What’s the easiest way to make your home cosier? Candles, of course. Here, we selected 7 of our favourite sustainable candles on the market.
The cold season is here, and now that we are spending more and more time at home, the need for making our nest feel super cosy is practically a necessity.
During the lockdown, we have seen people trying to upgrade their homes in every way possible. The DIY hashtag was trending, and we filled our Pinterest boards with hundreds of rattan chairs, Victorian town-houses and expensive furniture.
There is one easy and cheap way to make your home feel cosier instantly, and that’s scented candles. It is essential, though, to think about what kind of candles we are burning: most people don’t think about it, but candles can be made with toxic ingredients so is critical to pay attention, not only to the wax used but also to the wick.
To make the research easier for you, we selected our favourite non-toxic, sustainable candles that you can safely burn all winter long.
