The blend

Happy is sweet orange and bergamot, with may chang, lemongrass and a finish of ylang ylang. Bergamot, Citrus bergamia, cold-pressed from the peel in Italy. Emily made it second, after Soothe, from a memory of the Sicilian orange groves: the air thick with citrus and the day going amber. The mood lifts.

This kit makes that scent at your own table. Emily blends the oil. The pouring is yours.

Each candle in the box: 150g eco soy wax, a 15ml Happy essential oil blend, a frosted white glass vessel, a copper lid, and a cotton wick with holder and sticker. Each one sets to a 165g candle. Written instructions and a video of the workshop come in every box.

Choose one, two or three candles. All materials 100% natural, cruelty-free and sourced in the UK.

The craft

Poured at Connaught Street. One batch at a time.

Every candle is hand-poured in small batches at our London workshop. Emily blends every scent and makes each batch by hand. The candles are then poured, labelled and finished by hand.

The ritual

How to burn the candle you make.

Everything is in the box. The workshop video walks you through it.
  1. Set up the table.

    Clear a spot, set out your vessel, the wick and the wax, and press play on the video.

  2. Melt the wax.

    Gently, in a jug over simmering water, until it runs clear.

  3. Blend and pour.

    Stir in the Happy blend off the heat, set the wick with its holder, and pour.

  4. Let it set.

    Overnight, wick uncut. Trim to a centimetre before the first burn, and let that burn reach the edges.
