What We Have Been Watching Lately

/ No Comments
Our house is a busy old house.

If there’s one thing that you can’t have enough of, that’s candles! I love candles. They are perfect for filling the home with my favourite smells throughout the summer and nice to see flickering away on the fireplace come the colder winter evenings. I don’t need any excuse to buy a candle and now that I have recently discovered the fab new summer ranges of Bolsius candles, garden citronella and holiday dreams. I think I may have to add even… View Post
