Candles: Spitalfield Candles and Green & Spring

Oh the drama - high winds last night, lights flickering, perhaps this means a power cut, midnight search for candles, could only find birthday cake candles...etc.
These candles from Green & Spring and Spitalfield Candles will not only light up the room, but smell sweet too - so you feel totally zen while you wait for the power to come back on and try not to mind too much that the freezer is defrosting.

Revitialising candle: 100% natural wax, peppermint, rosemary and fennel essential oils

Green and Spring also make a range of very nice beauty products: shampoo, bath oil, shower foam, skin cream...Green & Spring use herbs and flowers which are native to the British Isles, and have been used in apothecaries for their therapeutic qualities. All products are free of parabens and other nasties.

Spitalfield Candles are made from soya wax from a sustainable source and essential oils - I particularly like the idea of the frankincence and juniper candle (obv).
