Out of stock
Description
natural beeswax with silver glitter

These candles are held in stock, whereas we also offer other seasonal colours. The rich red and dark greens look particularly rich for Christmas and Alison’s favourite it white wax with an opalescent/frosted glitter which looks as though the candles have been caught by an hoar frost.
Do ask if you have a colour combination you’d like us to make for you.

2062Fascinating Facts Tea Towel – two coloured – temporarily out of stock – early 2022 hopefully!
£9.50We just had to share some fascinating facts with everyone about our clever bees.
Robin is the artist and drew our bee as well as the ‘skep’ a traditional beehive made from straw and we designed the text to follow a flying bee. Facts such as ‘a queen bee can lay up to 1500 eggs a day’ need sharing.
This is the second incarnation, a development of our first range and these are hand screen printed, on unbleached cotton, in Norfolk by Witts Design, our neighbour at a number of markets – we love to collaborate! https://www.wittsdesign.com/
Presented tightly folded with a corrugated card and label around this is a great present for anyone interested in bees.
We did sell one to someone who was going to embroider and paint the towel to use in the classroom – what a great idea!

Beeswax dinner candle pair dipped
£10.00Hand dipped in a workshop in Alison’s home county of Cumbria with English beeswax. This is a traditional method of dipping a length of taut wick into molten wax, removing it, allowing the wax to cool and repeating multiple times to build up thin layers of wax and eventually creating these superb candles.
On opening these candles smell beautifully of honey.
Beeswax is the ‘King’ of all waxes, it burns slowly with a perfect flame and beeswax are the only candles which apparently don’t pollute the atmosphere. In fact, they produce a negative ion when they burn thus making dust and pollen drop form the air. Are these the perfect candles to burn for hay fever sufferers? We think so!
We’ve photographed the candles showing the wax ‘polished’ and shiny, and matt and milky with ‘bloom’. Bloom is a natural process of beeswax, ageing and environment creates a milky and matt finish on the wax – the bloom – preferred by Americans apparently. If your candles develop a bloom and you prefer them looking shiny, then all that’s needed is to rub gently with a fine cloth and voila!

Furniture cream
£9.00This is from a traditional and much loved recipe providing a long lasting solution to retaining the good looks and longevity of your wood. Using this cream will remind you of past times !
Turpentine and beeswax are a classic combination for bringing out the best in natural materials and wood will be left with a soft sheen and we add a hint of lavender too.
Apply with a soft cloth and rub in circular motion across the surface. This cream cleans too so the cloth will become discoloured. Leave to soak in and then buff with a fresh cloth.
It’s only necessary to use this cream every few months or if your wood is looking lack lustre and between times dust with a dampened cloth.

Natural Lip Balm in a Stick
£6.50Made to a traditional recipe combining our own beeswax with almond oil and a splash of vitamin E (wheat germ) – possibly the simplest and most effective lip balm there is. We have deliberately omitted fragrance or flavour as we believe that folk are tempted to lick their lips more, creating a vicious circle.
Our lip balm gently moisturises leaving a fine film of protective beeswax leaving lovely soft kissable lips, just as nature intended.
The balm in the stick is firmer than that in the tin making it very easy to use, even with gloves on.
Del Brown wrote a superb review about our lip balm – click on his name to read in full.
“….Not everyone wants a lip product with a fruity fragrance, so being fragrance free, both men and women feel comfortable using it. Unlike petroleum based lip balms that just form a barrier on the skin, the natural oils and bees wax in this product penetrate deep into the skin, hydrating dry lips and making them feel soft and comfortable.
This easy to use, fuss free lip balm is a winter essential and fully Del Brown Approved!”
2019 new packaging; a push up cardboard container (containing twice as much lip balm as previously).
9 ml stick – £ 6.50 (a softer lip balm is also available in a tin)

Fab Face Cream – Geranium and Orange
£12.00 – £24.00Our combination of natural seed oils, specifically chosen for their moisturising properties, fused with our honey and beeswax, plus geranium and sweet orange, create this effective face cream.
Geranium has a light and uplifting scent. It is known to oxygenate the skin, balancing production of sebum, keeping it supple and helping heal wounds. It is superb for clearing congested skin, dermatitis and eczema. Working well with oily and mature skin, geranium promotes circulation and is a good lymphatic cleanser – how brilliant is all that?!
GERANIUM OIL SHOULD BE AVOIDED DURING PREGNANCY
Sweet orange is fresh, sunny and tangy. This refreshing and uplifting tonic will help support collagen formation, as well as increase blood flow to the skin. It also provides a little TLC to acne-prone, irritated or dry skin.
All our creams last well throughout the day, suiting all skin types, and this one is particularly suitable for combination skin.
Apply morning and night, and whenever else you want to.
