This Saturday 8th February, Wick & Tallow is delighted to reveal that it is sponsoring The Stylist's Rail's latest pop-up fashion endeavour at The Hoxton Hotel in Shoreditch just ahead of London Fashion Week. Alongside our candles you will find some incredible pieces to buy from vintage dresses to the latest must-have accessories that will make sure you stand out from the crowd in the best way possible. To top all this off there will be a proper party atmosphere as big name DJ's take to the decks to get you in the mood and Bloom gin ensure that no one goes thirsty!
We are giving away a pair of VIP tickets to the event that allow you to get in early, ahead of the queues. To be in with a chance to win just tweet, email or Facebook us and we will let the winner know on Thursday.
More information on The Stylist's Rail event can be found in the press release below:
We're delighted our Sandalwood & Rose candle has been featured in the latest edition of Homes & Gardens Magazine. Particularly fond of the "will add style to a room" line too!
"NEW DIRECTION For something a little different, we suggest new English candlemaker Wick & Tallow. Its inaugural collection of eight candles, including Sandalwood & Rose, will not only entrance your olfactory senses, the coloured waxes will add style to a room as well." - Homes & Gardens Magazine March 2014.
Wick & Tallow featured in the January 2014 edition of The Resident magazine. Described as having "classic fragrances and fashion-led colours" it couldn't really be talking about anyone else! Click on the images below to see the whole magazine in all it's online glory.
Wednesday 4th December saw friends and family of Wick & Tallow descend on the London showroom for an evening of candles, cupcakes and cocktails! It was a brilliant evening that allowed us to say thank you to everyone who has supported us in one way or another to reach our launch. Cocktails were mixed in house by our (nearly) resident Dane, Alex Rykkje, served in wax pouring jugs to great amusement, and cupcakes were supplied by the incredibly talented Ella Prichard of Sugarella Cakes, with icing to match each of the Wick & Tallow candles in the current range. Bold colours were definitely the theme of the night, particularly as the cocktails were bright pink and there were plenty of brightly coloured balloons to be found, some of which are still on the ceiling!
Twitter and Instagram certainly got a lot of attention as everyone wanted to snap their cupcakes with their candles before being unable to hold back any longer. One man we spoke to had already had five cupcakes before he had even managed to find a drink! It was really lovely to see so many familiar faces (and some new ones too!) and get such incredible feedback about our products. It may have been the first Wick & Tallow party but we very much doubt that it'll be the last. Perhaps it's time to start planning our summer already...
It's been a busy couple of days since we were asked to take part in PopUp Piccadilly, however, our store is now all set up and looking great! We have had an amazing day working with some incredible people who have been helping out with visual merchandising, bringing a wealth of experience from the retail world including department stores such as John Lewis and Selfridges. It's an eye catching set up, particularly when you see it in the flesh surrounded by all the other wares being sold by the companies we're sharing the space with. There's a great mix of products carefully selected by the PopUp Britain organisers, which together make for a fantastic shop to help you with your Christmas shopping!
The doors open tomorrow (Thursday) from 10am and we will be trading daily (including the weekend) until the end of opening hours on Wednesday 13th November. If you haven't had the opportunity to come and see our candles and experience the scents yet then this is it!
We very much look forward to seeing you there and hope you'll leave with some great Christmas presents!
