We're delighted that renown luxury and fun Candlemaker Lily Flame are now at Home and Bay. Lily Flame began when owner Jo Nicholls started making candles in her kitchen in 1994, then driving to markets across the UK with her business partner Luc to sell the handmade candles. After 8 years trading, Jo managed to find a mentor (the royal candle-maker David Constable), and ended up being sponsored by the Prince’s Trust. Lily-Flame was selected from over 60,000 businesses to be one of 21 “Prince’s Trust Champions”, celebrating the Trust’s 21st anniversary of its Business start-up initiative in 2004.
Lily-Flame products are today manufactured in Somerset, in the wilds of the Glastonbury countryside, providing jobs for over 20 people. Jo and Luc still take care of the Lily-Flame creative process themselves, in-house. Here's 3 of their most popular candles:
Happy Birthday Scented Candle
A great way to say "happy birthday" to that special friend, family member or partner. This fun and luxurious candle by Lily-Flame gives 35 hours of fresh-scented delight. Cruelty-free and Vegan friendly.
Fairy Dust Scented Candle
Of all Lily-Flame's candles, this is the most popular. A difficult scent to describe; based on a fine fragrance. It's powdery, warm, sparkly and magical. In short- Fairy Dust! Makes a perfect gift for loved ones or addition to your home for a refreshing fragrance. Cruelty-free and Vegan friendly.
Thank You Scented Candle
A great way to say "thank you" to that special friend, family member or partner. This fun and luxurious candle by Lily-Flame gives 35 hours of fresh-scented delight. Cruelty-free and Vegan friendly.
The iconic Tin designed by Lily-Flame has since been adopted as the industry standard. Jo and Luc carefully choose each scent to ensure that each candle has the perfect balance of authenticity, nose and “throw” (the candle’s ability to gently fill a room with gorgeous scent). Then they pour tons of love, care and attention into naming the candle and creating the perfect package design.
