A lovely weekend....

Well, despite the arctic temperatures, i braved the Saturday sales - and came home with a fabulous new tea set....and a vintage suitcase i never knew i needed...but i do!

Am now busy making new candles - went for a different brand of wax this time - spent more on it (i know - you get what you pay for!!!) - and it is fabulous to work with - saving me hours of re-working!

Will update with some pics later on as they are looking so pretty!
