Great Little Terrarium Kit

Absolutely loved the small glass-egg terrarium kit. The instructions were clear and genuinely beginner-friendly, and the setup is very satisfying. It now sits on my desk adding a clean, minimal touch of greenery.

Gorgeous pumpkin candle and wax melts

Fabulous candle and wax melts which smell amazing - can’t wait to light it. I previously bought an aloe Vera candle as a present so decided to treat myself this time as they are so beautiful! I ordered online this time and the candle was really well packaged and arrived perfectly intact.

A Message from Monika, Founder of leaves and prickles

I’m Monika, the founder and creator behind this small business based in Poynton, Stockport.
