It's my favourite scented time of year!

It's time to make Christmas candles! I absolutely love the fragrances of these, cranberry, vanilla, christmas pudding - delicious! Here's a peek at what I have been working on..



They're available right now from my Etsy Shop and will very soon be available on my main website at www.purplesparkle.co.uk

There are actually going to be a good few changes to the Purple Sparkle website over the coming weeks. Alot has been going on since my last blog post, and I have taken the decision to stop trading from the Purple Sparkle shop in Wincanton. It wasn't an easy decision to make, in fact it was absolutely horrible, as I loved my little Purple Sparkle shop, but I'm pretty sure now that it's the best thing to do for me, and for Purple Sparkle.

The good news is, that all of the lovely crafty goodies that I stocked in the Purple Sparkle shop are now going to be made available online for everyone.

Amongst other things, we're going to have these beautiful teacup pincushions made by Julie at Shabby Chic..



and these scrumptious Snuggle Baby Boots handcrafted by Tracy at Sugar Pie..



These are made from luxurious cashmere and merino blended yarn, and Tracy is even making some Purple Sparkle special edition snuggle boots!

It has always been my dream with Purple Sparkle to bring beautiful and unique handmade crafts together, for gifts and treats at reasonable prices. I was lucky enough to be able to do this in my little retail shop for the past year, and I have had the most wonderful customers, and fantastic support from the other traders in Wincanton. Now it's time to move in a new direction, and I'm confident that we're going to keep on sparkling! :-)
