3 ways we can help you stay connected this Christmas (even from a distance!).

We all know that this Christmas is going to be different. Here at the Home County Candle Co. we know that different doesn’t always mean bad, and so whether it’s Santa’s lap or social distance, bubble and squeak or bubbles of 6, here’s how we can help you stay connected to your loved ones this Christmas…

remind them of home…

You know that old saying, “there’s no smell like home” (OK so I’ve gone off-piste slightly but still)…

Scents have a unique way of transporting us back to memories we didn’t even know existed, or even taking us to places we’ve never yet visited.

If you aren’t able to get together with friends and family from afar this Christmas, remind them of home, or of precious memories with a candle or reed diffuser from our County Collection.

From Shropshire to Somerset, Norfolk to Northumberland, our County Collection contains 25 luxury scents inspired by Britain’s most beautiful places, so we’re sure to have the perfect scent for everyone on your list! PLUS, if you can’t decide on just one scent, our Gift Sets allow you to mix and match to create a more bespoke gift with scents to remind your loved ones of more than just home!

send love straight to their doorstep (just in time for christmas)…

We know it’ll be hard not to be able to be able to gift to your loved ones in person, but that doesn’t mean you can’t make them feel special with a beautiful gift to open on Christmas morning.

We always provide the option of shipping to an alternative address, so you can have your gifts delivered directly to your loved ones, beautifully packaged and smelling gorgeous.

What’s more, you can even leave us a note at checkout (in the ‘how did you hear about us/any special instructions?’ box) to let us know what date you would like us to ship the gifts. E.g. ‘Please ship 16th December to ensure delivery by Christmas Day’.

the finishing touch…

Because no Christmas gift is complete without a red and white bow!

Select ‘Christmas Gift Wrap’ to have your candles beautifully wrapped in natural kraft paper (which is 100% recyclable), hand-stamped with fabulous festive stamps and fastened with red and white striped twine. PLUS, we can even include a handwritten note to your loved one - just let us know what you would like it to say by leaving us a note at checkout.

Because we know not all gifts bought in December are for Christmas, we’ve also included the option of ‘Standard Gift Wrap’ to all of our candles. Select this option if you’d like us to leave the festive stamps off and swap the red and white bow for natural jute twine.

It really is as simple as that! We know many people are anxious about Christmas plans this year, and we want to do everything we can to help you send beautiful gifts to your loved ones, and connect from afar if you need to. Therefore, if there’s anything we haven’t covered, or if you have any questions whatsoever, please do not hesitate to get in touch, we’d love to hear from you!

And all that’s left to say is have yourself a merry little Christmas (if we don’t speak before!).

All our love,
