LAST DAY FOR POSTAGE TODAY, but I am available up to Wednesday 20th for collection/ delivery!!!
I spend a long time and lots of effort creating beautiful fragrances that will evoke something truly magical for you, my customers.
Unlike mass produced candles that are often quickly made with artificial ingredients, each of my handmade candles is made with care, love and the finest quality oils, helping to ensure that you take home a really wonderful product each and every time.
And this type of comment makes it all so worthwhile...
"Ooooooohhhhh my goodness Katy McGurk! My kitchen smells unreal. Lovely natural way to cover up new puppy odours! 😉😘 Can highly recommend using your wax melts!"

What do you get the person who has everything? I think everyone has that someone who is difficult to buy for – whether it be a family member of friend for whatever occasion.
Birthday, Christmas, Wedding as a thank you or even as a get well soon present, scented candles are the perfect gift. An extra special candle gift is a thoughtful present that will bring a smile to that special someone’s face.
Every time they light it, they will think of the person who gave it to them. Candles help promote a calm and serene atmosphere so you can give a candle safe in the knowledge that you are also giving the gift of relaxation and indulgence.
But which candle should you buy? What size? What scent and which colour?
Your first consideration should be which scent to purchase.
Think about when your friend or family member will use the candle. If they will use it to add a little candlelight to bath time then opt for the Lemongrass & Ginger fragrance that will add a touch of the spa ambience to any bathroom.
If you think they will like to light the candle during a cosy night in in front of the telly perhaps the Bergamot & Amber fragrance would add to the warm cosy atmosphere.
If colour is more a deciding factor, consider your friends taste in fashion and internal décor, before making a purchase.
When it comes to shape and size, perhaps price will be the deciding factor. However, with prices ranging from £3 – £25.00, there is something to suit everyone’s pocket.
Also, consider where you think the recipient would place the candle in their home. If it will stand proud on the mantelpiece then a tall and fat candle is the way to go. If it is likely to be a bath side candle then a burner and melt would be ideal.
You will also need to consider its use and burn time. For a candle that is likely to be lit every evening or meal time, you will need one with a long burn time so that you know that used correctly this will last several weeks.

I have thoroughly enjoyed all of my recent markets and craft fairs Folk and Bespoke and I would like to say a BIG thank you to everyone who has chatted, popped by, said nice things about my stall and bought my products. Every sale still makes me extremely happy! Something interesting that has kept on happening of late, is that several people have commented that 2 of my scents smell as good, if not better than 2 really BIG brands! Not sure if I'm allowed to say what brands they are though? After all, they are a lot bigger than me and I wouldn't want to upset them. My 2 scents that have been likened to them are Bergamot & Amber and Citrus & Basil. I feel chuffed to be associated with these brands and will leave you guessing as to who they are!
What brands do you think they are? Comments below?

Been a while since I've been on this page, so to warm you up on this dreary morning, and as a little treat for the weekend, you can now get 3 wax snap bars for the price of 2!
Hope you have some nice weekend festive plans!
Love, Katy xx

So the elusive artist had finally got his illustrations online! Still needs a few tweaks, but got there eventually, amidst everything else going on! If anyone fancies sharing his site, that would be really helpful! Thanks in advance!

