Bring a bit of Scotland home

Visiting Edinburgh Scotland for the first time, we had a wonderful time walking the cobblestone streets, admiring the architecture, having a pint in the pub and exploring its castles and cathedrals. Naturally, photography helps to preserve those memories. Shopping for a bit of the culture to bring home will too.

The Scots are known for the colorful plaids that traditionally represent different clans, woven into woolen kilts or warm scarves. Today a dizzying array of plaids sold on soft, cozy scarves and wraps make it very difficult to choose one — or two or three. What will match my winter coat? What will my daughter like? They are all so beautiful!

A glimpse into this basket of wool scarves in an Edinburgh shop reveals the many choices in Scottish plaids.

I design it. You shop for it. How easy is that?

The vibrant colors of spring flowers inspired me to create these fresh new designs, and artisans at VIDA are making them into 35″ square silk scarves. Place your order online at

The Courtney scarf is colorful with a more photographic approach.

I’m looking forward to seeing which design is more popular. I need one of each!
