White Company Orange Grove Candle Review and my twinkly lights!

11/12/201206/04/2015

I was sent a beautiful signature scented Orange Grove Candle from The White Company as a wee Christmas blogging gift.

I LOVE candles and while not a massive fan of strongly scented ones, the delicate fresh and sweet scent of this one is really beautiful.

It comes beautifully presented in this lovely box (which my son soon claimed as a treasure box) and would make a gorgeous gift.

While photographing the candle I made use of Elizabeth Halford’s photography tutorial on getting your Christmas lights to twinkle.

So there you have it – my perfect combination of a beautiful candle and white twinkly Christmas lights! Bliss!!!

Disclaimer – I was provided with this scented candle for review, but all opinions expressed and the white twinkly lights are my own!

A review of The French Rooms in Bushmills – Bon Apetit!

When we come up to stay at the north coast, near the Giants Causeway, it is always interesting to look out for new things happening in the village of Bushmills. New shops and restaurants are always eagerly anticipated, and where possible we like to support local businesses. I had spotted The French Rooms a few…

Have yourself a Cookson Christmas – classic tv drama – a review

This Christmas I am pleased to have the opportunity to share the news of a Cookson Christmas on the Drama channel. As an avid reader growing up, I loved to curl up with a book on a Sunday afternoon (with my back to the radiator!). I was that child happiest with her nose in a…
