Design Porn: Postcarden


Not only does Postcarden have a name that makes me smile (oh I do love a good pun) it looks like just about the easiest gardening in the world. And, a very cute present indeed. Who wouldn't want a garden in the post?

Choose your design, pop in the pop (with a stamp for a large envelope, but double check with the postie just to make sure) and then wait for your garden goodies to arrive at the destination. Then hurrah! All your friend needs to create their own little garden! They pour in the seeds, add some water and in a few days, they've got themselves a cute little allotment. A yummy cress allotment that you can eat with your dinner. Yay.

It's a classier version of growing cress hair in a pot, and such a unique gift. There's even space for you to write your message - it's just a postcard, after all. The wonderful Postcarden will cost you just £7.50. I think even I'll be able to cope with this kind of gardening.

  1. Love it! Surely even an accidental serial killer of plants like me might be able to keep something like this alive....

  2. Jane, even if we accidentally kill the cress, we can turn it around so everyone can look at the pretty picture :-)

  3. That seems a bit macabre. A pretty picture disguising a cress graveyard? You're dark.

  4. These are ace! I especially love the Crystal Palace alike 'Botanical' card.
