About
The idea of Pause in time began with my cat Theo, who was disgnosed with asthma and didn’t seem to do well around some of the candles and fragrances I had at home. This led me to look more closely at the waxes and fragrances I was using and, along the way, I discovered a real passion for creating my own.
I love making pieces that are a little different, from flower wax melt bouquets and unusual decorative candles to personalised and seasonal wax melt sets. I enjoy experimenting with shapes, colours and fragrance combinations to create pieces that are beautiful to display as well as bringing fragrance into your home.
I use natural waxes and carefully selected CMR-free and phthalate-free fragrances, and every piece is hand-poured, finished and packaged by me in small batches.
Whether you're looking for something for your own home, a thoughtful gift or a personalised creation, I want each piece to feel like a little pause in time: a slow moment for you or someone you love.
