Juliette has done an interview for us which you can find on the blog on our website and there are also still a few tickets left if you would like to join us tonight Wednesday 19th March at 7pm in our Hill St studios booking link in our profile ✨️
Really looking forward to our next creative talk this Wednesday evening with the amazing Juliette founder of Le Contour contemporary candle company!

About Juliette:
“I began my journey in lockdown of 2020 where, like many of us, I experienced first-hand the importance of being surrounded by things that enrich and encourage us in our day to day lives – namely in our home. This is what prompted the creation of my very first collection, designed to empower women and inclusively celebrate the female form. An ethos I am proud to align my brand to.”
In this talk, Juliette will share her creative story, including the highs and lows and some of the lessons she has learned along the way!
