Still pinching ourselves after yesterday! 🥹✨

Thank you to everyone who stepped through our doors to celebrate with us!

​We wanted to create a space where the fast-paced world stops at the door, and seeing you all wander around our shop with a glass of fizz, chatting away, exploring our collection of candles and the work of our makers was pure joy.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
​Thank you for filling our shop with so much warmth, laughter and kind words on day one! We are lucky to have such supportive family, friends and community around us.

Two weeks - that's how long until we open the doors here in Dornoch! ✨️ We’ve been quietly tending to the details to make sure Gold Moss is more than just a candle shop. We’re creating a space for you to slow down and stay a while, and we can’t wait to finally show you what’s inside.

Was I renovating a 140-year-old building while seven months pregnant? Absolutely. 🙈 My husband, Will, and I have always been a team that thrives on a challenge, but when the dream of opening a Gold Moss shop in Dornoch became a reality, our motivation hit a whole new level.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
​The building sat empty for a few years and needed more than just a lick of paint. 🤯❤️ It took months of planning, painting, dismantling, ripping out floors, befriending an electrician (hi Brian), a plumber (hi Sean), and designing and building custom shelving.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
​Today, the transformation is almost complete. Inside, the shop is looking fresh and the candle studio at the back is operational. We can’t wait to finally welcome you in our shop in Dornoch. 🕯✨️

We’re deep in the renovation zone, turning this space into something special for you 🌼💛 The floors are prepped, the walls refreshed and beautiful lights were recently installed in the windows - the vision is finally coming together. We can’t wait to welcome you in!! ✨️✨️

The first day of spring seems to be the most appropriate moment to say that I’m officially back — balancing mum life and shop opening life! Fuelled by snacks & lots of coffee, we're deep into redecorating and getting ready to open our physical candle shop in Dornoch!!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The website is not open for orders just yet, but trust me… what’s coming will be worth the wait ✨

We’re beyond thrilled to share that 𝗚𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗠𝗼𝘀𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝗰𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗹𝗲 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗽 𝗶𝗻 𝗗𝗼𝗿𝗻𝗼𝗰𝗵 — coming Spring 2026 (as soon as I'm back from maternity leave)!! 🎉
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Expect a welcoming space filled with our collection of Scottish-inspired soy wax candles, reed diffusers (and maybe a few surprises 👀), local charm and a curated collection of unique gifts.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We hope you will join us on this journey — we can’t wait to open the doors and welcome you in. Exciting times ahead 🌿💛

Although we are getting ready to close the website for a few months, there is still time to shop online. The stock is limited, with no reed diffusers left now, so if you have your eye on one of our candles, please don't wait too long! Website is closing on Friday 8th August.

Life lately has been a little hectic, so I thought I'd share some snippets of our wholesome days at Gold Moss. So nice to have had some proper Spring weather for the past few days, I already feel like I'm charged up for May!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. Earlier this year, we had a visitor from Poland, who turned out to be the best box-assembler-order-packer I could have dreamed of. Speaking of my wonderful Mum!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2. We relocated the studio to Sardinia to sip Aperol Spritz by the pool (ok, perhaps that's not true but I do dream of it...and we did visit Sardinia).
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3. Yesterday, Will managed to squeeze nearly 5k glass jars in our little studio.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
4. We had the busiest first half of the year in Gold Moss history, thank you!!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
5. I just can't get enough of these scenes in the studio.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
6. Our Scottish Woodland candle was featured in Homes&Interiors Scotland.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
7. There's always a moment for a coffee date with Layla.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
8. Very satisfying stack of assembled boxes.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
9. Me in my natural environment!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
10. My spelling skills definitely work with the universal phonetic alphabet. Every time I get a giggle when these words just randomly pop into my head!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
11. Just one of the evenings preparing your orders.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
12. We had some groundwork done in front of the studio, so hopefully, by the summer, we will have a lovely spot outside to take a break.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
13. Lots of candles are flying out to our *most incredible* stockists every month - we're so grateful they keep choosing our products!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
14. If you are still reading this, congratulations! I'll leave a very aesthetic photo of me unpacking one of the recent pallet deliveries. 🩷
