CANDLELIGHT T: +44 (0)1709 723 000 E: contact@candlelight.co.uk www.candlelight.co.uk In anticipation of the year ahead, Candlelight predicts a soaring demand for its innovative candle-making kits. In recent times, there has been a significant shift in consumer preferences, with more individuals expressing a keen interest in crafting their candles rather than solely relying on store-bought options. This burgeoning trend is fuelled by a desire for personalisation and a hands-on creative experience. Candle-making has become a popular and fulfilling hobby, allowing enthusiasts to tailor scents, colours, and designs to match their unique preferences. Recognising this growing enthusiasm, Candlelight has strategically incorporated candlemaking kits into its product offering, seamlessly integrating them into the Apothecary range and the upcoming New Destinations collection. The candle-making kits empower customers to embark on a sensory journey, creating candles that resonate with their tastes and preferences. Whether it’s the traditional allure of the Apothecary range or the global influences captured in the New Destinations collection, Candlelight envisions these kits as the catalyst for a personalised and immersive experience in home fragrance. As we step into the future, Candlelight anticipates these candle-making kits to be a hot commodity, aligning perfectly with the evolving preferences of discerning customers.

TREND FOCUS As we look forward to 2024, the best brands on the market predict what will be hot sellers for the year ahead… PERKINS & MORLEY E: hello@perkinsandmorley.com www.perkinsandmorley.com Jan Morley from Perkins & Morley says: “Looking to the colour of the year from Benjamin Moore, ‘Blue Nova’, as our inspiration, we think that classic appeal and reassurance will be what consumers are looking for in 2024. “They still want to be different however, hence why, our response to the colour has seen us bring out the ‘Maxim Blue’ collection. In a timeless colour palette of blue and cream, we’ve oversized the flowers within the range to make them a true talking point. These are all flowers found within an English garden but with the Perkins & Morley twist.” Maxim Blue collection is available in cards and cushions. LIDO PEARLS LONDON www.lido-collection.co.uk Men’s gifts and jewellery are always difficult to source as the options and ranges can be limited. Rarely do new products enter the marketplace but thanks to the likes of Harry Styles, Love Island, sports, music and media stars, who are often photographed wearing pearls, a whole new trend for men’s pearl jewellery has been created and is growing. Lido will be launching its new range of jewellery for men that features rich colour tones as well as classic white, necklaces, bracelets, rings, brooches and earrings. The collection features casual pieces for everyday, holidays and for those that are just dipping their toes into using jewellery as an accessory, as well as some more decorative pieces for special occasions or for those that are looking to add more statement pieces to their jewellery collection. Great POS, gift packaging and limited-edition pieces will be available to retailers and branded as Lido Pearls London. 105 GIFT TRENDS 2024
