I love Christmas, on one hand I wish the build up didn't really begin until December but I know that is a battle I could never hope to win. On the other hand I don't feel even remotely guilty about dropping the odd Baileys into my coffee from mid-November onwards.
I have always really loved the idea that when you gift a candle you are really giving a gift of time - time to relax and unwind. Much more than a jar of wax, candle gifts offer the recipient permission to just slow down and be still, to savour the moment.
This year my gift range has grown quite a bit including two very special collaborations with Northern businesses that are the perfect complement to my products. I've written a roundup of gifting options available now from my online store. I have gifts for all budgets and that something special to treat your favourite fragrance lover with this Christmas.
And don't forget, for every gift you buy from my online store, a donation is made in support of the Cumbria Wildlife Trust. This means that any gifts you buy from me also help support the wonderful team who volunteer their time to protect the Cumbrian landscape and its wildlife inhabitants for future generations to enjoy.
