Pet Memorial Candles from IVB

I love these Candles from IVB. For less than the price of a decent bunch of flowers I think they're a much better option to give to clients following euthanasia.

They are hand poured, 100% soy wax and the verse on the inside of the box reads:
"Our pets light a flame of love in our hearts that can never be extinguished".

Once the client has used the candle, the lovely box can be used as a memory box for storing collars and toys or a lock of hair which also means they last far longer than a bunch of flowers.

The memorial candles come in a box of 12 with mixed scents so you can choose one to suit AND they're only $22 per candle with FREE postage!
