Description
This set of three mini scented candles brings a little of the countryside indoors, with a different field creature on each jar. The amber jar carries a bumblebee resting on soft pink blossom, the sage green jar has a long-eared hare gazing out, and the dusky pink jar shows a small mouse among ripe blackberries. Each illustration is finely detailed, down to the fur on the hare and the stripes on the bee, and the tinted jars let the candlelight glow through in warm shades. Every jar comes with its own pale, natural-toned lid, and together the set measures 7.3cm high, 17.7cm wide and 6.3cm deep, a neat fit for a narrow shelf.
Being small, these candles suit the spots a larger candle would crowd: a bedside table, a dressing table or a windowsill. You could keep all three together as a row on the mantelpiece, or spread them through the house so the bee, the hare and the mouse each have a room of their own. The soft amber, sage and pink sit well with natural wood, linen and cream, and bring a gentle country feel to a kitchen dresser or a hallway table. As a set of three illustrated candles, they make a charming gift, and they share out easily as small treats.
The wax is a blend of 70% soy wax and 30% paraffin wax, and the burn time is 14 hours. The lids keep dust off the wax between uses. For an even burn, let the first lighting run until the top has melted across, trim the wick before relighting, and stand each candle on a level surface away from draughts and curtains. Never leave a burning candle unattended. Once cool, wipe the jars with a soft, damp cloth. When the wax is finished, a clean jar makes a pretty home for hair grips or a few sprigs of dried flowers.

Do the candles come with lids?
Yes, each jar comes with its own pale, natural-toned lid, which keeps dust off the wax between uses and gives the jar a tidy finish when it is not lit.
How should I look after the jars?
Once the candle has cooled, wipe the outside with a soft, damp cloth. Never leave a burning candle unattended, and keep it away from curtains and draughts.
