Say It With Candles
The “I Am Loved” affirmation candle by Innerfyre Co makes a great gift, and with Mother’s Day this month, what better way to show a mum just how much she is appreciated? Warm and luxurious with the scent of jasmine, lily and vanilla essential oils, this candle is made from a sustainable wax blend that contains coconut wax and rice bran wax. Adding to its message of self-care and positivity, the candle also includes a rose quartz crystal – the stone of universal love.

Ask Arete Culture: How to use colour and still create timeless interiors
Did styling your balcony start with the best of intentions, only to become a makeshift storage space? It happens to the best of us. This month, learn how to refresh your outdoor space no matter how big or small it is!
#1 Have a narrow balcony? Opt for a single statement lounger, or a narrow bench and side table set that can be easily moved. A bar table also works for functional dining.
#2 If you’re shopping for outdoor furniture, begin with the materials. I like all-weather resin wicker and solid teak. Live near the sea? Skip iron for stainless steel.
#3 Already have an outdoor set? Pep up the space with soft furnishings! Lighting, cushions, art and mirrors can change the look of your space.
#4 The outdoors is the perfect space to try bolder colours and patterns. Use the same accent colours indoors to facilitate a seamless indoor/outdoor flow. Use no more than three main colours in your outdoor space to maintain a sense of serenity.
Arete Culture’s founder and creative director CAROLINE CHIN GEYLER shares her professional tips on home design and décor.
