Description
This scented candle carries a cheerful message in a neat off-white ceramic pot, with the words 'Wonderful Teacher' arched over a smiling bumblebee. The little bee has bold black and yellow stripes, soft grey wings and rosy cheeks, and sits above a pink bow, with slender white flowers rising on either side. The pot is round, about 9cm tall and 8cm across, so it sits comfortably on a desk, a shelf or a windowsill without taking over. The ceramic has a smooth, clean finish, and the gentle colours of the design keep it light and friendly rather than loud.
We think of it as a thank-you for a teacher, the kind of gift that says more than a card alone. It suits the end of the school year, a teacher moving on, or any moment when you want to say thanks for patience and kindness in the classroom. It also makes a sweet Mother's Day gift for a mum who teaches. At home it brings a soft glow to the desk where the marking gets done, a bedside table or a bookshelf, and the bee and bow make it a cheerful thing to look at even when the candle is not lit.
The candle comes set in its ceramic pot, so the pot is its holder and there is nothing else to find before you light it. Look after it as you would any candle: burn it on a stable, level surface, keep it away from draughts, curtains, children and pets, and never leave a burning candle unattended. Once it has cooled, wipe the outside of the pot with a soft damp cloth to keep the design fresh. For a gift it needs little more than a ribbon and a handwritten note. Leave it on the teacher's desk on the last day of term and let the little bee say the rest.
