Our Cafes, Shops, Restaurants, Beauticians and Hairdressers need you now more than ever 🖤

Supporting the businesses in your local neighbourhood is so very important…I’m lucky in that this is more a hobby than a business but many others are not so fortunate

They all need our support more than ever …. And be kind, so many are on the receiving end of tired complaints, but things are out of their control as they have to conform to mandates in order to open, and they have to open in order to survive

Life can be a wee bit hard, but it’s also great to be alive

Candle care ……
Keep wax free of matches, wick trimmings, or other flammable materials. Keep wick centered & trimmed to 1/4 in. to prevent smoking & soot build up on container or other items.
Burn only on stable heat resistant surface for not more than 4 hours at a time.
Keep out of drafts.
Discontinue use when only 1/2 in. of wax remains in bottom.
Do not move candle while burning or if wax is hot.
Keep out of reach of children and pets.
Never leave a burning candle unattended.

Enjoy

Well, some may not agree with me, but I’ve seen that candles made out of bamboo boxes are deemed to be ‘the next best thing’ …sorry but that’s a fire hazard that no amount of explanation to me will change my mind so apologies to those requesting it but until they make a bamboo box with a solid metal inner …. ‘That’s a big fat no from me’

By the way, did you know that knowingly using a candle in a flammable (bamboo) vessel could void any fire insurance (insurance company policy dependant)

[Glass isn’t considered flammable by insurance standards I have been advised.]

I learnt something extremely valuable today, crystals …. They look beautiful and some people use them in candles (I have occasionally done so at times) BUT did you know that sometimes the heat can made them explode❗️❗️??
I sure as heck didn’t know that so I’m going to review the size of the crystals and placement in future candles as I place safely for my wonderful clients over looks every time ❗️💕
