How to Use Wax Melts

In the County of Fen & Wold, every fragrance tells a story.

Whether you're wandering through a woodland glade at dawn, standing beside the beck beneath silver mist, or settling into a warm cottage as evening draws in, each wax melt is designed to bring a little of that world into your home.

Using your wax melts couldn't be simpler.

Step One

Place one botanical wax melt into the dish of your wax burner. Our melts are generously fragranced, so one is all you need to fill most rooms with beautiful scent.

Step Two

Light an unscented tealight beneath your burner, or switch on your electric wax warmer. As the wax slowly melts, the fragrance will gently unfold, revealing the story hidden within.

Step Three

Sit back, relax, and enjoy the journey. Let the fragrance fill your home as though you've stepped into the quiet lanes, ancient woodlands, and open fens of Fen & Wold.

Changing Your Fragrance

Once the scent has faded and the wax has completely cooled, remove the used wax before adding a new melt.

One of the easiest ways is to briefly light your tealight for around 20–30 seconds, just enough to loosen the wax from the dish. Extinguish the flame and gently slide the wax out before replacing it with a fresh melt.

A Few Gentle Reminders

  • Always use your burner on a heat-resistant surface.
  • Never add water to melted wax.
  • Keep burners away from children and pets.
  • Never leave a lit tealight unattended.
  • Allow the burner to cool completely before handling.

Every melt is hand-poured using our rapeseed and coconut wax blend, finished with carefully selected botanicals, and crafted to turn ordinary moments into memorable ones.

So light the flame, choose your story, and let the County of Fen & Wold find its way into your home.
