This candelabra did a good job of mimicking me in the shop this past weekend. The candles flopped over in the end, made me jump out of my skin because they were on the shelf right behind my head...and I took it as a sign to close early π
Interestingly, those candlesticks were the only thing to perish in the heat - the only wax in the shop I hadn't made with my own hands! π

I've been reading we're due another heatwave soon, with July 11th predicted to be the hottest day ever recorded in Nottingham π₯΄
I'm getting as much done as I can in these slightly cooler periods (it's still 30c in my workshop π₯΅) but there's a good chance the shop will have to close again and no orders will be shipped if the weather hots up again.
I.E. Don't delay in making an order if you need to receive it early July because I'll be in hiding!π«£
