A short video we made for our Instagram to celebrate World Candle Day on 1st March!
New Cairn Workshop
It's been a busy week at Cairn as we moved into our brand new workshop in Grantown on Spey! We’re beyond excited. Our charming wee steading has been Cairn’s home for a few years now but we’re thrilled to have a little more space, a little more heat and to be putting down roots in the centre of our beautiful hometown. We'll share some pics here now that it is up and running. We plan to have a pop-up shop in the workshop later in the year
How to remove remaining wax from candle container
Whether your candle is in a glass, tin or even an enamel mug, this quick guide will allow you to remove any remaining wax with ease! Gone are the days of attempting to put candles in the freezer and smashing out frozen wax! . We've used our Cairngorms Enamel Mug candle for this example, but this process will work just as well with any other container type. . STEP 1 With only a little wax remaining, fill your candle with boiling water. This will melt the wax and as you wait for the water to cool it will resolidify at the top of the candle

The Cairngorm Collection
We are delighted to be launching the Cairngorm Collection today alongside our very first diffuser and reopening for UK wide delivery! We've spent a load of time putting together this collection. The Cairngorms are our home and we wanted to do it justice, so we had to get it right! These are also our first products to be 100% plastic free with completely biodegradable packaging. Let's meet the first of our trio
The Power of Fragrance – Working From Home
How important is fragrance in the workplace - can it really improve productivity, reduce stress and foster a tranquil environment? We know that every workplace can be tainted with unpleasant smells from time to time but in this journal we’re donning our research hats and looking into the positive impact of good smells
10,000 Trees Planted
Many of you will know that since launching we have been planting trees - one for every glass candle sold. It’s a huge part of what we do and something we feel very passionate about. . We’re delighted to kick start our journal (a new space for sharing the Cairn adventure) with news that we’ve been bursting at the seams to share for some time
