Step into Autumn

I love autumn… it’s my favourite time of the year but sitting here in this unseasonal, warm sunshine is confusing the life out of not only me but the llamas in the field opposite, the plants and even Tallullah, the workshop cat!

Not complaining though… it’s a chance to get some warmth to the bones before winter sets in, and it’ll be on us before we know it!

This is traditionally our busiest time of the year and this year is no exception… in fact we’re busier than ever. As well as getting plenty of winter fragrances poured so we can get plenty of stock out to our retailers, we’ve had a tremendous response to our exclusive online offer of 30% off our three new fragrances, Verbena & Clary Sage, Neroli & Rose Geranium and Cedar & Pepperwood. Thanks to all those who ordered and we’d love to know what you think of them, so please drop us a line.

In early June we were approached by the team behind the hugely successful West End production, Wicked. This year they’re celebrating five years and to celebrate commissioned us to produce an exclusive Wicked candle which could be given to all their production team, cast members and friends of the show. After much ‘toing and froing’ early this month we finally produced over 750 glass jar candles featuring our Nocturne fragrance, with the line ‘5 Spellbinding Years’ across the front – a great commission and rather apt given that we’re based in Pendle Witch country!

X Factor continues to be a major talking point and many of our customers have seen our glass jar candles on the ITV2 show, The Xtra Factor. Late last month we supplied the judges houses with more candles and last week sent more to the finalists house (top secret location!) Keep a look out for them in the coming weeks.

Right time to get out of the sun and back into the workshop… we’re re-configuring the layout for the arrival of our new packaging which should start to filter through to stores mid October… so exciting!

Until next time…
