Folding Cottage Cards
Driftwood Designs, the beloved Welsh brand known for its vibrant and heartfelt creations, has launched an enchanting new product: folding cottage cards. These innovative cards combine the joy of a greeting with the charm of a keepsake, transforming from a flat card into a delightful, freestanding miniature cottage.
Available in two beautifully crafted designs, the cards are as functional as they are adorable. Each features chimneys, peep-through windows, and an opening door that reveals fully illustrated interiors brimming with character. Whether it’s for a birthday, anniversary, thank you, or apology, these cards are designed to brighten the recipient’s day and earn a lasting spot on their mantlepiece.
The first design, Awel y Môr (Sea Breeze), evokes the serenity of the seaside. This white cottage is adorned with surfboards, pebbles, and a resident seagull perched outside. Inside, a cozy scene unfolds with a vibrant vase of flowers on a table, a warm range with a kettle, and a cat basking in the glow—details that capture the essence of a coastal retreat.
The second design, Plas Bach (Small Place), celebrates the charm of the countryside. Surrounded by colorful flowers, a blackbird, and pecking chickens, this cottage invites you to peek inside at a blazing fireplace, a traditional Welsh dresser, and a kitchen table topped with an inviting pot of tea.
Crafted with care in Wales from recycled card, these eco-friendly cards are both sustainable and practical, with space on the base for a personal message. Priced at just £4.00, they offer incredible value as both a greeting and a decorative ornament that recipients will cherish long after the occasion.

The creative force behind these cards is Lizzie Spikes, Driftwood Designs’ talented artist. With a background in fine art and sceneography, Lizzie’s passion for stage design shines through in the intricate, scene-setting details of each cottage. Her love for storytelling through illustration brings these tiny homes to life, making them a perfect blend of art and function.
Driftwood Designs, founded by Lizzie and her business partner Becky Barratt, has grown from a home-based venture to a thriving business with three shops in Wales and a bustling online store. Their range, which includes homewares, prints, and more, showcases Lizzie’s colorful illustrations, bringing Welsh creativity into everyday life.
These folding cottage cards are a testament to Driftwood Designs’ commitment to innovation, sustainability, and accessible art. Whether you’re sending a heartfelt message or looking for a unique gift, these charming creations are sure to leave a lasting impression.
