25.01.2022 Chilly weather is just a fantastic excuse for a hearty fire and staying inside! We hope your start to the week has been lively and you can spend your evening with feet up relaxing - if youre taking the opportunity during these quiet nights to light a candle, just remember if its the first burning to keep it alight for 3-4 hours for a full burn, unless youre using one of our Studio candles then an hour is just perfect Looking for the smell of a fire in your house? Try ou...r Beach Bonfire scent - the perfect wintry fragrance. . . . #soywaxcandles #candlelover #smallbusinessowner #makersgonnamake #winterfire #warmlife #relaxationlife #relaxationlifestyle #supportsmallbusiness See more

21.01.2022 We are having a little exciting break from Sunday Markets until the 15th of March - well be back full of energy for the Old Bus Depot Markets that weekend! Our online store will still be open but any orders placed from today will be processed when we return.

20.01.2022 Another long weekend has us enjoying some quality chill time with our Branch Manager Louis enjoying a bit of rain gazing. We are taking a very brief break from pouring candles, but dont worry well be back shipping orders on Monday night! We hope you take time this weekend to enjoy catching up with family and friends, or kicking off a little DIY project and make your house, your home.

20.01.2022 Theres something relaxing about hand pouring candles and making them from scratch - melting the natural soy wax (with a little help from the melter, soo much easier than using the stove top!), adding in the right amount of fragrance, stirring slowly (gives time to breath!) and, finally, patiently pouring with an unwavering hand. Not only does it give some time to slow the mind, its also a great feeling of accomplishment at the end Ive purposefully not shown the pouring table- its a bit of a mess at the moment!! Cleaning up and organising things is up to future-me to do . . . #soywaxcandles #handpouredsoycandles #makersgonnamake #makersmovement #relaxation #candlelovers #smallbuisness

Our new scent Beach House takes James back to his childhood Magic Beach on the Mornington Peninsula, as does Alison Lesters book Magic Beach! Where do our fragrances take you?

01.01.2022 The Old Bus Depot Markets are still on tomorrow and we will be there; however, please refrain from attending this Sunday if you are displaying flu-like symptoms or have traveled recently.
