Burns Night - 25th January

Burns Night itself marks the anniversary of Robert Burns' birth on 25 January 1759 and the traditional Burns supper is an evening event that celebrates his life and work. 

History can trace its origins back to nine of Burns' close friends who decided to get together to mark the fifth anniversary of their friend's death.

The first Burns supper was held in 1801 and in the 200+ years since then new traditions have been added but the sentiment remains the same:

Everyone enjoys a hearty Burns Night meal (which includes haggis, neeps and tatties, rounded off with drams of whisky), some of Burns' poems and songs are recited and tributes are made to the great Bard.

So if you are going to a Burns Night supper or event, why not have a look at my many tartan accessories.

I have shoe clips, hair clips, larger fascinators and my new little tartan ribbon ruffle brooches.

Which are just perfect for pinning onto a dress, shawl or jacket.

They can also have a clip instead if you prefer..

All my tartan accessories are available in a wide range of the most popular licenced Clan tartans.
