Astier de Villatte...

 
 

It was a very happy sunny day many many years ago when I went for a shopping spree in central London with my first ever pay check and stumbled across Liberty of London. It has remained one of my favourite London shopping locations and I have been a loyal customer ever since. This is where I go to pick up my favourite indulgence, the Astier de Villatte, Alger scented candle.

 

i have been avoiding throwing out the empty ceramic containers not just because they are so pretty but also in a vain attempt to be more sustainable.

i finally decided that the empty containers would look great as water beakers, so i gave them all a good scrub to remove all of the wax residue and voila.

the original candles were made in the astier de villatte parisian workshop, 100% natural and smells truly divine, as ferris bueller would say "i highly recommend you picking one up.
