As a final “shedding of skin” at the tail end of Year of the Snake, I am offering 20% off site-wide for the final days of January. This includes any remaining scented candles from Blanc + Nero’s Christmas collection. It will be your last opportunity to acquire a Sticky Gingerbread Pudding, Fireside Fables or Sugar Plum + Mulled Wine scented candle until later in the year, as any remaining festive scents will be removed from the website at the end of the month (if not sold-out prior). All other offerings will remain available post sale pending availability.
This is part of a process I have personally been going through, of peeling back layers, releasing energy and creating space for rejuvenation. It is something I wish for all areas of my life, including my home—and now it is time to complete the cycle with Venus in Scorpio.
Please feel free to share with other enthusiasts of rustic gothic interiors, crystals, candles and vintage/antique treasures.
This is one step towards the next chapter. It is a continuation of the story many of you have come to know here but with the introduction of fresh ideas, revitalised energy and an unwavering spirit with renewed perspective.
Thank you immensely for your presence in this space.
Please enjoy 20% off all offerings using the following discount code at checkout.
Discount code: SHED20
