So I have embraced the power of AI to create some settings for my candles. It’s scary how accurately the robot interpreted what was in my head. Featured here is my best-selling Christingle Candle. It’s orange, cinnamon and clove. Takes me back to my teaching days when my classes made Christingles. Imagine 30+ children armed with knives and apple corers! I always needed a stiff drink afterwards once there were no lost fingers! You can find Christingle on my Folksy Shop https://folksy.com/shops/spiritandflame

Not a bad spot for a day’s selling…

So I finally joined the dark side and have an online presence for my candles! I think I’ve spent so much time on screens during my education career it was a psychological block selling online… but…folks are loving the candles and want more, so I have joined Folksy. It’s like Etsy but for UK crafters and it seems a lovely platform to showcase all sorts of crafts. I’ve only put a few candles on there at the moment, but my full range will be available really soon. You can find my Folksy Shop here:

Excited to be here for the first time. I’m fully stocked with candles and wax melts after a busy few weeks preparing for “candle season”.

One of the loveliest things about making candles is the testing process which happens with every new batch, and when trying out new fragrances. Tonight’s is Beachcomber one of my new ones. A mix of the seaside, juniper and cedarwood.

Project flowers! Our old flowers used to decorate our candle stall are a bit tatty, so we’re going to try drying some, using silica gel. I think the flowers have to be covered completely but I’ll give it a go. Now just need to wait a week and see how they’re doing. I’m sure the bees won’t mind me cutting a few🐝Plenty left 🌺
