Thanks Littlewoods.

I am a completely new to Yankee (and Littlewoods!). I went for Jasmine and Pink sands but have no idea which one I would prefer! Anyone got any advice they want to share please?

Also I heard about wrapping foil round the thing to stop it tunneling and also trimming the wicks. Youtube it if you're not sure.

I have the jasmine, love it, don't know about pink sands sorry!

Does anyone know if 'very' and littlewoods are the same company? Oh, scrap that someone has said they are... Do you think 'very' are likely to amend their orders too?
Just wondering as I ordered via 'very'.
Thanks

Interesting question. I ordered 6 and the order is showing as processed. Had confirmarion email but no dispatch email and payment not taken off my card yet. I am not going to harrass them, just leave it and see if my order arrives or not.

I have the pink sands so I went for one of those. It's hard to describe but I think it smells gorgeous.

They will not tunnel if on the first time you use, you burn the candle so that the wax melts to the edge of the glass. After that you can burn it as little or as long as you want, two hours at a time is usually enough to fragrance your home for a food few hours. You need to keep an eye on the wick or it will start to give off smoke if left too long. Just trim it every now and then. No need to wrap in silver foil!

If you want, invest in a candle shade which sits on top of the lit candle. Looks nice and will contain any smoke given off should you forget to trim your wick! There are also illuma lids which help as well.

Biggest mistake is people burning them all day. You will make your candle last longer if you blow it out and leave for a few hours before burning again as the fragrance lingers.

I've still had no update as to what is actually going on with our orders!

Yes they are shop direct (isme And woolworths as well). Yodel as well. Barclay brothers and all that.

I placed an order with Woolworths...paid via paypal and the amount has been debited from my bank account...the payment for Very has been ring fenced on my credit card. Will have to wait and see what happens.
