I honestly end up with wax burners in some truly random places 🤣🤦‍♀️

Yes that is my printer! Oh well sometimes you’ve just got to do what works!

Please tell me I’m not the only one?!

What does Easter mean to you?

For us, it’s Easter egg hunts with Theo, a bit of chocolate, and those little moments that feel like magic.

But there’s also something about this time of year that always feels like a reset.

I’m not particularly religious, but Easter and spring together bring that sense of renewal. More than New Year ever does for me. Lighter mornings, flowers starting to bloom, lambs in the fields… everything feels like it’s beginning again.

And that’s what I wanted to capture with this collection.

🍫 Chocolate Box - rich, comforting, indulgent
🌅 Sun Rise - soft, uplifting, full of new beginnings

Because Easter isn’t just one thing…
and neither are you.

These have been poured in small batches for Easter, so once they’re gone, they won’t be restocked for a while.

Packing orders this evening reminded me how much I love Spiced Rose.

It was one of the first three scents I ever created, although back then I wasn’t even thinking about selling candles. I was just experimenting and having fun with fragrance oils.

One of tonight’s orders had two Spiced Rose candles in it, which made me smile.

So now I've finished packing I've lit myself one and I'm sat enjoying it with a nice glass of wine.

Some scents will always be a favourite.

Do you have a scent you always come back to?

Flowers fade. Chocolates disappear.
But scent lingers a little longer.

With Mother’s Day just around the corner, I realised some of my favourite scents make beautiful alternatives to the traditional gifts.

🌸 Bouquet – flowers in full bloom
🍫 Chocolate Box – rich, indulgent sweetness
💜 Breathe Deep – a calm, relaxing moment
🌹 Spiced Rose – soft floral warmth

So this week I’ve taken 30% off these scents to create a little Mother’s Day Edit.

And to make things easier if you’re ordering as a gift, I’ll upgrade all orders to 1st Class delivery for FREE.

✨ Order by Wednesday evening and I’ll dispatch by Thursday so they arrive in time for Mother’s Day.

A small gift… with scent that lasts far longer than flowers.

We’ve been a little quiet… because we needed a proper pause.
A bit of sunshine, a reset, and a reminder that it’s okay to step back when life feels full ✨

We headed to Morocco for some much-needed R&R and it was exactly what our little family needed.
But we’re home now. Rested, grateful, and easing back into things…

And yes, there’s a whisper of Black Friday magic coming 👀🖤
(Perfect timing if you’re craving a calm moment for yourself.)
