Spotlight on.......Attic Creations

Attic Creations is run by Joyce Edwards, who was born and brought up in the North East of Scotland. She has always loved creating and making pretty things since she was a wee girl. Her work room is in the attic of her rural Speyside home, hence the name Attic Creations was born. Taking inspiration from the beautiful countryside surrounding her, Joyce concentrates on making beautiful jewellery, mainly from fresh water pearls, semi-precious stones and sterling silver. Her other love is making handbags and accessories, from pretty upholstery fabric, genuine Harris Tweed and Scottish Tartan.

Joyce can often be spotted around Speyside attending fairs and exhibitions.

Spotlight on......... Twisted Kilts

Twisted Kilts is run by Joy Mann, who has combined her love of Scottish Heritage and passion for needlecraft in the art of kilt making.

Having graduated from the world famous Keith Kilt School in 2007, Joy is a strong advocate for the promotion of quality and workmanship to be found in traditional skills such as kilt making.

She confesses to being 'quite addicted' to kilts and all things tartan and admits that after spending hours hand sewing a kilt she can be quite reluctant to see the finished article taken away!

Joy also specialises in repairs and alterations to heirloom kilts (kilts past down through the generations) and non-traditional kilts, hence the name Twisted Kilts....... traditional kilts with a twist!
