Rainy Sunday Afternoons – Setting the Mood for the Ultimate Cozy Day

 

Rainy Sundays can go one of two ways: you can sit there in the gloom, surrounded by damp towels and the smell of wet dog… or you can take control and turn it into the coziest day of the week. We vote cozy.

Here’s how to flip a rainy day on its head and set a mood you’ll actually enjoy being stuck inside with:


Light a Candle, Save the Mood

This is  where we come in....With our handcrafted candles and delightful scents, let’s turn that gloom into boom...with scents like  Blood Orange, coastal Sandswept Peach, and sweet Champagne & Strawberries your rainy day feels warm, lush, and a little bit fancy. Who needs sunshine when your lounge room smells this good.

Hot Bath, No Regrets

Baths were made for Sundays like this. You don’t need an excuse—just chuck in some of our bath salts or soaks, dim the lights, and let the steam do its thing.

Add a playlist, a snack (yes, snacks in the bath are a thing), and whatever you need to tune out the world. Bonus points if you lock the door and ignore everyone for a while.

Rain = hot drinks
That’s just the rule. Coffee, tea, hot choccie—
it doesn’t matter what’s in it as long as it’s in a
 mug you love.
 
We’ve got a whole stash of fun, colourful mugs and tumblers that’ll make you smile even if the dog’s snoring, the kids are "sooooo bored" and the rain won’t quit

Rainy days don’t have to be miserable. With the right mood, a  little soft lighting, some background music or the sound of rain (if it’s not annoying you yet),  (and maybe a cheeky bath soak), you’ll be secretly hoping for a few more grey skies. Light it up, slow it down, and let your space do the heavy lifting.

The Candle’s Out, But the Magic Continues

Here at Soaps Candles and Home, we hate the idea of anything ending up in landfill. That’s why, right from the beginning of our candle-making journey, we carefully considered how our vessels could be reused — even after the final flicker of the flame. Every jar, pot, and holder we create has been tested with reuse in mind, so once your candle has burned through, it’s just the start of a new story. Here are our top 5 reuses This dolphin pot was the perfect size for my claw clips - keeps them together and tidy I found the wild horses pot perfect for my hair ties. It stopped them getting caught in my claw clips and was the perfect size. And the cotton buds? They’ve found a new home in our little sailboat pot. It's such a joy seeing these vessels continue to be part of everyday life, long after the candle has burned down. Instead of having an untidy bathroom, everything now has its place — and it all looks so pretty! Our reused candle pots have helped create a space that’s not only mo...
