Ruby: This Christmas shine bright, little light,

By Jo Phillips

“SHINE BRIGHT LITTLE LIGHT“

For me, candles evoke the spirit of Christmas more successfully than tinsel, holly, clementines, Father Christmas.  Maybe it’s the spirits dancing in the flames as they flicker, maybe it’s the nostalgia of memories past.  Either way, we bring you our selection of the best candles for this Christmas.