I immediately chose two scents based on these descriptions. Lemongrass & Ginger – “sunlight bursting through trees” so this one I chose to melt in my kitchen and I melted Bergamot & Amber “a feeling of intense happiness” in the living room. I found breaking a third of the wax melt off was more than enough to get a really good scent throw and I then have re-used until the scent has died down. I’m really looking forward to burning all 8 and I’m currently making my way through all the fragrances. I have been really happy with the fragrances and the fact that I can still smell the scent lingering in the room long after the tea light has gone out.
Absolutely amazing products. Some lovely pet friendly wax melts that cover all those pet odours without causing any harm to animals. They smell divine and had so many compliments and enquiries from visitors as to how nice our house smells and that you cannot smell pets like you do in other people’s homes. Love them! Thank you x
Such care and skill goes into all of these products, of which I have sampled many. No cold-scent only rubbish here, like other more well known labels and brands - the wax melts smell soooo good when lit/liquid. Ethically sourced and created, these are perfect as gifts or a treat for yourself - go on....you know you want one...or five...😆
Beautiful smells from the lavender candles and melts that I bought. The smells last the entire time they’re burning. My whole flat smelt wonderful and relaxing. Can’t wait to try the mint melt next 🙂
Will be buying more soon!
I love these products- the scents are really amazing. It’s always so nice to get natural products that look and smell so good and my order came so quickly. All the scents are fab but my favourite is citrus and basil.
Thank you so much for my gorgeous candle melts!! They are Devine!!! Love the smell! Love the packaging!!! Excellent delivery speedy service! Highly recommend.
Beautiful, simple, natural products. Clean, fresh fragrances which are exquisite. Quite often highly fragranced melts and candles can aggravate headaches but this has never been the case when using these products. I highly recommend them and look forward to trying all fragrances.
Fantastic fresh and ‘clean’ scents - especially the Citrus and Basil which is lasting very well too! Looking forward to trying the other scents - great product.
Lovely melts, beautifully packaged and I love knowing that my money isn’t going to a heartless corporation who don’t care about their customers. Delivery was super fast considering I ordered at such a busy time of year. Can’t wait to work my way through the collection
I love the coconut and soya wax candles - natural and fresh - lovely selection of fragrances. Definitely recommend these products.
Beautiful products. Great quality and a real treat for the senses! Lovely combination of fragrances. Would totally recommend.
Amazing products! Such a nice smell that lingers around the house! Definitely going to get some more!
I have the Plum and Patchouli reed diffuser as well as the Bergamot and Amber and To***co and Oak soy wax melts. All really good products that smell lovely. My favourite is Plum and Patchouli though. Would highly recommend.
Amazing! Incredible products and wonderful customer care. 🌿
Fantastic, friendly service right up to Christmas Eve! Beautiful smelling waxes. Well presented for presents. Thank you Katy.
I have a lemongrass and ginger candle to a friend who said it smelt amazing. I have used the to***co and oak wax melt myself and it’s the most gorgeous comforting scent on a chilly autumn evening. I now can’t wait to use the bergamot and amber candle someone gave me. All the products are tastefully labelled and in beautiful hessian bag; the quality is obvious!
Great products, I purchased wax melts at a Christmas shopping event, where I could smell the different scents. The fragrance lasts and made the whole house smell festive. I like the rustic packaging and labels too.
I recently bought the Plum and Patchouli and the Bergamot and Amber candles and I love them. The scent is true to its name and just brings a sense of tranquility whenever it’s lit. Quality wise these are the best candles I’ve used. I bought the Citrus and Basil reed diffuser for my partner and he can’t sing its praises enough! The scent is extremely fresh and makes you smile when you walk in the room. Thank you for these brilliant products!
Absolutely beautiful, natural scents, I can't recommend the products highly enough. Just purchased the mixed bag of wax melts as I can never decide on a favourite. They are all equally amazing! A little goes a long way too, so they are also incredible value! ❤️
So pleased with my new one (yellow burner)….looks lovely in the yellow music room. Thanks for delivering x
We love the candles from Joe and Anna. My latest purchase of a Plum and Patchouli reed diffuser makes my bedroom smell lovely and the Citrus and Basil makes the hallway fresh and welcoming. They last for ages too, so very good value. Will be getting many more.

Ordered a couple of candles, Lemongrass and Ginger and Citrus and Basil, as I’d read the great reviews. They are gorgeous! Came beautifully packaged in little hessian bags and really well packed. I have then burning away and find the smell really uplifting. I will most definitely be ordering again. Thanks for a lovely product which was delivered quickly and with great communication.
I absolutely love these products! I’ve bought the plum and patchouli candle for myself and am constantly burning it, I am always getting compliments on the smell! The candles make great presents, there is a smell for everyone and all of the products come in beautiful hessian bags. These products are all extremely high quality and I have never found a candle that gives such a strong fragrance throughout its entire lifetime.
