Description

‘Twas The Night Before, one of our celebrated Refillable Christmas Candles captures the scent of a home right on the cusp of that magic hour, on Christmas Eve, when all is quiet and everyone is united in joyful anticipation of what’s to come. Its Original Scent Recipe of Boardgames, Cinnamon Spice and Mince Pies is deliciously sweet, spicy and woody.

The kids are in bed, listening out for hooves on the rooftop and adults are curled up, sherry in hand, wondering what’s left to wrap.

This candle is an exuberant celebration of Christmas day, of the joy of anticipation and of the sheer wonder that a day spent together with food and excitement aplenty can still create.

This candle is for the Christmas devotees, the die hard celebrators, the present givers, stocking fillers, fridge-stuffers, Christmas adorers amongst us. May this year be our most magical yet.

Our 'Twas The Night Before Christmas candle comes in a beautiful ceramic pot (a candle pot you can refill with us again and again, making it a pot for life) made by talented British ceramics studio: Studio LP The pot features a glossy white glaze decorated with ribbons of green and gold.

Our Story

Great House Farm Stores was founded by sisters Abbie Price and Roanna Day. After the life-long city girls moved to the Welsh countryside, they discovered the life-giving, nourishing impact of living attuned to the seasons. Now, drawing on a heritage of scent practice from their mother, the sisters craft their peerless refillable candles around the kitchen table of their little Welsh farm. Each candle contains an Original Scent Recipe, a fragrance like no other, designed to change how you feel. 

Great House Farm Stores designed Home Scent Practice, the art of transforming every moment with scent, and together the sisters are dedicated to spreading the word about the power of scent. 

“Home Scent Practice evolved from our understanding that scent is a central part of leaning into every season of life and of nature. Scent, as much as food, can be our partner in celebrating or capturing the season and in changing our emotional responses.” Co-Founders Abbie and Roanna

Our Purpose

We believe in having your toes in the soil and your head in the stars, a balance of living seasonally while saving space for wonder, dreaming and imagination. Our purpose is to help you discover just how powerfully scent can aid your wellbeing, day to day. And, how the right fragrance can also lead you towards hope, healing and dreaming again.
