Aromatherapy Candle Making Workshop: Create Your Own Scents Reviews

4.9 Rating 125 Reviews
Read ClassBento UK Reviews

This is a fun activity in Eccles, Manchester

Introducing our candle making workshops, where you’ll learn the basics of aromatherapy and essential oil blending, during which you will make three of your own jar candles!

In a small group of up to 10, you’ll get 2 hours of "you" time to build a skill surrounded by like-minded people in a comfortable, relaxing space.

The workshops start with grabbing a free herbal tea, followed by a tour of our essential oils, their benefits, and the key knowledge of aromatherapy blends as well as scent building. You'll get to make blends until you create 3 custom scents you love, before moving on to product making. Your teacher will then walk you through how to wick your container, scent your wax, and pour your candles, for long-lasting candles with a great scent throw and a smooth finish.

Learn to work with our sustainable and all-natural, coconut and rapeseed wax, cotton wicks, and using pure essential oils, so you’ll be using or gifting the highest quality candles!

We’ll provide all the ingredients, you’ll also get a chance to buy hugely discounted products, and we’ll gift you a code for future workshops and online purchases.

Our recipes are vegan, sustainable, and natural.

Note: Our classes are intended to prepare you for your new hobby. If you wish to start a business or pursue commercial interests, please note that our recipes are for personal use only. We do offer business courses which cover compliance, stability testing, and CLPs, if you'd like to know about them, contact us.

For security reasons, the building is locked during classes. Your teacher will be available to let you in from half an hour prior to the session until class starts. At the start of the class, a herbal tea will be provided, after which doors will be locked and class begins. We will not be able to catch up attendees who arrive more than 15 minutes late, and this will be considered a no-show. Thank you for your understanding.

“My wife and I really enjoyed our workshop with Bruce. First time we had tried a Bento workshop & given us an appetite to try more. Bruce patiently walked us through the process of blending oils, adding to the wax & wicking process. Lots of scents and aromas dancing around our sensory experiences. Wonderful, peaceful & enjoyable experience made all the better by our artisan Bruce!”

“Excellent class, professionally delivered by Bruce. Extremely enjoyable way to spend a couple of hours doing something crafty, that you can gift to family and friends and use in your own home. Great selection of oils to work with. Great info on blending. Perfume aromas are subjective, so what one person might like another might not. My group shared our blends and found there were definitely some blends we all liked. Great that we were able to take away our candles and blending sticks. Love the ethics of this company, everything is reusable and sustainable. I will be booking another course very soon. Relaxed informal atmosphere. Lovely way to spend a Sunday morning. Highly recommended.”
