Scent-sational!Here's local story that began at the Sedgemoor fm business networking breakfasts several months ago... Sally Palmer of West Country Candle Co. and Claire Hill The Furniture Restylist found a shared spark in our very own Sedgemoor fm breakfast meet-ups. One candle flickerer, one furniture flourisher… and suddenly a lifestyle brand was born.It's Clare’s first foray into fragrance with a signature reed diffuser – Meandering Hills. Think slow mornings and lazy Somerset skies bottled up. A gentle woodland green, a grounding hush, an invitation to breathe softer. Handmade, responsibly sourced, and carrying the kind of luxury that doesn’t shout – it simply welcomses you home.Sally and Claire join Yolanda this week on the Sedgemoor Life Show from 6pm to talk about the product launch at the Taunton Flower Show last month, and their partnership. It's a gurt-lush collection! 📻 Find out more about Sally & Clare as they speak to Yolanda on the Sedgemoor Life Show from 6pm on 104.2fm. And come and join us at our breakfast networking events and maybe find yourself a partnership like Sally & Claire did! www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/1575290940609?aff=oddtdtcreator ... See MoreSee Less
