This is a fun activity in Shoreditch, London

Join us for a vibe-filled session of scents and socialising. If you love getting hands-on and want to tune into your creative side, come along to this fun London candle making experience. Where good vibes and gorgeous aromas are guaranteed.

During this relaxed and friendly craft class, your friendly teacher will guide you as you learn the art of candle-making from scratch using vegan, cruelty-free, locally sourced materials.

Set in vibrant Shoreditch, your teacher will take you through the process before letting you put your skills to the test as you create your own 6oz scented soy wax candle. Complete beginner? Don't worry, your teacher will be there to help and support you throughout!

Your scent, your way. You get to mix and personalise your fragrance from fresh to cosy and sweet.

After pouring your candle, you’ll personalise it with your own custom label and walk away with your newfound knowledge and a sense of zen! At the end of the class, your scented candle will be ready to take home.

Each workshop will follow the below schedule:

- An introduction to candle making

Teacher was nice, and the atmosphere was cozy. However, this is not a class for creatives; you cannot mix or create custom scents, you cannot design the jar or label, or really anything about the candle. All you do is mix a scent (there's a selection of about 7 of them, all fairly basic) into hot wax and pour it. You also get to pick the name, which is printed onto a pre-designed template for you to stick onto the jar. Easy to do, but not worth 45 pounds.

Really enjoyable class with me and my mum. Our teacher was friendly and also clear with her instructions. I thought we'd create more bespoke scents for our candles, but now understand that's a more complex task/class. The smells they had were nice, I was stuck deciding between 3 which is a good sign. I do think I would have enjoyed more variety of smells - something with sandalwood in it or something smokey - but the smells they did have were great so is a minor complaint.

We had a great time making our own candles for my sister's Hen do! Keisha was a great teacher and the pace of the class was great. Choosing our own scents and naming our candles was such a lovely touch. Would highly recommend the workshop!
