stands 16.5cm tall, 14cm wide and 3cm deep, a size that suits a shelf or a sill without crowding it.
We like it on a hallway shelf or console table, where it greets everyone who comes through the door, but it is as happy on a mantelpiece, a bedside table, a kitchen windowsill or a bookcase beside favourite photographs. The soft grey and natural wood sit easily with most schemes, from crisp white walls to warmer neutrals, sage greens and cottage-style rooms. Its words make it a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves the place they live and the people in it, and its compact size makes it easy to wrap.
It is made from wood, with the roof and door layered over the grey front to give the little house a touch of depth and shadow. At 3cm deep it stands upright on its own, so there are no fixings to worry about: simply set it where you want it. To keep it looking fresh, dust it with a soft dry cloth, and keep it away from damp, as you would any wooden piece. Group it with a jug of dried flowers or a stack of books for an easy shelf display, or give it on its own as a gentle reminder of what home means.
