Gorgeous New Recycled Kilt Cushions

Gorgeous new Recycled Kilt Cushions now available to buy online:

www.girlwithbeads.co.uk

Being of Scottish descent I have fond memories of being put in a kilt as a child to go to family gatherings and barn dances. These tartans are very evocative and perfect for getting cosy by the fire on a cold winter's day.

Each cushion is lovingly made by hand from a woollen kilt with kilt pin detail.
