I always knew that I wanted my candles to be <a href=\"https:\/\/cosyowl.com\/en_ie\/candle-making-supplies\/fragrance-oils-for-candle-making\/all-fragrances\/honey-fragrance-oil\">natural<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/cosyowl.com\/en_ie\/candle-wicks\/wedo-eco-wick-raw\">sustainable<\/a>. This is why The Little Flame only uses soy wax with cotton wicks and <a href=\"https:\/\/cosyowl.com\/en_ie\/guides\/essential-oil-benefits\">essential oils<\/a>. \u00a0The candles come in a <a href=\"https:\/\/cosyowl.com\/en_ie\/craft-supplies\/reed-diffuser-supplies\/reed-diffuser-bottles\/glass-container-200ml-karen-diffuser-bottle\">glass container<\/a> which is recyclable and finished off with a beautiful bamboo lid. Every <a href=\"https:\/\/cosyowl.com\/en_ie\/guides\/a-summers-beach-gel-votive-candle\">candle<\/a> is hand poured and for every candle sold a tree is planted.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>What was the first thing you learnt in your candle making process?<\/h2>\n<div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">\n<div class=\"elementToProof\">\n<div dir=\"ltr\">\n<div class=\"elementToProof\">The most important thing I have learnt in the candle making process is that you cannot do everything yourself. I now have help making the candles so I can concentrate on everything else that has to be done when running a <a href=\"https:\/\/cosyowl.com\/en_ie\/guides\/small-business-feature-candle-making\">small business<\/a>.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>What is your go-to fragrance oil and why?<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px\">It is always lavender and orange. \u00a0I find the lavender is so calming and combined with the orange helps to relieve any anxiety at the end of the day. Nothing quite beats a lit candle to make the room cosy in the evening and curling up on the sofa with a good book!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-62662\" src=\"https:\/\/cosyowl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"721\" height=\"804\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cosyowl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3-1.png 1587w, https:\/\/cosyowl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3-1-269x300.png 269w, https:\/\/cosyowl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3-1-918x1024.png 918w, https:\/\/cosyowl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3-1-768x857.png 768w, https:\/\/cosyowl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3-1-1377x1536.png 1377w, https:\/\/cosyowl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3-1-200x223.png 200w, https:\/\/cosyowl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3-1-400x446.png 400w, https:\/\/cosyowl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3-1-600x669.png 600w, https:\/\/cosyowl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3-1-800x892.png 800w, https:\/\/cosyowl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3-1-1200x1338.png 1200w, https:\/\/cosyowl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3-1-500x558.png 500w, https:\/\/cosyowl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3-1-700x781.png 700w, https:\/\/cosyowl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3-1-64x71.png 64w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 721px) 100vw, 721px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Where can your products be found?<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px\">The Little Flame products can be found on my website <\/span><a id=\"LPlnkOWALinkPreview\" style=\"font-size: 16px\" href=\"https:\/\/linkprotect.cudasvc.com\/url?a=http%3a%2f%2fwww.thelittleflame.co.uk&amp;c=E,1,K2O574qCPyn5toCUjTuU3WnnQqbqZNvfEvnue-j00zq_Bldu3WZiygW9Z-GVAYHUOVN3BfoLpCE2mzC4wv7umtzwpvVLibCVho_v5MUGdFA,&amp;typo=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.thelittleflame.co.uk. <\/a>They are also stocked in a variety of shops.
