Bestsellers
These are the designs and formats that customers order most. Some have been in the catalogue since the beginning; others became popular through word of mouth. All are hand-painted in the workshop and personalised with your wording.
1. The Wedding Welcome Sign
Our number-one seller from March through September. A 60x40cm plaque with the couple's names, wedding date, and a welcome message. Hand-lettered in the couple's chosen palette. Most customers match the sign to their wedding colour scheme and display it at the ceremony or reception entrance. After the wedding, it becomes a keepsake for the hallway wall.
From £80. Lead time: 10 to 14 working days.
2. The Christening Name Plaque
A 20x15cm plaque with the baby's name, date of birth or christening, and an optional scripture or blessing. Painted in soft nursery colours. The second-most ordered piece in the catalogue and the one most often bought as a gift by grandparents and godparents.
From £42. Lead time: 7 to 10 working days.
3. The Family Name Plaque
"The Hendersons — est. 2014" style pieces for hallways and porches. Available in a range of sizes from 30x15cm to 60x20cm. Popular as housewarming gifts, anniversary gifts, and Christmas gifts. The design is clean and simple: the family name, sometimes a street name or town, and an established date.
From £36. Lead time: 7 to 10 working days.
4. The Anniversary Keepsake
A plaque marking a wedding anniversary, usually with the couple's names, the wedding date, and the anniversary year. Customers often add a significant place name or a line from a song or poem. The 25th and 50th anniversary versions sell particularly well.
From £48. Lead time: 7 to 10 working days.
5. The Memorial Plaque
Our most carefully made pieces. Memorial plaques carry the name and dates of someone who has died, often with a short verse, a favourite phrase, or a line of poetry. We take particular care with lettering and finish on these pieces because they carry a weight that other plaques do not. Many customers order these for a garden bench, a memorial tree, or a quiet corner of the house.
From £55. Lead time: 10 to 14 working days.
6. The Kitchen Motto Plaque
Small (15x10cm) plaques with humorous or meaningful kitchen phrases. "This kitchen is seasoned with love" and "Tea first, questions later" are the two most popular. These sell well as small gifts, stocking fillers, and impulse purchases at craft fairs. They are our least expensive piece and the one most often bought in multiples.
From £18. Lead time: 5 to 7 working days.
