Winter Dark Ness

26 January 2011








It's views like these which are the inspiration for the new Dark Ness greeting card from Tweedmatters. The Harris Tweed colours are lovely and the sky is starry. These magical winter scenes are as typical of the Scottish North Highlands as the heathery slopes and deserted white beaches of our long, summer days, so I thought it was about time to offer an evocative card depicting our lovely landscapes at this time of year. The winter might be long and dark, but the night skies are really beautiful.



The Dark Ness card is on sale at an amazing £3.99, including UK p&p

When I said "Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.."


Happy New Year!

Yes, it's been snowing and snowing and snowing. The good news is that postal deliveries seem, finally, to have got back to something like normal. We got an unusual number of cards after Christmas this year which had been posted weeks before. I think all our dispatched collages and cards made it OK. Either that or Tweedmatters' customers are such nice people that they don't complain, even when things don't go according to plan. If things took longer than usual, I'm sorry, but I hope everybody had a nice Christmas in any case.

Postal charges are due to go up quite a bit in the spring. In the meantime, why not stock up on cards and gifts? The prices currently displayed at www.tweedmatters.com will be pegged until the postage increases are introduced.
