Festive candles

Are you thinking of doing something different this year for Christmas? May we suggest making your festive table resemble a snowy forest putting your guests, whether friends or family into the party mood.

These Snow Pine Cone Candles twinkle and look fabuous when mixed with the little Pine Cone Tealight Candles. Add a few ivy or holly sprigs and you won’t need to do any more.

They also make excellent gifts for any occasion.
