The Driftwood Designs offering of beautiful objects was born from Lizzie Spikes’ passion for creating colourful illustrations that can be translated to cards, prints, homewares and more.
Lizzie draws on her Welsh heritage and the natural beauty of the country as inspiration for many of her designs, which naturally lends itself to greens and blues, with the lush green of the hills, valleys and woodlands, plus the seemingly endless skies and the sea surrounding the country on three sides.
From cards to aprons, from oven gloves to chopping boards, from lampshades to framed prints – there is something for everyone.
What the colour theme selections have to offer:
Blue:
Including but not limited to:
Daytime seascapes with paler blue seas and skies in the background.
Nighttime seascapes with deep shades of blue in the sky and the water.
A map of the British Isles with the sea areas that are used in the shipping forecast sectioned out in varying shades of blue, reminiscent of patchwork.
A huge sky illustrating all the different types of clouds.
A beautiful, deep blue summer sky with paler blue clouds, which acts as a backdrop for swooping swallows.
Green:
Including but not limited to:
A mountain with lush foliage at the foot and varying strata of green as the eye travels up the elevation, to the peak.
The view of the valleys from a high vantage point, including a quote from Shakespeare in the foreground.
Branches of trees housing native birds.
A deep green background of grass, framing a group of daisies which form the shape of a heart.
Strong green backdrops to illustrated charts identifying different kinds of sheep and fungi.
Despite the provenance and stunning deigns of the Driftwood Designs cards, they are remarkably reasonably priced, most of them available at just £2.40.
