ABOUT LEAVES AND PRICKLES

Welcome to leaves and prickles, the home of cacti-inspired decorative candles and DIY terrarium kits!

I’m Monika, the founder and creator behind this small business based in Cheshire, UK. In 2023, I quit my job as an office manager to follow my passion and dedicate myself to leaves and prickles. My business is best known for its cactus candles, which are a popular gift choice among many of my wonderful customers.

I have always been a nature lover, and I wanted to create a life where I can be more connected to the natural world and express my creativity. Thanks to leaves and prickles, I get to make beautiful terrarium candles, sell terrarium kits, and share my passion on social media. My goal is to inspire others to appreciate the beauty of nature and encourage everyone to slow down and notice the world around us.

Whether you're new to leaves and prickles, a returning customer, a social media follower, or have supported me in any way, I'm grateful. Your support means the world to me!

With love, Monika x
