Welcome to LoullyMakes
- an online emporium of meaningful accessories, lovingly handmade in Scotland.
Let me say "Hello!" and introduce myself - I am Louise Nicolson ( aka Loully, to friends ! )
Originally taught to sew at home by my Mum, pattern, print and texture have remained the enduring focus of my creativity, and since graduating from the Scottish College of Textiles, I have relished a spectrum of retail experience from youthful days with Liberty of London, to the ongoing successes of our family-run Highlandwear business, Gordon Nicolson Kiltmakers.
Inspired with such glorious traditional fabrics at my fingertips, LoullyMakes was borne from a combined need to utilise our kiltmaking remnants, reduce waste and to let creative ideas become reality.
Here I offer a focused range of beautiful, useful pieces that I love to wear myself and to have around me, day-to day.
Each simply constructed design is the result of my own insight and development. Each item is carefully handmade by our small, skilled team, here in Scotland.
Select individual pieces are available from our family business, Gordon Nicolson Kiltmakers and on occasion you can also find me selling from Artisan Fairs or a "Pop-Up Shop". #GNKfamily

Description
Heart-shaped herb pillow, lovingly handmade in our own exclusive design , Commemorative Flodden tartan. These scented sachets are backed with a beautiful Liberty Art Fabric (which may differ from that pictured) and finished with a velvet ribbon loop and decorative button – so can be hung from coat hangers, drawer handles, bedsteads , coat hooks, Christmas Trees, anywhere you like really.
Each heart is filled with my own recipe of dried lavender , chamomile and hops – a combination which acts as a relaxing fragrance in the home. Enliven the scent occasionally by shaking the mix inside the heart, or place near a warm radiator for a fragrance boost .
If hung near wardrobes, closets or drawers, this scented herb mix will also keep moths away from your favourite linens and garments !
NB DO NOT PLACE NEAR ANY NAKED FLAME OR DIRECT HEAT SOURCE.
The Flodden Tartan commemorates those who fought, those who died on both Scottish and English sides of the battle in 1513, as well as acknowledging the far-reaching effects of the battle for the generations who followed.
The colours woven here will forever lock together the two sides involved in the battle which took the lives of so many and devastated the lives of so many more for generations;
Red & Gold – represent the Lion Rampant of Scotland,
Green & White – represent the English Tudor colours,
Grey & Brown – represent the ground they fought for and where those defeated still lie.
Designed by Gordon Nicolson to commemorate the 500th anniversary of the Battle of Flodden.
All tartans are 100% wool kiltweight woven tartans.
