There are gifts… and then there are gifts. The kind that feel thoughtful, personal, a bit luxurious - the kind people actually remember. And that’s exactly why I created A Year of Candles: a monthly candle subscription that feels like sending someone joy, comfort, and a moment of calm twelve times over.
If you’ve ever wondered what to give someone who “has everything,” or if you want to mark a big birthday or milestone with something really special, this is it. A Year of Candles isn’t just a parcel through the letterbox - it becomes part of someone’s lifestyle, their home, and their ritual.
And honestly, who wouldn’t want a fresh, beautifully curated candle delivered to their door every month?
What Makes A Year of Candles So Special?
Every month, the recipient will receive two candles - each with its own scent and its own personality. One is our classic 65-hour candle, and the other is our mini candle, each poured in a different fragrance so they get a full seasonal moment.
Winter warms, spring brightens, summer lifts, autumn comforts… Each month captures the mood of the season in scent form - carefully curated, beautifully balanced, and chosen to bring joy.
And your first box is sent straight away, so there’s no waiting around. If you order in December, for example, they’ll receive the December scent immediately - a perfect way to begin their year of fragrance.
What Comes in the First Box - and What Arrives Each Month After
When you order A Year of Candles, we make sure the very first box feels extra special. It’s beautifully presented and designed to make the whole experience feel like a real gift - even if you’re treating yourself.
Your First Box Includes:
- 1 x 65-hour luxury candle in the current month’s scent
- 1 x mini candle in a complementary fragrance
- Our solid oak bespoke base plate
- Our JoJo Co. wick trimmer
- A gold-foiled greeting card, personalised with your handwritten message
- Luxury gift boxing and ribbon
This first delivery sets the tone - it’s the moment the recipient realises this isn’t just another gift… it’s something truly thoughtful.
Your Monthly Boxes Thereafter:
Each month following the first, they’ll receive:
- 1 x 65-hour candle in that month’s curated seasonal scent
- 1 x mini candle in a different, complementary scent
These monthly deliveries focus entirely on the fragrance journey - new scents, new moods, new seasonal moments - all curated to move beautifully through the year.
It’s the perfect balance: an unforgettable first box filled with extras, followed by a whole year of gentle, meaningful candle moments.
Why a Candle Subscription Is the Best Gift Idea Ever
People often search for candle subscription, monthly candle box, luxury gift ideas, and unique gifts for her - and A Year of Candles ticks every box.
It’s perfect for:
- milestone birthdays
- someone going through a tough time
- new homeowners
- wedding gifts
- anniversaries
- people who adore candles (or need a reason to slow down)
- someone who deserves to be treated all year long
It’s also an amazing group gift. A few people can club together and give something that feels truly meaningful, without the stress of “what do we buy her this year?”
This is a gift that brings genuine joy - not a one-day feeling, but something that lifts their home and their mood every single month.
A Gift That Feels Personal, Intentional, and Thoughtful
I wanted this to feel like more than just candles arriving in the post. I wanted it to feel like someone is looking after you, cheering you on, giving you tiny pockets of calm throughout the year. A moment every month where life slows down for just a second.
Lighting a candle isn’t just something you “use” - it’s something you feel. It becomes part of your space, your evening, your wellbeing.
And gifting someone a whole year of those moments? That’s special.
Start Their Candle Journey Today
As soon as you purchase A Year of Candles, the first box goes out straight away with the current month’s scent - beautifully boxed and ready to gift.
After that, the curated scents arrive monthly like clockwork, ready to brighten their space, lift their mood, and remind them that someone thought they deserved something beautiful all year long.
If you’re looking for an unforgettable gift - one that lasts, surprises, and delights month after month - this is it.
