This butterfly postcard was the colour and shading This butterfly postcard was the colour and shading I’d been aiming for with the glaze on this jug I made at wonderful @thefarnhampottery 
I’m glossing over the somewhat ‘solid’ base of this - over an inch!! My previous attempts had all ended up in the bucket because I’d been far too cavalier trying to bring up clay from the bottom. So this one was overly cautious. But at least it didn’t topple like the others.
Learning to throw at the wheel was so challenging and physically demanding but also such a mental reset. Thanks to our teacher Serenity who more than lived up to her name - particularly when dealing with my many cries for help 🤣 
Now I want to learn more…. Why did the wax resist on the jug on image 2 go so brown? Why do I always end up making cylinders or jugs even when I set out to make a wide dish? And why didn’t I use some more colourful glazes? I want to try it all again.
That’s the thing about pottery - it draws you in and makes you want to do more.

Soy aromatherapy candles

 Soy aromatherapy candles handmade in Brighton by Corinne Taylor

I have loved Corinne Taylor’s handmade natural skincare and home fragrance products for a while now. A qualified aromatherapist, Corinne’s expertly blended essential oil combinations offer therapeutic benefits. There are no synthetic fragrances or nasties of any kind here!

Choose from Inner Peace, Purify and Harmony and look forward to fragrantly increased wellbeing.

If, like me, you love a scented candle, you will love Corinne’s beautifully packaged options. The only difficulty I can foresee is deciding whether it’s inner peace, purification or harmony that you most need.

I’ll list describe the different oils and fragrance of each to help you choose…

A little more about Corinne Taylor’s vegan aromatherapy candles

Corinne uses only 100% pure essential oils which not only smell beautiful but contain many therapeutic properties which will be released into the air when burnt. Soy wax is cleaner than other waxes, burns longer, and is free from harmful toxins and chemicals. It contains no carcinogens or pollutants which means it is less likely to trigger allergies.

The candles are in a screw top glass jar which can easily be washed out after use and re-used or recycled. Presented in a luxury cardboard tube.
