How It All Began

I am often asked what gave me the idea for Love2melt, and really my inspiration was my mother-in-law, Jeanette. She was a wonderful lady, very house proud and always had a candle burning or a melt on the go, filling the place with beautiful scents. Sadly she passed away five years ago, but she is remembered with love by everyone who knew her, and as a family we are reminded of her every day in some small way.

Back in February this year, driven by the disappointing range of melts on the market I decided to have a go at making my own. I bought my first mould, and carried out lots of research to make sure I was buying the very best ingredients from reputable suppliers. I am proud to say that the soy wax I use is the best quality, ethically sourced and sustainable, and all of the ingredients that go into my wax melts are vegan.

From the first batch of my little heart shaped melts I was hooked! I soon tried more fragrances and started giving them away to family and friends: the feedback was amazing, and so I decided to try selling them. I chose the brown paper packaging for that home crafted feel, with a tiny wooden peg added to complete the detail (this is something I continue to receive compliments about which means a lot to me). I set up my Facebook and Instagram pages and was delighted when like-minded “melters” started showing an interest. Soon after came the website and Love2melt was truly up and running.

Over the past 6 months I have worked hard to expand my range. I now offer melts in 66 fragrances, I have introduced snap bars, carpet fresheners, room sprays, accessories, and today sees the launch of my reed diffusers, which I expect to fly off the shelves, so be sure to shop early to avoid disappointment. I am already working behind the scenes on the next product, so watch this space…..

I pride myself on exceptional customer service, packing all orders within 24 hours, with the majority sent out the same day. All local orders are hand delivered, and everything else is taken to the post office by the next working day. Don’t forget that orders over £15 qualify for free delivery, and spend over £20 to receive a free snap bar as well. Sign up for rewards and collect points to use towards future orders - the more you spend the more points you earn, and bonus points are now also awarded for my new “refer a friend” offer.

Finally, I would like to say a very big thank you to all of my customers for your continued support, I wouldn’t have come this far without you.

Well, that’s it, my first blog! Time to have a coffee and take 5 minutes out for myself I think. And of course I will put on a melt first, something relaxing…. hmm…. maybe Lavender and Camomile? Stay safe guys! Until the next time….

Happy melting! xx
