Scottish Hampers - Velvet Antlers hamper blog Hampers, Scottish life and adventures with Scottish food.

To make our range of hampers, we travelled all over Scotland seeking out the best Scottish food, the best people who produce it, and the best knowledge about it. Our blog charts our adventures with Scottish food.

When not creating gorgeous hampers, we also climb rocks, take photographs, write and enjoy the highland life. You can read about all of this on the Velvet Antlers Blog...

What is Scottish style? competition

We’ve obviously spent a fair bit of time thinking about this recently so we could try and perfect our hampers. But we really wondered what other people think good Scottish Style is.

So here is a wee challenge for ya (with a wee beauty of a prize if you do well!):

Comment on this post and tell us of a simple thing, thought, icon, image or phrase that characterises modern Scottish style, right now, in 2007.

The best comment by December 1st will win a Wee Beauty hamper – so get thinking! We’ll announce it on here.

Quite apart from the prize, we’d really appreciate the comments, just to discuss it and hear other folks thoughts. We want to see if we’ve got it right, and figure out how we can tweak our styling to make it even cooler!

Clair + Dave, good luck with this wee venture, I hope you get a lot from it. I made hampers for Xmas last year, there were well recieved, a good pressie for people who have everything. Ive linked you on my blog also, I dont think many people read it, but maybe someone will make the link. As for your Scottish Style question.... I think one of the most stylish things is the good food, specifically seafood, like the oysters at Loch Fyne, or Spey Salmon, Thats whats springs to my mind when asked about Scottish Style

Hey, hows it going? I think scottish style is about mutabilitiy. Everything is changing - seasonally, yearly, geographically, financially or whatever... I think a phrase describing Scottish stlye should reflect this somehow.

Cheers

a bit late maybe, but scottish style always seems to me to be quality without artifice or pretence ... no?

good luck with velvet antlers!

The image i get in my mind when i think of scotland is a raw, wild, untamed, but beautiful place. I think the food also reflects this.
