Beautiful Beaded Garlands

These stunning beaded garlands are selling like hot cakes!


At 5ft long they are incredibly verstatile, you can twirl them around
 any of our candles or around a pillar candle

leave the garland to gently cascade down your chosen holder


simple but extremely elegant!

We only have a few left to sell at our events but don't worry
I will be stocking more!

It's the simple things....

As we head ever closer to Christmas our already busy lives get even more hectic....
So why not slow things down and take the time to enjoy the simple pleasures in life.



William H Davies portrays this in his poem Leisure

What is this life if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.

No time to stand beneath the boughs
And stare as long as sheep or cows.

No time to see, when woods we pass,
Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass.

No time to see, in broad daylight,
Streams full of stars, like skies at night.

No time to turn at Beauty's glance,
And watch her feet, how they can dance.

No time to wait till her mouth can
Enrich that smile her eyes began.

A poor life this is if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.



Make time for a walk in the countryside it can lift your spirits....
certainly works for me!
