Blue Isle’s Pick of the Month: December

THE LUXURY SCENTED CANDLE COLLECTION

So this might not be a piece of furniture or a statement piece, but it didn’t seem right to let December pass by without discussing something warm and cosy. And the scents work so well with the festive season. It was impossible to ignore them.

Each candle in this range is hand-poured in Scotland, using 100% slow-burning soy wax, a non-toxic, environmentally friendly substance. They are made from 100% compostable plant material and increase the burning time of the candle by around 50% compared to paraffin based candles.

They come in a heavy ‘whisky tumbler’ style glass jars for a smart, sophisticated look and the quality of the fragrance ensures that they really exude luxury.

They come in three wonderful aromas, so there’s sure to be one that takes your fancy. They’re simple and sophisticated, so get ready to want them all!

French Lime & Basil

Deliciously aromatic citrus, with undertones of peppery basil make this Lime & Basil candle a classic home scent, which is incredibly relaxing. The soy wax is so soft that you can even use it as massage oil when it’s warm. Amazing!

 

White Tea & Ginger

If you prefer something a little different, there’s even our White Tea and Ginger luxury candle. A delicate blend of white tea leaves and soothing ginger. It’s delightfully fresh and alluring, and a simple yet elegant addition to any room.

Pomegranate & White Fig

A sultry blend of exotic fresh fig and pomegranate.

 

And don’t forget that once you’re done, the glass container can be used as a drinks tumbler!

‘Tis the season… TO DECORATE

Christmas doesn’t just have to be about over-indulging and writing endless amounts of Christmas cards. Throw all that to one side for a moment, and turn your home into a cosy bubble of festivity!  Then you can down, over-indulge and dig into the tin of Quality Street.

We’ve put together a few things to make a little festive scene for you (above) and it’s getting us excited for Christmas! First up, what kind of festive scene would this be if there wasn’t a single candle in sight? There’s something so calming and cosy about a candle burning away in the corner, and even better if it’s a strongly scented one too. We’ve opted for the White Tea & Ginger candle to get us thinking of all those gingerbread houses waiting to be made. A candle is also a perfect way to create some soft atmospheric lighting, that’s not too harsh or bright.

Pine Cone Bookends

Pine Cone Candle Holder

We’ve then accessorised and given our candles a touch of glamour, by placing them in our pine cone candle holder. Nothing says Autumn and Winter like pine cones on the fireplace. And then to compliment that lovely piece, we’ve added our pine cone bookends to keep all our Christmas reading together. Who doesn’t love matching items to complete a design? Why not add a bit of tinsel or ribbon around your candles and accessories to give it that extra Chistmas-sy feel. We also think this silver hammered bowl (below) is a great piece to store some of those pine cones… or Quality Street.
