Let me introduce you to two of the cutest little decorative wooden plaques that could ever reside in your kitchen. The first three images are of â€œFrench Toastâ€ and the last three are of the lovely â€œLittle Miss Jelly.â€

â€œFrench Toastâ€ comes complete with a hand-painted face and a signature French moustache while â€œLittle Miss Jellyâ€ comes with a sweet tiny bow. Yum!

**Implications** - These plaques are an [adorable kitschy piece](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baked-goods-plushies) that could easily bring a smile to any [French toast](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maple-french-toast-bites) and [jelly sandwich](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jell-o-2) lovers. The wooden plaques' adorable facial expressions are what makes these plaques even more cute. Now if only there was a Mr. Peanut Butter in the mix.
