Hello August 

August has arrived, and here at So Pure Handmade in Oxfordshire, we’re welcoming the changing season with exciting new additions, beautiful gifts, and plenty of natural inspiration.

For those who are new here, I’m Erika, the maker behind So Pure. Every product is lovingly handcrafted in small batches using botanical ingredients, aromatherapy traditions, and a passion for natural living. My goal has always been simple: to create products that bring a little calm, comfort and wellbeing into everyday life. 

Limited Edition Gift Baskets - Our new gift baskets have arrived and they’re already stealing hearts. Beautifully presented and filled with So Pure favourites, they’re perfect for birthdays, thank you gifts or simply treating someone special.  

Natural Beeswax Meditation Candle Gift Bags- I’m delighted to introduce our new Beeswax Meditation Candle Gift Bags. Thoughtfully curated to encourage moments of stillness and relaxation, these make wonderful gifts for anyone who enjoys mindfulness, self-care and natural living. 

New Essential Oil Reed Diffusers - Bring nature indoors with our new range of vegan-friendly reed diffusers, scented only with pure essential oils. No synthetic fragrances, just beautiful botanical aromas designed to create a naturally welcoming home.

 Autumn Is Just Around the Corner While we’re still enjoying summer sunshine, thoughts are already turning towards cosy autumn evenings. Expect warmer scents, comforting rituals and plenty of seasonal inspiration over the coming weeks.  

More Natural Soy Wax Candles Our candle collection is growing! You’ll find an increased selection of natural soy wax candles featuring beautiful essential oil blends inspired by nature, the seasons and wellbeing.  

Coming Soon: Beautiful Electric Diffusers Soon arriving in the shop are elegant electric diffusers, making it even easier to enjoy the benefits of aromatherapy throughout your home. Pair them with your favourite essential oils and create your own calming sanctuary. 

Soap Making Kits-Ever wanted to create your own natural soap? Our new soap making kits include unique recipes developed by me, giving you the opportunity to learn a traditional craft while making something truly special.

Experiment with natural waxes, explore beautiful essential oil blends and discover the joy of creating your own candles from scratch. It’s a wonderful way to relax, get creative and fill your home with natural scents you’ll love. 

Thank you for supporting my small Oxfordshire business. Every order, visit, recommendation and kind word means the world. Here’s to a beautiful August filled with creativity, wellbeing and the simple pleasures of natural living.
