Description
This cheerful scented candle wears a woolly, wide-eyed sheep on its label, with the pun "smells baa-rilliant" written across the top in a loose, handwritten style. Beneath it, the label names the scent as vanilla and tonka, a warm, soft pairing that suits a candle with this much good humour. The wax is cream and sits in a clear jar, so its pale colour shows all the way round, while a blue border frames the illustration and gives the front a crisp, fresh edge. It is a 250g candle, standing 11cm tall and 8cm across, a neat size that sits happily on a shelf or side table. A round, natural-toned lid finishes it off.
We like it on a kitchen windowsill, a living room bookshelf or the corner of a desk, anywhere a smile is as welcome as a little scent. The sheep's goofy grin and the farmyard pun make it an easy choice when you want a gift with some personality, and because the label faces outwards, the illustration can be enjoyed from across the room while the candle burns. Its compact size suits a busy mantelpiece or a coffee table, and with the lid in place it slips neatly into a gift bag.
The candle has a single wick set in the cream wax, and the lid rests flat on top between burns, keeping dust off the surface and the jar looking tidy when it is not lit. For a clean burn, trim the wick before each lighting, stand the candle on a stable, level surface away from draughts and anything that could catch, and never leave a burning candle unattended. A soft, dry cloth keeps the outside of the jar and the lid looking fresh. As a present it needs very little help: the sheep does the talking, so a ribbon and a handwritten tag are all it takes.
