🍸🕯️ A cosy evening of cocktails, pizza & candle making at ✨

Last night we had a lovely little group join us for a relaxed evening of creativity, laughter and making something completely personal to take home.

Everyone created their own 4oz scented candle, choosing their favourite fragrance and adding their own special touch — all while enjoying a cocktail and delicious pizza. 🍕🍹

We loved seeing everyone’s unique creations! 💛

Now we want to know…

🕯️ What scent would you choose if you could design your own signature candle?

Would it be fresh and fruity, sweet and cosy, or something completely different? 👇

Thank you to everyone who joined us — we can’t wait for the next one! ✨

✨ Sometimes the best ideas come from life’s own celebrations… ✨

We recently celebrated our 16th wedding anniversary, and it inspired something special. 🥂❤️

It made me realise that the moments we celebrate—anniversaries, birthdays, new homes, new babies, retirements and everything in between—deserve more than just a gift. They deserve a memory.

So we’ve created a brand new Celebration Collection, starting with our Champagne Rose Anniversary Candle. 🌹🥂

I’d love to know… what’s the next celebration you’re looking forward to? 🎉

Tell me in the comments—it could even inspire the next candle in our collection! 💛✨

If you had £10 to spend, what are you choosing? 👀

☕ Two fancy coffees?
🍕 A takeaway?
🎬 A cinema ticket?
🛍️ A random online purchase you’ll forget about next week?
🕯️ Or… our candle making workshop where you get to create something to take home!
