Nice Cup Of English... Candle???

Found this adorable cup and saucer in a second hand store
I still had some burnt up scented candles lying in the cubboard, melted them and poured it into the cup and now it's a cup of English candle ^__^.

I thought it would be a perfect gift for a friend of mine who will turn 23 soon; she is partly Irish. But I couldn't find anything to do with Ireland which suited her taste but I don't think it's far off because she does study English... as do I. Hope she'll like it.
