A TNE special: with every purchase of Glasshouse candles (truly amazing scents from Melbourne) from us, enjoy a free copy of This Life Electric or a copy of one of our bestselling mystery books, Caught in Crossfires.
I'm personally a huge fan of candles. In fact it's become a habit that whenever it's pouring with rain outside or if I'm in for a long writing session - it's become instinctive to light up a candle. And there is almost none out there with the quality of Glasshouse Fragrances from Melbourne.
Here's the curated selection I brought in:

Made with natural lead-free cotton wicks and the highest quality non-toxic soy blend wax for a burn that is pure and intensely fragrant.
No Parabens. No Silicones. No PEGs.Trim wicks to 7mm before each use using scissors or a wick trimmer. If wicks are too short the wax may not burn all the way to the edge (tunneling), and if too long the wicks may appear to mushroom causing black soot to form on the glass.
Place candle in a non-draughty area, away from small children, pets and flammable material.
Do not burn for less than one hour or more than four hours at a time.
